    Thanks bubbs, long process- but she is getting there, depression is a horrible unseen illness- where if you had a broken leg people would know you were suffering and poorly- not that she wants sympathy but she is fed up with people telling her to pull her socks up and smile- if only they knew!! she also had legs ulcers due to an undiagnosed dvt and a type of malaria whist on honeymoon 4 years ago- therefore pain, ulcers, depression and suicidal - a vicious circle :( and shes only 32. It impacts on the whole of the family, but I try not to let it get me down
    Hugs to you & your dd xx
