Swollen and sore

Aww Fifi!

Sending you a `BIG Glesga Hug`Sorry to hear about your illness flaring up again hope they can finally find answers and a solution for you. Was a little bit down over the weekend it was one of my `hideaway` times didn't want to go anywhere because it was a wee milestone and 9 months in from losing Jay. I'm just counting the months now until `the anniversary` I'm a bit better now though just need to soldier on and take each day as it comes. Is all we can do really. Take Care.

Hello Glasgow !!

Thank you for your concern.Really means a lot this forum, where I almost feel I know some of you now. Big news. Went to a therapist yesterday who says all this is due to anger. Leaving me alone, I get upset at the stupidest things. She worked on me for an hour and a half, talking to me kindly and with compassion that my face would heal. She explained about the " onion " idea.

Peeling off a layer at a time. What does it reveal ? A nice clean part or still a little bit bruised ?

Just like us. What will we find at the end. The treasure which is yourself. Finding Fiona she says.

Hope you are ok. Good days and bad I know. I am nearly at the second year anniversary, the 30th May. Where has the time gone ? Feels strange still without Barry, but I am slowly understanding the process of being in the now and not to worry about the future.

Hold on and think of the little onion !

Hugs to you x

Hi Fifinet

So glad you managed to see what sounds like a lovely understanding therapist.  What wonderful sentiments too, peeling off a layer at a time and finding the treasure that is yourself.

I am at 19 months since I lost my soulmate, truly my other half.  Finding the second year very hard.  I know l am lucky having my family around me but I get such sad sad days.

Sending hugs to you and everyone on this path.
