I just read the post about not having family support. I don't have much
family support either because I don't have much family. I do have a great
husband and mother for support, although I think they are getting tired of my
being ill. My mother is not in great health herself and my husband is doing
most of "my" work around the house. I am an only child and there aren't any
cousins or extended family. Even tho we have never met, I think of this
board as family. I have been on sick leave for 2 years so I haven't been in
touch with any friends either. It gets so depressing to feel yucky all the
time and then people don't want to be around you. I feel as tho I will make
everyone else depressed, too. I have made all of you my sisters, without
your knowledge, and come here when I feel in need of some uplifting. I read
the posts the first thing each morning, every morning. I do have a son who
hasn't spoken to me in over 15 years, and a daughter who only calls when she
wants money. Well that is probably enough whining, even for you guys, on my
part. I will try to go back to bed as it is only 5:15 a.m. Just wanted you
women to know YOU are my sisters. If you ever need anything or just want to
talk, feel free to get hold of me. Sisters in Pain...Love and hugs to all of
you.
