I believe that too Az.It's the early years of my only Grandchild's life we can't get back.I can't even tell others I am a Grandmother when my 9yr old daughter is around...she starts crying and says that we don't see him and that she misses her brother .It's hard for her and my other 2 sons

Very sad iza and I clearly recall what happened.

I hope that one day soon it will all work out for you.

punch ♥ .... I remember her like it was yesterday

Thanks TS and Az. .

Catmad, I did feel kind of down afterwards (hormones were not involved in my case)...it was the end of a big part of my life and the start of a new one.

The day I had the surgery I attented a Mother's day event at my Daughter's kindergarten in the morning...it felt kind of ironic .

twinks, did you know my grandpa died? A couple of weeks ago, not sure if you knew him or not?

I have been going through his old photos and there are some lovely ones of mum that I dont remember seeing before....from when I was really young. Gonna get some framed I think 🙂

oh no 😞 I am so sorry.  I have searched but have none of your mum, just your dad with those huge side burns lol

thanks ♥

yes....dad and those sideburns, very funny.

My favourite season cat.  Hope you are able to get out and soak it up.  I'm about to get into the garden

Now Pepe, that was in no way meant to hurt Deb, I was just warning everyone that purple is in a very fragile place at present, and I was hoping she would stay out of here until things got better for her.

 

Deb really nothing more than a warning.. I was afraid she would say something and didn't want anyone hurt.

 

Sadly she spoke up for herself and didn't express herself as well as she might, so now there is discord.  Please don't feel badly about this.

 

These sorts of things happen when someone is going through a very fragile time, and there is little that one can say that is right or good or even supportive. 

 

This thread will have hiccoughs along the way, it is a very fragile thread and people will be hurt and misunderstand others.. it's what happens.

 

(((((hugs))))) everyone

I understand your intentions weren't to hurt, but she hasn't posted here since so i'm thinking it probably DID hurt her.
public humiliation will do that.

If this thread is going to work as a place of support for EVERYONE then EVERYONE should be treated with equal respect, understanding and sensitivity.

Hurting and grieving is not a free pass to be a **bleep** to those who are simply offering support, even if they have misunderstood a situation.
