Englandgz, a man in uniform aaaaand an accent might turn my head
Sorry you're feeling sad & alone. Can you see the counsellor again that you saw a while back? I know that won't take away the loneliness, but it might be cathartic to spill irl.
Think I mentioned in another post that my psych had to refer me on as she continues to feel I suffered a neurological issue from the accident.
At our first appt last October she had said she'd "feel negligent" treating me until I'd had the all clear from a neurologist. My skull CT was normal so we proceeded.
I've had a bit of a wait to get in, then my first appt booked I had to cancel as sweetchildofmine was unwell & home for a few days.
So another ten or so days to see the neuropsych
feeling a bit abandoned.
Good news though, I was to call today to find out my appt time for my regular physician,- but the receptionist called me first asking if I could come in thurs as the psychiatrist will be cmng in for the first time to practice from her rooms. ( it's the one I travel to, but she's worth it)!
Have been trying to secure a teleconference with this psych for mths, my dr referred me as she knew it'd be much more convenient for me (not to mention extremely rare). I knew she was trying to get hold of him also, but not that it was in regard to wrkng from her office.
So that works well, I was due to see her Friday, but will see the psych first then my physician.
Then I travel back next tues, even further,- far side of the city, but so blessed my friends husband is taking me over in his car. He's just had cancer of the bowel removed but so fortunate the surgeons got it all & he is having two yrs off wrk & three mthly check ups. Lucky guy. He kinda gets how mixed up I am as he's had such a scare plus pain etc.
It's finally for the snazzy new sitting/standing MRI that I've been waiting mths to have approved by our type of transport accident commission, road insurance for anyone in a vehicle accident.
Closeau, what's this mystery huh? Been up to smthng you shouldn't have hmmm??
Dixi you are the ray of sunshine on this thread. You do so well & I think I understand how you're feeling about life. I'm a bit like "is this it"?
Each morning I wake and think, Another Day? Though I have my baby to always adore & be accountable for so that keeps me going each day.
She's just gone on a two wk trip with my folks 4wding up through some beautiful areas into the centre of australia. I travelled a lot as a youngster, so I'm grateful she has the opportunity to do such things as well.
I can do a direct flight from here to warmer beachy places, but 4wding & camping has never been my thing lol.
I miss her heaps & soon they'll have no mobile phone reception so I'll not even hear her sweet "love you's" for a few days. Sounds terrible but with all my appts it makes life less stressful worrying if I'll be home on time or who's collecting her from school this time etc.
Btw, tmorro see my local neurologist for a follow up appt (after almost six mths from my initial one), re: my hand numbness which has developed into a massive problem over that time, & to see what he has to say about my seizure a few mths ago.
I was actually even admitted as a private patient under his care, but never even sighted him. Shitty care in this "second largest city in the state of victoria", even paying huge $$ for private health insurance!!
SKR, look forward to hearing what good is coming into your life. You certainly deserve it. Where there's life there's hope,
Rtp xx
A little excitement here, as I encountered my first snake of the season! I was about to refill the water for the birds out back. The vessel sits atop an old bourbon barrel. As I reached to empty the remnants, I saw something underneath next to where I just placed my hand. Upon closer inspection, it was a coiled snake that wasn't moving. Slow bowel be damned, as I could have shite myself! I caught him with barbecue tongs, then snipped his head off with a knife. I "googled" a photo of what it said was a baby Rat snake. Yes, I know they're not poisonous. However, we have extremely poisonous snakes on our property (pond/frogs attract) from Copperheads to Cottonmouth Moccasins. I don't play. I kill whatever I encounter. The snake stories I could tell...two of which occurred INSIDE my house...YIKES!?!
