    Just wanted to pop in to see how everyone is - pleased that there has been some good news on here pigpen and that your sister is better.

    Think I've spiralled into depression now - went into work this morning having not eaten breakfast again cos I felt sick about going to school and having had nightmares all night, and burst into tears in the toilet. Luckily had PPA time this morning, but my colleague asked me how I was and I burst into tears again! Tried to make a doctor's appointment at lunchtime but have to call back again tomorrow after 2pm. Fingers crossed they can help.
