Re: Eileen, Jodi R., again! :o)

[Guest guest]

oh sorry about that...it was someone else who said she was super tiny....but

it's ok ..she is...I thought that was a nice description!!

I'm sorry you have anxiety attacks.....I suffered from depression in Immi's

early years....couldn't enjoy her early babyhood which is such a shame looking

back as she was such a lovely baby....but I was too bogged down in worries about

what her height and mental ability would be. Still, it's all understandable.I

had a bit of a worry over Immi today because she didn't eat her dinner....then 2

hours later she say's 'I'm hungry' But like ordinary kids she doesn't want

anything healthy to eat....she's after crisps and chocolate!!! So I had a bit of

a shout at her about it because the last thing I want is for her to have to have

that tube put in again.. She doesn't understand my anxieties of course because

she feels fine!

By the way...I looked through all the photos on the site last night and there is

one (kim uk) who is now grown up but there's a pic of her when she's about

7.....and she looks almost exactly like Imogen in that pic....especially the

hair and shape of face.....It's comforting to see that as an adult Kim doesn't

look any different from anyone else (hi kim if you're reading this!)

Anyway...love to you and ...Imogen's dad is andrew...!

Hi Eileen. It's me again. Are you tired of me yet? Hee, hee.

Anywy, I just read your posts, and wanted to tell you that

also started out with the tube in his nose. Yes, I have to agree

with you, it was awful. I had to be able to put his tube in, too,

and I hated doing it. It would always seem to get stuck at a certain

point and I would have to pull it out, and try to redo it, with

steady hands mind you! Yeah, right. I knew that he needed it, but I

didn't want to have to be the one putting it in! You know!?

Also, I'll play taddle tail. I didn't say that Imogen was super

tiny. That was someone else. Heck, I didn't even realize her weight

until you just said that in the last post! Okay, I am not all that

observant. ) So, as long as she is doing well, I think that is

great. I would LOVE for to reach that point. I want him off

this tube as soon as possible.

I am glad that you responded to my posts. It is great to hear such a

positive perspective. It makes me think that maybe we will make it

through this. ) I know we will, but do you ever get bogged down

by it all? For me, I get to the point where I literally feel

smotthered. Like, I can't breathe. It is weird, and I guess they

call it some kind of anxiety. I forget what the name of it is. I

get over it though and I am fine. No one really realizes that I have

it because I deal with it privately. I don't like to complain too

much. Okay, maybe a little. Hee, hee.

Take care and I hope to hear from you soon,

Jodi R.
