And now my daughter's partner has fallen on the ice ..broken elbow and wrist. No work=no cash=no fun . New baby in the house and Xmas round the corner................I'm not enjoying 2011 one little bit
Thanks Alice. I don't feel guilty, there was nothing I could do. I do feel really sad though.... he was another victim of the big D (depression) and there just isn't enough professional help or counselling available out there to depression sufferers... its always conditional ... apparently he had been told he couldn't access psychiatric help as he had not attempted to take his life previously.... well thats ok then!!! Or it costs ££££££'s that the majority of folk don't have
Suzy reading that has made my blood boil and I'm trying not to get on a high horse because God love him.. he's not the first and won't be the last.. and it's tragic that our loved ones and friends feel they have to cope alone and then take the only option they think is open to them...
Losing your friend.. lovely.. thats hard and must hurt like hell.. but talking about it like this and bringing the issue into the open might help someone else...
There is an organisation called "Someone Cares"... they have their own website and have branches up and down the country... they are are a team of psychiatrits and coundillors or give up their spare time to help people who need it...
Huge huge hugs lovely.. I truly wish it could have been different for him... {{{hugs}}} xx
Friends proving not to be so and hearing from my daughter how little she thinks of me as well as herself. If only they knew what we go through for them as parents and what it feels like to us when they are hurting.
Just makes you wish you had the guts to opt out yourself sometimes
Life can never stay the same No matter how we try Our hands can never stop The clock of life from ticking by But love remains, unchanging In the care of sorrowing hearts For as the love of life is stilled The love of memory starts
It's 1 year today since Ian's brother Mike lost his battle with Cystic Fibrosis, a fantastic guy who would not let his illness stop him from doing anything, sadly died after waiting for a double lung transplant that for him never came.
