Well i survived my angel, i hobbled around the undercover area behind the shed and cleaned all the mold off, i am back at my computer, so i should be safe now 🙂

hugs my angel, what an emotional day you have had today, it is good to know you can still cry, i can only cry now when i am missing you. it is really weird but nice 🙂

Re: catching up

Me too my angel, I can only manage a tear or two, but it does feel wonderful to feel something. Helps to realize their is still some emotion left.

Karen, you are a beautiful soul and an awesome friend, I feel so lucky to have you in my life.

Re: catching up

I just found out that they have brought two men on my case. They will be questioning the girls at some stage and then myself.

How can they be so inconsiderate they know that we all have a fear of men and that they trigger us.
how is this protecting the girls.

I don't have the will to fight these people I will never win

Re: catching up

Oh no Karen,

I know how scared you and the girls are of men, can you speak to the coordinator about this? Or some staff member?

Gosh Karen you really can't seem to get a break, can you.

You and the girls will just have to do your best, that is all you can do, just remember not all men are like your husband, some men are nice too.

I am here for you my friend, we need to just struggle on.

If you like I can be here to support you before and after they interview you.

Re: catching up

Sorry Karen, but what is the exact department these men are with? i will look online how you can request only female workers. no details i just need to know if they are from docs, centrelink, etc?

i will do my best to help you.

i am here for you my angel, just reach out your hand and i will hold it 🙂

Oh I like the picture.
D H S.
department of human services.

Mum said I'll just have to put up with it. She thinks I'll be worse off if I say something.
The meeting is next week.
I am panicking already and really bad thoughts which would make things so much worse. But I don't have a solution.

Re: catching up

I am glad Karen, i thought a visual representation of us holding hands would be much better 🙂

Oh ok, i would ring them and see if they could change to a female representitive, with your background and the girls being uncomfortable near men, i think it would be a reasonable request. but the decision is yours Karen, i think over the past week you have made big progress on your understanding and coping stratagies, i hope they take this into account.

I know what it is like, i do the same, all the worst case senarios, all i can say is it is never as bad as our minds make out it will be.

it never hurts to ask Karen, even if they can get a famale rep for the girls. that way they will feel safe.

Re: catching up

I feel its out of control I will try.

need to keep the dark stuff hidden

Re: catching up

I know how it feels Karen, people are making choices for you and the girls, of course you feel out of control.

Karen, you need to try to be honest, or as honest as you can, i am and will be here for you my friend, anything i can do to help, just let me know.

How are you tonight my friend? are you still feeling emotional? gosh Karen, you are about to go to your class. good luck.

hugs my angel

Jacques
