sf - you're another Tiffling I'm keeping my eye on.;) You've done a lot lately angel - make sure you treat yourself a little.

Don't worry about me I have so much on at the moment, that if I think about myself for more than a minute, I might break down and never want to go and face the world again. So, I try and concentrate on others. -sigh- I hope you're alright and having a good day. x x

Hi ethel hun!
Oh sweetheart - I'm so sorry to hear your news.:o I just saw your post. I hope DS comes through it all safely and quickly ethel. You're probably in physical and mental overload hunnie, so I'll try to be brief - now wouldn't that be a first?!:rolleyes:

Of course you're bound to be reeling from the shock of it all hunnie. Just be prepared to have it come over you in waves angel and to run through every emotion that there is, ok?

If I know you at all, I know this is something you've been dreading might happen - you were even getting DS help. You have done nothing but the best by your children angel.:T :A
The first person we blame is always ourselves hun. Sadly, it has nothing to do with having common sense ethel.
You have nothing to feel bad about hun, although you probably won't agree with that atm. Re-running the whole situation and trying to make sense of it all now, will be of no help to you atm.

You need to focus on getting over this shock. It's back to basics for right now hun - hour by hour, ok?
Feel free to rant over the unfairness of it all - it's only natural - just don't bottle it up ethel hun.

Take your time making any decisions sweetheart. Let's get DS well & back on his feet first angel and the rest can be worked out later.

And like you ethel, I'm grateful for the one blessing in all of this - thank God he didn't succeed!

Post when you can - we understand if you can't.
Well, this was nearly short!:o :rolleyes:
You know that everyone here will be thinking of you ethel and sending you huge love and support. You mean so much to so many of us.:T So, this is ethel's place whenever you need it, ok angel? You'll always have somewhere to turn hun.;)

Keeping you and the family in my thoughts and prayers sweetheart.
Much Love,
Tiff xxx

Ethel ((((((hug)))))) Thinking of you.Please don't be blaming yourself,you are not a bad mum from what i have seen you are a GREAT mum doing the best you can to help both your children.As someone has said both childrens teenage hormones will be going haywire and maybe there is something in them and that means they are on overload in your children?As you said it would be impossible to spend every minute with your ds so maybe it is best he goes to hospital and gets some treatment and therapy, it is not suprising after all you have been through with your dd that it has has had an affect on him as it will have done on all of you.Just wondered if you have been through any family therapy? maybe this would be an idea along with any other treatments your dd and ds have.

Hi,
Man flu is under control. It's such a shame that I'm home today, what with England playing this afternoon. But it's not on the tv. I could go mad and go to the chemist (pub).

Hugs to everyone

Ethel:
I am so sorry that your DS has done this. You certainly seem to be having a bad streak of luck girlie. But no-one does more for their kids than you have been. We all see what you have done and are all wishing that things ease.

:hello: Everyone,

Hope everyone is well and ok I am fine I went to college today to craft and printed off some Halloween Jokes and borrowed a spooky Ghost from a shop in the town which was nice of them I took it back to them after I had finished with it.It gave my craft teacher an idea as well so it was worth it

CCstar: I made a spell book today out of half a cereal box and black paper and some material which had witches,bats,village on it and there is paper inside where we can add recipes to do with Halloween and my jokes as well,so that was fun to do

*hugs* to those that need one

Have a lovely evening


love and light,

Hello everyone

I wasnt around on here yesterday and was expecting lots of threads to catch up on but seems it was very quiet.

Hope that it was quiet for good reasons that everyone was busy.

Ethel I am so sorry about your son and thank goodness he didnt succeed. He can get the right help now and is in the best place to be able to help him. No matter how good we are as parents and I beleive every parent is marvelous it is impossible to be able to watch over there children 24/7 so dont feel guilty about it. How is he doing now? How are you bearing up? :grouphug:

SF - Sorry you havent been too good sweetie. Did you manage to get some sleep in the end?

Katie - Your craft class seems like fun. Glad that you enjoyed it.

I am going to meet my friend and we have a good chat while our little ones have a play so looking forward to that. I have also had my counselling appt come through which is really fast but I cant make it next week as we are on hol. I feel quite guilty though as some people that need it more than me are having to wait a long time and mine has only taken about 8 weeks (they said would be around 14). They have sent a form for me to complete about my feeling and thoughts etc to take to my first lesson. I feel a bit of a fraud as since my meds I feel almost back to my usual self but prior to starting the meds I would have agreed with most of the things on the form.

Have a nice day everyone and massive hugs to everyone that needs them.
