It's been an emotional day. i have lots of updates. We're rallying around Holly :)
Hi angel friends :) i've got some new updates about Holly. big group comforting hug! today has been a rollercoaster of emotions, so i'm just gonna flow with the day, as it's been happening, with the latest updates, and the progress forward :) We're all keeping positive :) Definitely having a FULL baking friday adventure tomorrow :) Thank you angel friends, for sticking with us :) Holly is currently in a crisis intervention unit at GMBC emergency department.
thank you all for all of your loving care, support, prayers, well wishes, and for the comforting and uplifting blessing, of being her for us all, during these times :) it's been an emotional stretch. You all are keeping us strong, focused on good health, healing, and keeping us all, going forward each day, with determination for good health, togetherness, and so much more to look forward too :) it helps me so much, to write, no matter what times are going on. whether it's spirited days, emotional days, or challenging times. Thank you all for welcoming us into your hearts, and for being a special part of our hearts :) it's personally been one of the toughest times for me, with all that's been going on with Holly's health, and also grieving the passing of our dear friend Carol (mycat). having family, friends there, and keeping us all surrounded by love, care, and support, it helps so much, and is helping me keep strong for everyone, and myself :) i have some new updates, on how Holly is doing :) it helps me so much and brings me comfort, to know, i can write here in my journals, about her health, healing journey, and all we are looking forward too, together :) Holly and i had a heart-felt talk last night, and this morning :)
Lots happening today, that's been a rollercoaster of emotions. Holly's daughter Kim drove to Margie and Chet's home this morning. They called the sheppard's pratt ED hospital, and told Holly, they couldn't admit her, due to her not having a permanent address. She left Regina's, and is staying at Margie and Chet's. they said, she needs permanent address to apply for the ED hospital inpatient care. Holly was very upset, we all are. i called Holly, and she said Kim was driving her to the Sheppard's pratt hospital main office area, Psych place, and Holly texted me when they arrived. She sent, Kim went off on her, emotionally abusing her saying very hurtful things, about how it's last time she's gonna help Holly, and that she's done with her, her brother, grandad, and moving to new england. Holly's in a fragile state of mind already, from all she's went through, and doesn't need Kim having a millenial tantrum on a day or time like this. her daughter said very hurtful, awful things to Holly. She called Holly crazy. Holly was very upset, and not needing this emotional abuse from Kim. she kept threatening Holly, that she was gonna leave and it upset Holly alot. she wants Kim there with her, and Kim letting her down like this, really isn't needed, especially when Holly is going through so much.
i called Holly's best friend, sis Linda, and told her what is going on, and how Kim called Holly hurtful things. Holly isn't crazy, that's an awful word Kim used. she doesn't need to be in a psych ward, hospital, she needs to be in an ED hospital i swear, on all that is important to me in my life, and her friend Linda too knows, that Holly needs better care, a clean home to live, she needs love, support. Linda and i had a good talk, about things, and are giving Holly lots of love, support today through this. it's been a very emotional time. we're beyond disappointed in her daughter Kim, for being this way to Holly, especially in her time of need. it's her mother, and for her to talk like she did to Holly, it's beyond upsetting. we all are very upset with Kim's treatment of Holly. i called Holly at the psych place, and told her, to keep strong, focused, her daughter kept threatening her that she was gonna leave, every 5 mins, and it upsets Holly,and Linda and i both worried they would try to give Holly a medicine to calm herself down. our opinion of Kim isn't really good, she's not a really well person herself, and for her to treat her mom like this, in a time when she needs her, this was Kim's idea, and for her to be like this, to Holly, it's very sad, disheartening, and heart breaking. i like to write positive, and keep the positive energy going. Holly's daughter Kim, has hurt all of us very much today, and in recent days. it's hard.
i've been texting with Holly's bro, through the day. if this treatment of Holly continues, and if no one will take her in, my family and i will help her here to Connecticut. all is possible right now. i'm writing this, as the day is going on, as it's a wild day. Holly reassured me, that she has control/power to sign herself out of the place. i was telling Holly, to keep as calm as she can, as her upsetness, and anxiety, was due to Kim upsetting her with horrible words she said to Holly. i was helping calm Holly down. Linda called Holly too, and then called me back. we're concerned that her daughter set her up for all of this, so that she wouldn't have to deal with Holly. Kim just isn't a caring person,and is all about herself. i know Holly gives Kim, the benefit of the doubt, about a lot of things, but eventhese actions today, were enough to break Holly's heart. that upsets all of our hearts, who love, and care about Holly. Holly should, and i believe, will sign over her medical care, fully to her friend Linda, just incase of health related issues. i've been keeping my family, and friends updated. we want Holly to be ok, and this whole situation, Kim's idea, really has gotten out of control for Holly. we're in stunned disbelief, abotu the way she's getting treated by her daughter, can't be like that, to anyone,especially family, loved ones. i feel bad for her patients, as she seems very uncaring, and this is just the tip of the ice berg, over the past 5 years. stuff i don't write about, that Kim has done to Holly, that's hurt her heart. really disappointed, that Holly has to go through with this, like this, without the support of her own daughter. Holly's always been there for Kim, over the years. Kim should be ashamed of herself.
1:40pm update. Holly got seen by a nurse at the psych place, and they then sent her to the ER, to get checked by nurses/drs there to get medical clearance, to be treated for her eating disorder. It's been very emotional. me calling Holly, Linda calling me, me calling Margie, Linda calling Robert, and Margie, and also keeping friends in tune, texting updates, forwarding messages. it's a full mode, all in, lets do this for Holly!!! :) SHE'S WORTH IT!!! woot yeah!!! :) it's a relief she was being sent to the ER, to get treated, and that she also is sounding upbeat about things.We're keeping positive, positive energy.
Holly texted me from the ER. She said, that Kim told her, she was gonna go to her own appt, and then bring Holly her clothes, and then leaving for good, and that Margie could pick her up. Kim is being really awful today to Holly. i called Linda, and talked with her some more, saying healing prayer for Holly. i called Holly, she had a migraine coming on. they did bloodwork, tests. we are keeping rallying around her with love, care, support :)
3:35pm, Holly and a nurse called me, and the nurse talked with me.Holly is in a crisis intervention unit, the nurse gave me phone number to call Holly. i heard Holly in the background, she said she tried to call Kim and she didn't answer. i contacted her brother, Margie, Chet, and Linda to share with them, and the number.
You are are helping all of us, more than you could ever know, especially during these times :) thank you :) my journal, always been such wonderful place to share my thoughts, feelings, whether it's emotional days, spirit soaring days, days that are up or down. having my journal, and being able to write, share, is what helps keep me strong too :) strong for my family, Holly, friends, for anyone who needs support :) It's been a challenging, trying, and emotional time for us all, and i'm definitely doing best i can. life flows in different waves, and sometimes those waves are rough, and sometimes smooth. facing those waves together, is comforting, and uplifting that leads us to smoother sailing eventually :) Thank you all, for being so understanding, caring, and supportive, of Holly and i, our family's, and also our friends :) it's very helpful, and is giving us strength, hope, motivation, determination, and keeping us moving forward each day, no matter how big the waves, and emotional times, we're all in this together :) writing, helps me a lot, and right now these are the things going on in my heart, spirit, and soul. Holly wants me to write, wants me to share, her health updates, all of our's, and every day forward :) i'm always use too helping, and being supportive, it can be hard for me to have times, when i need support, and comforting. i'm not use too asking for support. i appreciate it so much, as you all have been giving all of us, a wonderful outpouring of love, care, and support :) this morning, i had good morning America show on, and they played, "dancing in the moonlight" :) that song ,is one that Holly and i love very much, it's one of our favorites :) i texted Holly to tell her about the song being played, and she texted me back, with smiles :)
i called Holly this morning for a little while :) Holly wants me to personally take this time, to thank you all so much :) She has been treasuring, every well wishes, prayer, support, you all have been giving her and i, and our family's during these times :) it's very comforting, and uplifting :) You all showing such wonderful love, care, and support, means the world to us, knowing you're there for us all :) You know we will always be there for you all too :) Holly and i had a very nice, heart-felt talk, last night on the phone :) during the early evening, Holly and i were on the phone, she was at Margie's and Chet's home :) they made tea, and i made a chamomile tea, and we all shared in some moments, talking :) i then called Holly back, around 9pm, and we talked until 10:30pm :) we love our times together :) we treasure it :) it was very nice, comforting, and heart-felt :) i told Holly, we are with her every step, every hour, of every day, on this healing journey :) if any of you all, our dear friends are ever going through a rough time like this, you can, and could always expect us all to be there for you too :) She sounded upbeat, in good spirits, and determined :) it gives us all hope, and strength :)
It's been an emotional time, not only with what Holly is going through, but the sad news about the passing, of our dear angel friend Carol (mycat). that hit us all, very hard, to learn of the news. it was very sad, stunning to hear, about Carol's passing. Carol was one of my best friends, from here on DS over the years. She was a dear friend to so many people, members here on ds, over the years. She had such a great sense of humor, loved cats, and sharing recipes :) She was just, such a great person :) When she went through a rough time with her husband Paul's health, and his passing, she had lots going on, and wasn't able to communicate much, but she reached out to us all, in early 2018, and Carol and i began to send eachother emails, 2 or 3 times a day, each day. her friendship means so much to us. Carol is who shared with us, the recipe for the Easter nests baskets, with the mini eggs, and many other recipes too, that we made, during baking friday's. In the December 3rd, morning email i wrote her, i told her how we are so thankful, for her special friendship, and that we appreciate her. She read and replied to that email, on December 3rd evening. She passed away on December 10th. i'm so glad, and thankful i wrote those loving words to her, and that she got to read them. that means so much to my heart, her knowing how special she is to us, and always will be, she's forever in our hearts :) i lit a virual candle online, in loving memory of Carol, and sharing with family, Holly, and friends, memories from our friendship :) we are so thankful, and blessed to have met her, and to have shared a wonderful friendship with her over the years :) we will always treasure our cards, and gifts she sent us too. i have them displayed here in my computer room :) she was a cool cat, a dear special friend, and always, forever has a special place in our hearts :) to Carol, cheers to your amazing life you lived :)
