Feeling lost
Notifications OFF
so over the weekend, my OH has now informed me that he did find it sexual talking online the police Sting about how they abused their child Although he says he's not sexually attracted to children and now on top of that my best friend who is the only person I seem to be able to really open up to and talk about this whole situation has just found out she has cancer and has only been given two to three months to live. I feel so lost and upset and now I have to go to work and do a 12 hour shift and all I really want to do is just sit at home and cry for my friend !!!

Stan cat - I'm not sure how everyone missed seeing your post and I'm sorry if it felt like you were being ignored at such a vulnerable time. My best friend from my teens died just before our son was arrested and I still wish she was around to talk to. You must feel so bereft and add to that how you feel about your OH's admission life must be tough for you right now.
Just wanted to let you know that you have been seen and heard and I send you a big warm hug x

Stan Cat - can I reach out to you as well.
This journey is awful enough then along comes the other things in life we have to deal with, it's all so overwhelming and just not fair at times is it?
loosing a loved one to cancer is very very painful, we lost our lovely mum through it several years ago. I have nothing practical to offer but send you a hug of support and love xxxxx
