    Pcl I am so sorry; I feel I sort of "knew" Whitney, and tbh, I'm typing this through a haze of tears.

    (((HUGS))) to you and to Chloe.

    I have started to have a cleaner in my house. :). some people i know dont really understand why, but they dont seem to understand anytyhing about my illness and family, more so than friends just dismiss it as me being a bit lazy. does anyone havethat problem. feeling like yu have to justify why you msy need help in some areas?
    I'm jealous. Of the cleaner, not the crappy response you're getting from folks who should know better (but usually don't cos they don't listen when you're telling them what's wrong with you...:rolleyes:)
    It's not just you. Some people react with horror when I so much as mention using a wheelchair - even while I've got a knackered ankle! Others use it against you, in an "well you weren't well enough to do xyz so there was no point me mentioning going to abc with you..." sort of thing.:cool:
    I used to get the "you're just lazy/faking/hamming it up" all the time for the not working thing....still do sometimes. I think sometimes we run out of words to try and explain/help them understand and have to just cut them off from bringing us down with the negative energy...?:confused:

    jaz it sounds like you're having similar issues as hubby was having with his laptop, which was fixed (apart from needing a replacement battery) with the help of a replacement power pack cable.

    You know I'm thinking of you pcl

    pcl reading between the lines..... I said I admired you for the way you kept her going, I suspect that you let her go, far harder. I feel for you. Give chloe a huge cuddle and be good to yourself.

    BZ you are so right! I've made a promise to myself to stay away from people who drag me down and make me feel bad about myself. I hope your poor ankle is starting to improve - you must be near to climbing the walls by now.

    Saucy sorry you're having a carp day. I can only hope that it gets better this afternoon.

    Pcl Mr LW has asked me to convey his condolences.
