Re: RE: Darkness surrounds me
Hi @Former-Member,
I am sorry you had to go through that with your daughter. It is such a fine line to tread with meds, something that I probably are not as careful as I should be with.
I love handmade quilts and only do them by hand. I can sew them but enjoy the process of making them by hand. I have some pics somewhere, will just have to hunt around fot them.

@Sans911hugs sweetie. I know what you are going through and it is super difficult. To know that you are good at your job, love it, but just are not well enough to do it. Hugs sis ![]()

Hugs @Sans911 - @Former-Member is right, it is very difficult and dealing with the grief of loss of the life we had.....always here for you.
Sewing a quilt by hand is quite amazing @Former-Member. You must have a lot of patience. Look forward to the pics when you have a chance.
I meant to say in an early post (sorry I am so slow to respond sometimes) - what a lovely gesture to bake food and have your children deliver it to their elderly neighbours. This would truly would of made their day. Older people feel invisible and forgotten a lot of the time and what you did there was really special. What a beautiful example of respect and care for your children. We need more people in the world like you. Do you live in the country?

Re: RE: Darkness surrounds me
So hubby has left. Was proud of myself and waited till he had gone before the leaky thing happened. At the moment I feel ok. Hopefully that lasts into the night.
I have my favourite teddy on the bed ready to go for some cuddles if I need them ![]()

@Former-Member My son gave me a 'poop cushion' which I cuddle up to every night. It looks like this ...
