Catherine, a while ago my wife began to suffer from panic attacks. She used some tapes from a wonderful woman called Dr Weekes - and they really helped her.

If you think Elsie might benefit, I'd be happy to send them to your email address.

Paul - we have a lot in common! I stuttered when I was a kid, too. It made my life hell.

I wrote a piece about it here:

I feel for your wife, John. I developed panic attacks during my pregnancy. Haven't had many since then.

Thank you all so much for your prayers, good wishes and advice. It really means a lot to me. I read your thoughts to Elsie tonight.

She was a little embarassed that I spoke of her but I tried to explain to her what a wonderful bunch of people you are and how lucky she is that her mom has such good friends. Smile

John, I don't know if she would listen to them but we could try. She is at that stage where she knows best. You can contact me through my profile. Thanks.

I'll pray too, Cathy.  Everything seems like the end of the world when you're 16 - it's a tough age.

My daughter is at the point of not wanting to be here anymore. She is so very depressed and hurt as her parents divorce continues on. She is so hurt by the lack of care from her father and his parents. And also the lack of financial support from her father. She is also suffering from a chronic illness creating a lot of stomach pain and nausea. Please, please pray for her. It hurts to see her so unhappy when at 18 she should be on top of the world. Cry

Oh Cathy! That is so tragic.   I will pray like crazy for her. 

The children do seem to feel the lack of care of a parent as a total rejection of them and it does their self esteem so much damage.  Even my little grand daughter who was only 11 months at the time her father walked out says she feels totally rejected, that she isn't good enough or not lovable enough, etc. etc.

Life can be very difficult, can't it.  So as you were there for me, I am here for you Cathy, take care of yourself too! Kiss

I'm sure you can't.  I have had a day like that so far when it all seems so overwhelming and you wonder where you will get the strength from!  I feel for you from the bottom of my heart.
