PEOPLE STRUGGLING TO UNDERSTAND YOUR FEELINGS? LOOK AT THIS

Post by Julie2039 »

This is a link I was sent which can be used to send to friends/family to help them understand how we feel - absolutely beautiful - need a box of tissues.

OH MY GOD - I TOO NEEDED TISSUES - THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL.........

I am going to send that to my family, not because they don't know what I'm going through but just because it was soooo lovely.

Thanks Julie

Julie,

That was incredible. I'm not usually that soft but I really did weep with that one. Thanks for sending to us all.

Very tempting isn't it. I have refrained so far but then think what have we got to lose. Good luck if you do x

I sent it to my family and friends last night and this morning I got loads of lovely emails back. Sometimes it's hard for them too, they don't always know what to say to us and it gave them the opportunity to express their feelings and frustrations too.
I found that my sisters (I have 5) felt a little guilty for been so lucky, which of course they should not. The thing is I am just like them except I married a man that had a vasectomy. My down fall is I keep getting pregnant and then lose them. Anyway, I would urge people to send this piece on. As it says they should walk a few footsteps in our shoes.

Good luck.

Glad it helped - we have a similar problem with my DH being 1 of 5 boys, all of whom have their own families.
