    Just checking to see if FG had posted, sad to see she hasn't.

    I'm a member of another forum and one night a guy (a regular) posted to say he'd overdosed, the mods were alerted and they were able to trace him and inform the police. Thankfully the op's brother turned up at his house just before the police did, the guy got help and posted the next day.

    frankie, I hope you're feeling better and can post soon just to let us know you're okay.

    Gosh it never crossed my mind she would be hasty about coming back. Fg if you are reading this and are reluctant to post - Tandraigs suggestion was greatxxx

    Do let us know you are ok if you feel up to it

    The OP may not be logging in. If they are could I very carefully suggest that reading a lot of posts on her thread begging her to let the poster know she's ok or to PM them may just cause her unbearable additional pressure on the bad place she finds herself in.

    Of course, simple messages like 'My thoughts are with you' can be a help.

    Sometimes we have to accept that there are some things we just can't know.

    Please take this in the spirit that's intended.

    I can understand what you're saying Errata.

    But hopefully she will take it for what it is and know that she has a lot of support here if and when she wants it or is ready for it.

    I think it's very touching that everyone is so worried, i am sure she is fine. She obviously cares a lot about her kids and other people in general so i think she knows that actually doing it would hurt everyone.
    That's not to say it hasn't seriously crossed her mind, i just don't believe for a second she'd be that selfish. From her other posts she's very clearly a lovely caring person. Looking forward to hearing back from her.
  • hope all is okay with Frankiegirl .Hasnt been online for a few days!
    Anyone any idea?

  • frankie,
    i understand were your coming from sooo much. im 21 now but up til i was 18 i was healthy at the gym, in college, etc and when i was 18 i ended up in hospital with bowel obstructions. since then iv spent most of the last 3 years in hospital with bowel obstructions and pain. now im on morphine for the pain and iv been told nothing can be done as a operation to help is caused the problems in the begining.
    its so hard to cope with but youv got to keep going. my own gp has said to me hes surprised i havent tried to hurt myself but as i said it may be hard but there is no real choice.
    sorry to babble just wanted you to know you are not alone.
    pm me if you want to talk.

    no email - sorry peeps
  • I've just read the entire thread and wanted to let frankiegirl know that children can be selfish, it doesn't mean they don't love her and need her - especially her 12 year old son, who sounds like a very loving little boy.

    Look after yourself frankiegirl x
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!
