Hi, been a while since I've been on here.

I've taken care of my dad sister and niece for years which is what my mum asked of me before she died.

I've also looked after a friend from work who split up with his girlfriend. I opened my house to him and he lived with me and my partner.

My kids came back into my life recently after many years. My partner is very jealous of the time I spend with my children.

I guess what I'm trying to say is not 1 person that I've picked up and helped has called me today to ask how I am and if I need a chat.

Hi Sando welcome to the forum. People can often be very selfish and take, take, take and you sound as if you are giver and that can drain the life out of you when you are surrounded by takers. .

We are here and thinking of you though and Im sending some heartfelt hugs your way. xxx

Hi Sando!

That happened to me in June this year. Not one of Jay's remaining family phoned or texted or messaged asking how I was on the first anniversary of his passing. I appreciate that everyone is busy with their lives etc but a wee five minute phone call or text message would have been nice some will have genuinely forgot and I know who they would have been but for some it's `me, me, me`. One of Jay's workmates actually texted me which I did not expect and asked how I was on his anniversary and he is not even family so that was nice of him. He was one of Jay's coffin bearers at his funeral. Takes all kinds I suppose. Take Care
