Re: not coping

Yes @outlander and we’re staying in a fancy resort which should be much better than hospital.

I read somewhere that you have a birthday gift to go away. Are you going?

Re: not coping

Yeah @Eve7 my sister has one of those personalities.
Im not scared to go but i cant understand why youd be though. I hope that settles once you leave too.
Mines more the numb 'meh' feeling. Struggling to show any feeling for it at all, trying to in front of mum because its a nice gesture and not cheap.
