I HAVE SEEN MANY POSTS SAYING HOW MANY OF US HAVE ZERO SUPPORT FROM OUR FAMILIES. THIS IS ME.

YOU MAY HAVE SEEN MY POSTS ABOUT MY "SISTER" AND THE B****R ALL SUPPORT SHE HAS GIVEN MY SINCE AUGUST WHEN MY DAD'S DEMENTIA GOT SERIOUS. IT REALLY GOT ON TOP OF ME YESTERDAY

SHE IS REALLY CRUEL FOR NOT EVEN HELPING ME WITH HAVING MY DAD'S CATS PUT TO SLEEP EVEN KNOWING THAT MY OWN CAT HAD BEEN BUT TO SLEEP EARLIER IN WEEK. THAT IS SOMETHING I WON'T FORGIVE HER FOR

I FELT SO ANGRY & FRUSTRATED YESTERDAY I JUST SAT & CRIED AT THE SLIGHTEST THING. I HAVE NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE. IT REALLY MADE ME THINK WHAT IS THE POINT IN ALL THIS. I'VE STRUGGLED & STRUGGLEDTO GET THROUGH THE BI & ALL THE C**P THAT GOES WITH IT PLUS ALL THIS & FOR WHAT?, TO GO THROUGH IT ALL AGAIN IN THE FUTURE?

I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING FOR FAMILY SUPPORT.

THANKS SO MUCH TO EVERYONE HERE FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT.

There's an old saying, "You can choose your friends but you can't choose your family".

I haven't had the problem of lack of support, more it was the extra hassle caused to my two daughters reactions to their Mum's BI. They needed a lot of help too, which was quite draining.

We're all here for each other Zeb, chin up!

A lot of your posts have often brightened my day up.

Take care, Dev

Ah but you miss one thing - I am not English.

Any idea how difficult it has been for the shops in Wales to find Ecuador shirts for the first pool game :-)

in reply to sospan

SORRY ABOUT THAT. THE CRICKET GOVERNING BODY IS THE ENGLAND & WALES CRICKET BOARD SO YOU'RE NOT IGNORED.

GOOD LUCK WITH ECUADOR, I FEEL YOU'LL NEED IT.

If they pick Ravi (headless chicken) Bopara one more time I'll scream. The guy has over 100 caps!!

in reply to BaronC

STOPPING THE WIDES WOULD HELP TOO.THAT'S WHY WE LOST THE OVAL GAME. AT LEAST IN TESTS DON'T HAVE THE LEG SIDE WIDE.SO WE MAY HAVE A (SLIM) CHANCE.

Waited twenty years to see England as a force again, 2005 was fantastic, but we appear to be sliding backwards again...
