Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Hey Liz. You're going through the wars at the moment, that's for sure. Are you able to rope in family to help? I have 3 children under 10, so know how hard it is keeping it all together for the family. Mine have become very self sufficient! The older ones shower the little one and they can put themselves to bed when I just can't face the stairs. Fortunately I'm not so bad at the moment, following a dreadful 15 months, so don't forget there's always light at the end of the tunnel, however dark it feels at the moment. I will say a prayer for you. God answers my prayers by giving me wonderful family and friends. Hope this is the case for you too. This group has helped as well. I hope the tests show up what's wrong so you be treated straight away.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Hi Liz, You sure are getting a big dose of the "miseries" at the moment. I think I shall add you to my "amazing women" list that have ailments beyond my comprehension. You and Caroline and Marilyn really are vying for bad days although our Caroline is pretty chipper at the moment. I sure hope you can find something to help you and I hope your family takes special care of you. My thoughts and prayers are with you for better days ahead. Mi.
