hi Rach....sorry i`ve not been back on......been too sore and tired....waaaah!
see our lesa`s not so good either ,praying tomorrow gets off to a good start ,and she`ll be back ,fitter and brighter once treatments are over.
So pleased you`ve got yourself sorted..i worry soo much about becca....you`d think at least ONE of the dammed therapists she`s seen ,would either admit her ,or take some REAL action to get her well.....if it`s not one thing here ,it`s another!
Anyways ,just want you to know how much i appreciated your kindness the other morning....i think i was at an all time low.......still ,these things have to pass ,right?:)
You take good care of you.....big ((((((hugs)))) ,to you and Maddie....bet she`s getting ready for school soon?:)
much much love to you both too ,always..yf..sharon xoxoxoxooxoxoxoox
