GOT IN TOUCH WITH ONE OF THE VA COUNSELORS AND SHE WAS VERY SWEET. SHE IS PART OF THERE PROGRAM CALLED TAPP. SHE WILL TRY TO GET ME SOMEONE WHO I CAN RELATE TO AND HOPEFULLY SHE DOES. SHE GAVE ME HER CELL NUMBER AND SAID IF I NEED TO TALK DAY OR NIGHT, JUST CALL. I SO PRAY IT WORKS OUT.

HUGS EVERYONE,

AUDDONZ (AUDREY)

Good job Audrey, I do hope you find someone . I too have been considering it with my kids. We need to talk and we have not really done it...I need to know how ....B's hospice offers counselling so I think I will give them a call and see what they have to say!

Goodluck to the both of us.

Hi Audrey,. Well done! That first move is the hardest. I am sure it will help, having some counselling. But stick at it, it won't be an over night cure. I got enormous help from the ones I saw, whilst Steve was still with me. It did take a while to get use to talking very honestly to someone though.

Lots of love

Anne, I am realistic I know it won't be an over night cure, but it would be nice. I am very open to talking to someone who can hopefully help me.

Lots of love back,

Audrey

Hi Audrey, so pleased you are to get counselling it helped me enormously when Ben was in denial at the diagnosis and I found it so difficult. Counselling helped me to come to terms with my emotions and was the only place I could offload with no holding back. Big hugs
