Re: not coping

They generally do @outlander The odd one or two that forget but there is always 2 of us out with them to keep them in line - literally - it often looks like they are all connected one behind each other and of course they have no fear so the faster the better

Re: not coping

Evening @outlander it's a bit hard to be here so I'll see how I go. I was on earlier today but it was just a bit too triggering. Even just writing that is upping the heart rate so that's the last I'm going to say about it.

I'm really glad to see you sought out some advice, but also you've taken matters into your own hands and have made some wise decisions. If your dementia course is being repeated might be best to do it in July. Give yourself some breathing space to deal with your current issues.

You have some amazing responses and support from @Zoe7 and @Former-Member as well as @Former-Member. So I'm not going to add anything further. Just some hugs because I'm proud of you and to let you know how much you are loved. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Re: not coping

Understand @Sans911 but still so good to see you - even if it is just for a little while and in the background for now. Sending you lots of gentle hugs and a whole lot of love

Re: not coping

I know its hard for you atm @Sans911 but I super appreciate you coming in even with some likes. I was worried about you

sending heaps of squishy sis hugs and a spare chair if you want to come sit with me? with or without words is ok

Evening @Former-Member I have been looking out for you today too. Been worried about how you were. I'm sorry that your dinner was so unpleasant.
