Thinking of you, V

venuscat

Thank you love.

As I told Dee a little while ago, I am not great, but I am better because I am letting the love in....it really, really helps. ♥

Thank you Sass love. ♥

I am happy to say that I am doing a lot better mentally.
I am talking to all of you, and I am connecting with a few close friends by phone and in person. Telling the truth, letting people in.

I keep hearing my old sponsor in my head saying over and over: "If nothing changes, nothing changes".

I have been trying to leave a destructive relationship for over a year. Leaving, letting him back in, over and over. Because I love him very much. But I wasn't loving myself very much by living this way. lauren suggested that I should be nice to myself....what a concept. I'm trying. And by being better to myself, I am definitely beginning to feel more worthy again.

I am so glad I started talking...my secrets were killing me.

Love V xx

Thank you ♥

I think I said it honestly when I added my signature line last year.
I am broken. But unlike many, I am not strong in the broken places.
I feel like a shattered vase that no one wants to glue back together.

I think you have no end of people here willing to help V, if you let us in on what's wrong

I can't really talk about all of it on the threads.

Unfortunately, I have a bone tumor in my index finger (for the 3rd time) that is malignant.
Treatment options are horrendous ~ amputation is necessary.

I beat this once before holistically. I would like to believe I can do it again.
But I just feel so weak right now...so much has happened. Yes, I know it's life.

I need to get strong now.
I still have my faith.

I wasn't trying to pry - just wanted you to know there's a veritable army of folks here who want to help you as you've helped us

I know it's not the same, and it wasn't a tumour but I lost a toe...

you have all my prayers and best wishes V - and support, when you're looking for it

venuscat

I know you weren't trying to pry ...and as if you could. There is nothing I wouldn't tell you Dee.

OK ~ I am officially looking for support. God knows I am not coping on my own.

Hi Venus,
Here's ((((hugs)))) and support from the UK.

Ann

Venus, I read this and waited because YOU are the one who holds the glue and you are already doing a good job of mending, just by sharing and willingness and most of all having faith that this will one day be better...and it will...I promise.

One day at a time, sweetie, and you don't ever have to walk alone.

Love you lots.

V, this guy sends healing hugs from Arizona (I sawed off my thumb. Involuntary amputation It reattached OK but it's numb and useless)
