why can't I cope longer?

Ahhh the pros and cons of people.

Good Luck with finding a church.

I am working on staying connected but having less expectations.

I am a pretty sensitive egg.

@Former-Member There is a glitch on the forum. Have not been able to post pics for a day.

Good morning to you too @Former-Member .

Yes I have recovered from my trip away to family. My Mum got out of hospital last Wednesday, but was not permitted at home at that stage. The home care people did not have the expertise or resources to care for her at home then. So we managed to get her transferred from hospital and into a Respite position in a nursing home short term. She is hoping to get home this week, and fingers crossed she has recovered enough to do so.

Good to hear that things are continuing to progress for you too. 🌺

hi @outlander hope work went well on w'end. Didn't know you were juggling a couple of jobs as well. Did you get your pop assessments sorted? Understand the 'wait list frustration, Im currently looking for a new GP in new town i moved to - my first priority dr recommendef to me has a 3month wait list for newbys 😒 , and today an alternative recommendation has closed her books, and there was no apts with ANYBODY in that centre 'till next Wednesday 🤐 Always the good drs booked out of cause, yep, annoying and frustrating.

@Zoe7 missing you. Saw you on the other thread. Hope you can do something special during your school break / holidays.

Hi @Appleblossom , I understand, or relate to sensitive, sorry if I hurt you unintentionally or otherwise. Last thing I want. How did your week go?

Hi @Former-Member Praying for me (or for anyone) is always a kind & thoughtful gesture.

So thank you, that's much appreciated.

I do understand (& agree) with why you needed to block your Br's phone no's.

My brothers have been similarly nasty over the decades, although not as bad as yours.

One of my brothers cut me off for years, & refused to even talk to me - through no fault of mine, nothing I actually said or did.

I have had to block the phone no's of my cousin, who SA'd me - he suddenly repeatedly phoned & emailed me, just before I went into hospital (March this year) for my 4th major surgery.

I have had no contact with this person (my choice), for 8 years - it was a shock, to have him try to contact.

Especially days before I went into hospital.

I'm thinking of you

I don't often find the energy to write much on the forum.

Hi @Former-Member

Im sorry about everything happening in your life atm. I hope that some good news comes your way soon ans also that you'll be able to get in to see a gp and make them a regular as well.

Wait lists and closed book responses are really frustrating and disheartening too hey.

Ill keep my fingers crossed that things start to go your way sooner rather then later 💜

No assessments yet, not till later in the yr unfortunatly but the months seem to be going by quite quickly thankfully so hopefully will get some answers soon.

My dear owl friend @Former-Member . I am so sorry about all the bad news which has hit you today. Thats really rough. To be constantly hit with bad news is really really hard. Sometimes I get that way that I come to expect all news to be bad, with seemingly never anything good happening. But I know thats unrealistic. Somewhere there is some good news, some good things happening. Its so unfair that you are treated as you are by your family members. I dont know why some people are the way they are. It would be nice to change others sometimes, to make them better people. I would do that to my sister if I could. Some of the things she says and does is simply beyond my comprehension, I do not understand her at all I think. If she were not my sister, I would not maintain any contact with her. But she is family, and I guess I still love her as a sister. The sister I would like her to be perhaps, rather than the person she really is? There are certainly occasions where we are better off without some people, and sometimes that happens to be family members, other times ... friends or workmates. Life is very unfair to many of us, and it seems thats the case for you. Some people have everything, others very little. But at the end of the day, its not material possessions which makes us happy. I am sure there is nothing you could ever have done to deserve the treatment you receive, nothing can justify such unfair infliction of emotional pain on another human being, let alone a family member. All you can do is be the good person you are, you dont have to be like them. Be better than them.

I am proud of you for still being able to see the beauty in life, despite what you have to endure. King parrots are splendid creatures. And I am glad that you have clean fresh air and beautiful wild life where you are. Concentrate on that, and not what you dont have .. ie family support and wealth.

Kindness and understanding coming your way.

Sherry 💕🦉
