Update
Hi Everyone.
Im feeling a lot better this week. My spirits have been up and its thanks partly to the wonderful support I've found here. I've been pretty busy at my childrens school decorating for the christmas concert and doing all the last minute christmas things for the kids. My mom, sisters and I spent a night out shopping which was sad and fun the same time. My husband is due home any minute (he works at sea) and will be in for four weeks. So between all of this, I've decided to kick this in the A__! with God's help and everyone else's. It gets overwhelming but I have gone to my doctor for the help I need and it brings me back to reality when I cant breathe. Reading everyones posts, some are really fighting and others are doing fantastic, you all give me my inspiration that I can face what the future holds. I plan to sit in the audience at my daughters graduation, she just started school this year. I WILL DO WHAT I NEED TO. All your advice and information has given me my power.
Thank you everyone.
Dawn
