Re: Temporary Move OT

[Guest guest]

Hello Joan

I too get very anxious when plans are made even if it's only a day out so

understand how you feel.

My only concern for you is that two months in Yorkshire in the Summer can be

very different from two months there in the Winter. I was there as a child and

it can get very cold.

If you want a chat...you have my telephone number.

Try not to get too stressed.

Best wishes.

Temporary Move OT

Hello Stilligans

I hope you do not mind me off loading some of my concerns although I do feel

guilty as a lot of you are suffering so much at the moment. I think I have

mentioned in the past that we have been thinking of moving to be nearer my

son and maybe buy a cheaper house so that we can release some money to get

help in the house etc. Well we are going to stay with Toby (my son) from

next Tuesday for approx. 2 months to see if we feel we would fit in and

would like to live there. My problem is that I have lost all my confidence.

My husband is talking about things we can join in to integrate into the

community and I am just so scared even though he has said that if I am

unhappy we can come home again straight away and I do really want to see

what it would be like to live in Yorkshire. I do feel that although my

family are very supportive especially my husband that I can suffer from

stills and depression at home but when a holiday or this move comes about

all arrangements are made as if I am fully fit and I seem to get caught up

in it and therefore dread it if I feel after doing very little I have had

enough. I know I only have to say - hang on a minute you are going too fast

but they still do not actually understand how it makes me feel which is why

I am posting this to my family as I am sure you will know exactly what I

mean. I am finding it very difficult to cope with as it is not that I don't

want to go but the stress is making me feel quite ill.

I would appreciate it if anyone has any ideas on this or whether you think I

am getting in a state for nothing.

I hope that you are all getting through your pain and problems as I know you

have many.

Best wishes
