thanks sweetheart, i used to automatically think i had to call my uncle when things got too hard. now i tell myself i need to deal with this. i dont feel i can turn to him after what happenned last week, and i havent heard from him since i last saw him. i guess its making me stronger and reaching out for supports that i need. i also spoke to my sister tonight on the phone and told her that things are getting worse for mum and that i need to know she is going to be there for me, and mum. as mum is going to need us more than ever.

my mum's older brother came to visit mum today which was nice. i had a talk with him letting him know whats going on with mum. he was more supportive but i dont like to burden him as he is 80 and his wife is in a nursing home. it was nice having him there though.

yes, have a bath woman! i will check up on you tomorrow to make sure you have had one hehe. yep, have been writing stuff down and got some further queries for psych tomorrow. ive actually been reading up on psychotic depression. mum's symptoms mirror a lot of them. its so hard though as a lot of mum's symptoms overlap different diagnoses! aarrgghh

what you doing luv? i hope you're not in too much pain with your hand tonight luv.

i just watched bachelor in paradise hehe ... needed something to watch that i didnt need to pay too much attention to hehe

Re: rough time

Im glad youve got your sister on board and some support even just someone to talk to with your mums brother. Yes your uncle was very unfair. @Bella1978 you can't do it all on your own esp with your mums deterioration. Youve got us here to on the forums as well.

Its hard to know whats what as she has a uti as well. So could be a whole range of things. Hopefully it gets sorted soon.

Im in bed atm. Its chilly here but i have the fan on. Its 1130 here too so not alot on tv but not up for it anyway. Just resting and chatting here.
No i already had pain relief so it should be ok through the night. Headaches still niggly but will see how it goes can take another if needed within half hr so its full strength.
Lol i havent seen that. I usually watch the voice or mkr. I forgot the voice was on. Might be able to watch it tomorrow if it comes on in the day and im home.

haha i am sitting on the sofa with the fan on but am chilly too lol ... it was warm when i got home but not anymore. but i cant be bothered getting up! haha so lazy i am sometimes 🙂 i'll just put up with the cold until i hit the sac.

yep, has been a big deterioration in mum in such a small amount of time. and even harder because, as you said, could be a range of things!

oh im glad to hear u had pain relief luv. have some of your other forum friends come back online? i recall you saying some hadnt been on much lately.

ooh i watched the voice on saturday night - it was good! but am a bit addicted to bachelor in paradise *hangs head in shame* hehe

much planned for tomorrow?

Re: rough time

Lol. I find i overheat too quick. It has to be pretty cold for me @Bella1978 we have aome colder rainy days coming up o wont need thr fan then but ive alwayz got to have cover over me. Strange human.
Yeh they flick on and off but not chatty which is ok. Just good to know they are at least still around. Im worried about a few but im hoping they are ok and will pop in when they can. You one of my close connections too btw. I worry when your not online as much too.
A like here and there is fine with me.
Lol it good to watch the tv series from the start.i like im a celebrity get me out of here and use to like big brother when it was on.

Hmm not alot planned. Mums bot at workbut mught spend some time with her and the kids while they are still on holidaya. More then likley watch kids ride. Yay..... sigh.
And a bath is on the agenda too.
What about you?

In response to: Re: rough time

Re: rough time

haha @outlander ... im the same.i just went and turned on my electric blanket ... and my fan 🙂 me special! when its cold i turn the fan away from my bed though 🙂 me no silly! lol

i just ate about half a dozen starbursts. enough lollies for tonight me thinks. theyre really hard to chew too!

its hard on these forums when we dont hear from someone as we have no other way of contacting them and we dont know whats happenned. but we form very special connections here.

you are also one of my close connections sweetheart *mwah* ... and i always worry when i dont hear from you. aaw thank you for thinking of me - when im not online much it will be cause im so tied up with mum and just dont have any energy in reserve to do anything when i get home. tonight was good though, i was able to just chill on the sofa and chat with you 🙂

haha i still remember the first ever big brother! that was good 🙂

funny thing is, i didnt watch bachelor in paradise when it started as i swore that i wasnt going to watch it ... hmmmmm .... as we can see that didnt last long! and its getting close to the end now!

aaaw, doesnt sound like youre too keen on your plans tomorrow 😞 when do kids go back to school? yes, u must have a bath!

i will no doubt see mum, but will go in the arvo. will have a break in the morning for some me time. im going to go the jeweller as last week i dropped off mum's wedding and engagement ring to get fixed. they had to be cut off her finger a very long time ago as she had an infection. mum gave them to me and i so want to wear them so i have a piece of her with me. not too much else planned at this stage. will hopefully have a bit of a sleep in - that be nice! my sister is coming over on wednesday to help with housework so i aint gonna bother with that tomorrow.

oh me starting to get sleepy luv. how much do you want to bet that i go to bed and am wide awake? haha

Re: rough time

That is more than enough sugar lol @Bella1978
Youll be up for a whilr i think. Im getting tired too but have enjoyed our chat tonight too. Worth staying up for.
Lol its funny we often dont want to to watch something then we do and end up stuck to it.

No not keen much. I do hope they ride though havent ridden for 2 weeks now and with rain coming wont get much chance through the rest of the week. They go back next week.

A sleep in souds good and a bit of a rest too. NO cleaning that can wait. Maybe some mosiacs for half hr or an hr would be good for you.

Try to sleep or at least rest. Gnight 😴❤

Sweeeeeeeet dreams 😁 xxxx
