[jenluckenbach]

Oh Julie, I am so sorry to hear. :( Prayers and well wishes are on the way. Please get better and let up (or someone) know what is happening.

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

Hi everyone,

I only saw this now, sorry for not replying sooner.

I have got a lot going on in my life at the moment - some good, most bad.

As some of you know I have been having some health issues recently - mainly depressions, but also thyroid and hormone problems, as well as my first mamogram.

I haven't really felt like posting much - it's difficult to remain positive and cheerful, and I don't want to bring anyone else down.

My mamogram results were inconclusive, so I will be having an ultrasound in the next couple of weeks. (I need to go back to South Africa to sort out residence permits etc for here - has to be done in my home country), so I will be having the mamogram done there as well.

I'll try to stay in touch, but internet access where I will be staying is limited, and also offers no privacy, so I may not be online much.

Also (and I have been REALLY hesitant to post about this), my daughters are back in South Africa with my ex-husband. (It is the best decision for them at this point, and was NOT taken lightly. PLEASE don't judge me on this issue at the moment - I could really not handle it). Of course this has added to my depression, as I am really homesick for South Africa and am missing the girls so much.

I MAY have a job lined up (I have a 2nd interview tomorrow), but I am not sure if they will hold the position open for me until December (After 10 months of looking this is the closest I have gotten to finding something).

Words cannot express how much you all mean to me - and how much all your messages of support, and your prayers mean too!

I am not sure how much access I will have between now and the beginning of December, but I will try to stay in touch.

Thanks again everyone,


(((HUGS)))

Julie

[Logan]

I"m just glad to know you are ok, Julie. You take care of yourself, and maybe designate one person, like Kim, who can keep in touch with you even if you don't want to post here. That way she could keep us posted so we'll at least know where you are.

Hope everything works out the way it needs to for you.

Logan

[Vio&Juni]

Julie, I hope you get positive results and that will make you feel better. We'll be thinking about you.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Julie, I'm glad you checked in and let us know how you're doing.

No need to worry about us judging you for anything. You are one of the most wonderful people here are and we know you would only do what is best for your daughters.

As for the depressions, if you're having thyroid and hormone problems, that is a very likely cause of the depressions - especially coupled with the mammogram troubles and your daughters being gone. What you have to do is concentrate on getting yourself healthy.

Check in when you can. {{{hugs}}}

[kimlovescats]

Julie, thanks for the e-mail ... and for posting here for all your PT friends who love you so much! Don't beat yourself up over your girls ... I did the exact same thing with mine! Yes, that's right ... my depression (caused mostly from the emotional abuse of their father) led me to just letting him "win" and take them. It was the hardest decision of my life ... but it allowed me to work on my own health and strengthen my defenses against his cruelty. Still to this day though, that man has a way of pulling my strings, and it will urk me til the day I die I suppose.

Hang in there, Julie .... and write me anytime!!!

((((HUGS))))
Kim

[jazzzytina]

I agree, Julie, you did what was right for you and your family. No one should judge you for that. I'm a "depression survivor" too so I know how that feels. All your friends here at Pet Talk love you and hope for the best for you.

Sending love and prayers and good wishes your way,
Tina

[K & L]

Julie
Sorry to hear you're going through all of this. Please stay in touch here and let us know how you're doing. Best of luck to you!

[catlover4ever]

Julie, I'm so glad you checked in. You have to remember that YOU and ONLY YOU know what is best in your life. No one hear will judge you. I will continue to pray that everything will be OK. Keep in touch with Kim so we can know how you are doing.

P.S. I'm sure you already know this but Ally and Connor make the best nurses.

Sending my love and extra prayers your way --- Meg

[Cataholic]

[Laura's Babies]

Julie, you have a lot of support here. Most of us have been through one thing or another and can appreciate privacy when we need it.

Come here anytime you feel that you need a shoulder or twenty...........and some comfort and understanding.

[popcornbird]

Oh Julie. {{{hugs}}}

Thanks for checking in with us. I pray that things will begin to get better for you with the passing of each day. You love your daughters and know what is best for them and for you at this time. We would never judge you for making the decision you felt was best right now.

Hang in there. Things will get better soon. You're in my prayers.

[carole]

Julie thanks for dropping by , i am sure everyone of us appreciates that you did so, with all that is going on in your life right now.

I found PT to be of great comfort to me in my time of need, so when and if you can please come by, we are all here for you, to offer any support possible, no-one has the right to judge you and as you can see no-one is.

You have a lot to be coping with right now, and if a kind word, a virtual hug helps a little, know that we all can offer you that.

HUGS sweetie, and we are hoping for clear results and for you to feel happier and healthy again.:)

[krazyaboutkatz]
