Its good to hear from someone with special needs S. It adds another level to the already difficult sitch. Although it feels like I am getting to know my S all over again. Sure I spent time with him, but I am spending a lot more time with him and doing more things on our own without W. Its really giving me a confidence boost as are the other tasks I have taken on around the house. In a twisted way I am enjoying being in control of all other aspects of my life except my M.
My GAL thing is just starting to take shape and is probably the bit I am finding harder because I am busy with everything else. But it is taking shape and xmas season is actually helping in that aspect. Parties to go to etc
Finances are getting sorted so another good bit of news and I got a £200 tax rebate thru on Friday :):)
Research into MLC has also been v good for me. It helps me detach because I am understanding more from her perspective. Although I am still far from detached at the moment I am finding MLC an interesting subject:)
But I know I am still up and down inside and use these boards to get a lot of it out of the system. If I get it out here then I can dust myself off and carry on! The advice has also been priceless.
Thanks again for the support and I promise I will have a detailed look at your sitch.
