Hello Faithfull - we're all concerned about you and miss your chats. Drop us a line and let us know you're ok. 😘😘

I wondered this last week as well. If im not mistaken I believe Richard had mentioned he was one of the last to have spoke to her. He might know what happened to her and where she is?

Thanks peoples, let,s just hope she,s o.k. x x c xcxx

Sadly Faithfull has had a bad time of late. She's now in a very dark place and is back drinking again. This poor lady has had a terrible life, and now suffers with complicated mental health issues. From what I can gather, she gave evidence in court about a murder. The man got sent down for life, but is due out soon, and has sworn revenge. She is living in fear. She was moved to a place in south London, but it was discovered that the place was riddled with open asbestos. She had to leave. I do believe she in now back on the streets around the Southend on sea area. She won't answer my messages anymore as she feels she's failed me. I message her nearly every week, but she just sends a wave now and again. She has just added a post talking about how nice the soup kitchens are. It is so tragic, how society allows people like her to be persecuted and just left to fend for themselves.

If I hear any news or she gets in touch, I'll be sure to pass it on.

Oh no! Thats truly sad. I wish I could go drive around there and find her. Pick her up and get her somewhere safe mentally and physically. Such a sweet woman. She has not had an easy life and it pains me to see good people always get handed the shit end of the stick over and over. Each time it makes them lose the grio on it a little more. I do hope she can bounce back or seek help. She needs to feel shes not alone.

Oh no. This is so sad to read. It is awful that her life has been lived in fear, all because she did the right thing. Nobody should have to through that. I hope she stays in touch with the forum and can see these messages and I know that she is missed. I wish there was more we could do. X

That's so sad, I've read some if her posts and it seemed she was getting it rough. How brave if her to give evidence in a trial like that, many people wouldn't be ballsy enough. And many of us are far from perfect, there's no shame in drinking again, some people take 50 years to get sober, some people never do but no one is any less of a person, addiction is tough and if you've led such a hard life and zero support then no wonder this poor lady has turned to alcohol. I swear sometimes this world is just too cruel. I hope Faithful comes back and realises there's no judgement, just support.

Oh dear, this is so so sad. What this poor, vulnerable woman has been through is terrible.

I feel ashamed to be part of our society, when it neglects poor people like Faithful. Thank you Richard for the update. I hope and pray that she is spotted by the local authority, and given the help she so richly deserves.

I've often wondered where she'd gone too. I'm sad to read this, I hope she can get back on her feet. ☹ xxx

Just to let you guys know, I manage to speak with Faithful this morning. When I say speak, it was on Facebook messenger. She is feeling really upbeat and happy. The most I've heard her be in a long time. She is going into detox as they have found the money to pay for her from somewhere. She's also recently seen a MP from the local Green Party who are going to look into her case.

She is now helping out in a voluntary soap kitchen, this I understand is a "bring what you can" sort of place, and they cook food for the homeless of Southend on Sea. She's really happy working here as I think she's getting a lot of reward from helping others. She was telling me just how popular her Chilli is.

I passed on everyone's love and told her that everyone wishes her all the best and to hurry up and come back to HealthUnlocked. She feels by falling off the wagon she's failed everyone. I told her what

Phoenix had said about driving down to see her. She was terribly humbled.

She is really trying to turn everything around, and I really admire her for this.

I'll keep you all posted.

Many thanks for the update, Aww God bless her!!!!! I'm so pleased that she is getting help now, and hope she can kick the booze with the detox. Working in the soup kitchen is great for her self esteem. I pray that her recovery continues.
