Hi. I wondered if there was a way you could keep bad news from the littles if you needed to. I’m glad Liz is helping you out. I know she said that she sometimes didn’t know what her job was in the system, but now she’s helping you in a positive way by helping you to protect the little ones until they need to know. Waiting is very hard, I know. You say your mom doesn’t understand the mental illness-which is something I wondered about-but perhaps Dr. Barry made her understand that you do _have an illness and that you aren’t just faking it or attention-seeking. It sounds like she really does love you and I do pray that you will have time to continue building your relationship. I lost my mother at age thirteen so she never got to see me ggrow up. I like to think she’d be okay with the results. (smile) Nitro sounds like Jamie in that you can’t get a peep out of them when you want them to make a noise. Perhaps I need to turn on the recorder and knock on the front door. When someone comes to the front door, he makes lots of noise, then. Sometimes I think it’s harder on the ones watching the loved one than the loved one, because when you’re in the middle of it, you have no choice but to deal with it head on, but those watching have to deal with their own problems, plus worrying about the loved one. There’s just no getting round it but you just have to occupy yourself the best you can. Surround yourself with good people, good books, good music and Nitro. xxxx

Yes, that is what I need to do is surround myself with everyone I love and some good activities to distract myself during this hard time, thanks for that suggestion Deb, XX
