I initially dropped into depression and floundered as well as the next LBS. Couldn't even listen to music! Forced myself to GAL of my own, even when that was the last thing I wanted to do. Faked it (PMA) 'til I made it. Last but not least, gave her space. It wasn't easy, and I was often in pain.
After reading your recent posts, it is hard to believe that you were in this place that most of us, LBSs, are at the beginning of our journeys.
You’ve come a long way, FY. You are an amazing person. Like I already mentioned in one of my previous posts, your W is going to wake up one day and realize what she could have lost (I hope used the right grammar here, LOL.)

I have so much hope for you. I admire your dedication to your W and your M, even if the things don’t go the way you wish they would go.

I need to remember this every time I feel down.
FY, you are truly an inspiration. Thanks for stopping by my thread. Take care.
