Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Ooooh ..... not so good .... still on a huge roller osster of events .....

D1's wedding us around the corner, and it looks like D3 has just failed her second last hurdle. to high School graduation in two weeks .....for health reasons ..... but not enough to avoid the consequences ..... feeling numb and waiting to hear if the school can help us pick up the pieces in time .... 😳😁😔

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Sorry to hear that @Faith-and-Hope. You've worked so hard to help her over all the previous hurdles. It must be gutting to think she may not make it over the final ones. I hope you get a good outcome. Thinking of you

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

The stress caused by my hubby's undiagnosed mi and resukting behaviour and relationship issues has been the biggest impact on D3's health and focus ..... but without the diagnosis we can't claim for the extenuating circumstances.

It feels so unfair that her graduation may have become part of the collateral damage .... I don't know how she will cope .... and she's one of the bridesmaids .....

Just breathing deeply, sitting tight, and hoping the school can talk TAFE into allowing her a re-sit in time to graduate .....

And drinking lots of coffee ..... ❤

If coffee is your only crutch you are doing VERY well! Pretty soon you'll know the outcome and have a good plan in place for whatever direction she needs to go. And the wedding will be a great memory and the source of loads of wonderful photos.

And then maybe you can put your feet up for a little bit and enoy the view from the cafe. You'll truly deserve it @Faith-and-Hope.

Sounds like heaven to me @Shaz51 ..... ❤


@Former-Member

Coffee ..... friends on forum ..... faith and hope .....

Hangin' in there .....

Sure gives me an appreciation for this limbo called "denial" ..... and ours is more manageable than what others go through ....

Man ! Can't wait to get to the next stage, but not sure what's waiting for us there either .... probably a mixed blessing .....

Almond milk latte with vanilla and cinnamon pleeeaase .....
