Mel - I have a sort of shrine too for storm, with her memory box and all that stuff, I have had a thing for butterflies since i put one at her grave, so they are everywhere around her memory box (& the house too! LOL!)
Lynn - glad you have got a good OB & the appointment went well
Spring - It's alright, I have a thing with needles too!
AuntieM - I'm glad being here at BB is helping you some!
Aunty M - big to you. I am so glad that you have found comfort in our little group. I know it helped me through the tough days and I also find that I am alot closer to these girls than friends I have had for years. I guess because everyone here 'gets' me and understands, whereas friends can only imagine and I don't even think you could imagine pain like this. I am sure Yeti will send you messages soon. It is lovely when we get messages from our angels.
Spring - you were right! I did get a giggle out of your needle story. You are so funny! I used to be like you (ok maybe not as bad ) but I guess when you have the amount of needles I have had now, you get used to it. I hope you never have to go through that!!! I am glad that scan went well. I can understand how hard it is seeing lil Spring on the screen and it bringing up emotions of Harry.
Auntie M: I am so happy to hear that our little group brings you comfort. I am an addict, I tell you if I don't get my BB hit I get really anxious. Like Lynn said it is because the ladies here understand and you don't have to explain the way you feel, we just know exactly what you mean. It is also great that you managed to get through supper (we call it dinner over here in Aus) without crying. That may seem like a small thing but it is a huge achievement and shows that you are making small steps in the right direction.
Jo: I also have a bit of a shrine for Harry. It is in our bedroom and has his urn, teddies, a special box full of his memories, a necklace from Mel, some Police Recruit badges from his daddy. I kiss him morning and night. The other night I said to DH I want to put a blanket around his urn because it is so cold. I thought it might be a weird thing to do but DH said to do it because it felt right.
Lynn: I swear I admire you and the other ladies who have had to self inject, I don't know how on earth I would do it if I had to. I have to get my Anti D injection tomorrow and then hopefully that is it for a while.
Spring - I just wanted to say that I have a little bunny rug wrapped around Asha's urn. It is one of those ones that has a little built in teddy on it. DS bought it "for the bubby" when I was about 5 months pregnant. I always have it wrapped around the urn and the little teddy arms kind of hug it. It kind of makes me feel like her big brother is looking after her and keeping her warm. A bit silly, but I too think it just feels right. I cannot believer your ticker...it is just flying. Only 100 days to go!
Auntie M - I too am glad that you are feeling welcome here. Like the others have said, I doubt very much I would have made it through the last 7 months if I hadn't found BB and these girls. Shrek was great, it wasn't as good as the 2nd one which I think is hilarious, but I really enjoyed it. I love kids movies, and was so excited when DS got the age where I can use him as an excuse to go to the movies and watch them.
Lynn - How are you feeling? Have you got any signs of MS yet? I am sure it will hit you like a tonne of bricks very soon.
Mel - Yep, I love kids movies, especially the Pixar and Dreamworks ones. How good are they? We have been watching Flushed Away alot lately, that is a good one too. GP visit was just so the doc could sign all the forms for the referral to the womens hospital, nothing exciting, oh other than a breast check. Lol.
Flowerchild - Yep, it is hard when you are constantly being checked up on isn't it? I actually ended up telling my mum today...while we were driving, which wasn't smart, lol. She is so excited, but knows me and my hate of fuss and attention well enough to not make too much fuss. I had to tell her, cos she was starting to harass me about where we were going to go on holidays this year (mum, DS and I usually go to Bangkok shopping at the end of the year) so I just buckled. It was never that I didn't want her to know, it was more that I didn't want her worrying about me worrying. She was so excited and just bursting but trying to hold it in. So I let her tell my aunties, lol, she really needed to get it out. It is actually a relief to have told her, now I know I don't have to pretend I am alright when I am not, and now its out, I can go and see my uncle about the NLP too, which I want to get into.
Hello to everyone else too.
Another horrible day today, though not complaining I promise. I am going to try some of those sea-sick bands from the chemist tomorrow and see if they help. Has anyone tried them before??
