Better night last night. Elsie still had a crying spell but at least this time she did not verbally attack me. Or destroy anything of mine. She has hidden my books, changed the password on my email, etc. She was able to tell me she did not feel well. It was a lot easier then trying to console her. I hope this is the worst of it. Hopefully we will be able to get her medicated. She is so sensitive to the medicines. All in all the sun is out and we will be taking her to the doctors today so I will be able to get out of the house. So I am keeping my chin up. It always helps to have your good wishes, comments and prayers. Thanks you all so much! |

Here's a hug from me (((((((Cathy & Elsie))))))). Lyn B - that was really beautiful and what good advice. Sometimes when we feel like our life's in the toilet, we need that reminder. God bless.

Elsie saw psychiatrist and psychologist today. Starting her on meds tonight and the combination looks very promising. Talked about what is bothering her and she was bluntly honest! First time she has ever talked for a therapist. YEA!!!! It was a glorious day outside. Clear blue sky, puffy small clouds and quite sunny. Fresh air to boost. I am hoping it is uphill from here! Even got my hair trimmed which made me feel better. Thank you all so much for your love and support. Couldn't do it without you! |

Reember the longest journey starts with a single step. Only other thing I'd say is that when you stay close to your friends on POE you'll never feel alone, or have to struggle on alone. God bless you and Elsie. |

You got through it all and come out the other end a lot richer. You are so nearly there, just keep thinking positive. We are all there with you every step of the way.
