@Till23 wow you have done so many amazing things for charities, well done 💙.
Photography is something I've always admired but I'm no photographer myself.
I used to play wordle but never put it on my new phone when I got it.

Hi @Former-Member . The staff here have been caring and understanding. I hope I get some relief soon, even to be able to get up and sit in a chair would be a huge achievement for me at the moment.
It was confronting to be asked those questions but I'm thankful it's over and done with now.
I have been used to being alone most of my life but when going through things like this, a little bit of support is needed. I'm thankful that I have connected here and stuck with it despite thinking about closing my account early on. But going through things was hard enough and then things took a bad turn, this support from people here means alot to me.
Thank you for your kind words 💙

Actually @Hopeandlove , the newer phones' cameras are pretty good nowadays. Can't really complain @Hopeandlove . What about just looking at pics of nature? Do you enjoy that?
You know what? It's such a privilege to be able to sit at your bedside and journey with you. I hear it is hard, but fingers crossed that things improve soon.

@tyme I enjoy looking at nature pictures but it's not the same as being out there.
Thank you for being here to support me and for chatting to me. You don't know how much it means to me. 💙

You know what @Hopeandlove ? As much as connecting with each other means to you, it is also meaningful for us - honestly. I feel this type of connection helps all of us, and I'm so glad you did not close your account earlier...

I agree @tyme . I feel like we are all helping each other @Hopeandlove.
I feel it’s a deep honour for people to open up and share the hardest moments of their lives with me (or others).
I’m really glad you did not close your account when things felt hard for you. This is resilience when you could have shut down, but you kept communicating, kept engaging with others and you say that has helped you.

@Till23 I don't feel I have much to offer others in the way of help at the moment.
It wasn't easy for me to open up but after speaking to @tyme and their encouragement I got that bit of confidence to share some of my story. I'm thankful that I did, I had no idea how quickly things were going to go downhill. Just knowing that you and @tyme @Former-Member @MJG017 are here to support me means more than words can explain. Thank you to you all 💙

It’s truly heartwarming to hear that you’ve found such caring support, both from the staf and the people here. Learning to lean on others isn’t always easy, I know I struggle with it too.
I’m really glad youre staying connected to the Forums. U deserve kindness and support, and I hope you find some relief soon.
Tyme is right, it’s a privilege to be by your side on this journey.
Wishing you a restful night and sweet dreams.
Snuggles! 🥰
