Re: Taking the plunge
Oh no @Maggie. That's a big curveball 😖 What a way to end the week. When did you find out counsellor couldn't make it today? On some record, feeling OK enough sounds pretty good for what could have felt pretty not-good. How is your afternoon looking?
I did have my appt today, thank you for remembering 🙂 She said a giant sized "no" to surgery and said everyone will say the same (because of my age) but I have an appt early next week with a specialist Dr to do my contraceptive though which is a good idea and may help with the cycle stuff 🤞. And I'm now chasing up a psychiatrist referral that was made in December but magically disappeared 😑 Productive and well worth it appointment for me today.
It's gross hot and humid weather here today. How's it where you are?
It's good to hear from you. You've been on my mind today ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
I only found out at 9 am @CheerBear .:I knew she had a sore throat, but it’s worse. She tries so hard to be accommodating. I feel not good, but there’s nothing I can do. I can’t go myself, thought of it, but it’s definitely not a goer. Bugger.
I guess the dr does have a valad point. You don’t know what the future holds, and surgery is final. The contraceptive sounds like a better choice for the time being. Hopefully, it helps with the dreaded monthly. 🤞🤞🤞
Hot and muggy here too. Awful actually.
Thanks for your thoughts, much appreciated. I’m trying to move my sorry butt to the chemist. I still have a sty in my eye, considerably smaller, but annoying. I need the antibiotics and cream the dr gave me last week, or the week before????
Good luck with the chasing. I’m doing that all the time. I put things away ....safely. Never to be found again....magic. 😁😁😁

Oh @Maggie that is disappointing Hon. Glad it is on record now though and you can follow up later when you and your counsellor are able to. Much love, strength and hugs for you

Re: Taking the plunge
Morning @CheerBear @Zoe7 @Former-Member @outlander @Faith-and-Hope @Gazza75 @Zoe7 @TheVorticon @eth ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️Coffee is ready.
@CheerBear I have good news. If it works out, and I think it just might 🤞🤞🤞
Counsellor rang yesterday and has organised for people in blue to come at 9 am today to take details and put it officially on record. She will be here also, regardless of her cold. She felt it was important before she goes away for the week.
I’m nervous and relieved, both at the same time. I’m hoping it will make going out that bit easier, knowing I can do more, if necessary. 🤞🤞
Sending ❤️❤️ To all.

Re: Taking the plunge
Really glad to hear that your counsellor has organised it and I hope everything goes OK today @Maggie. I'm also hopeful for you that it will help. Do you have something nice /gentle/self-care-like planned for yourself later in the day?

Re: Taking the plunge
The only thing that could stop the people in blue coming, is if there is a crime or emergency, always a possibility @CheerBear
Rattled is possibly close to how I’m feeling.
No early morning meeting, but there is a day seminar. I might go to part, not sure if I can stretch that far today.
How are you going?
How did yesterday end up?
Did you find the referral?
Another hot/humid day here I think
