I'm letting off steam today and trying to work out how I feel. Some days I seem to struggle to make sense of where I am emotionally and when things feel heavy, I feel as though I am in denial.
On my struggle days I try to reign myself in. Then I come back to reality. I am tired of having to fight my way through the day with little resolve at the end of it. When anyone faces an assault it changes them. Our lives will never be the same again, it'll be different and tomorrow is another day.
I'm really sorry you're going through such a tough time. I wish I could be of more assistance to you.
Hopefully Daniel will do well and your concerns will be for naught. I think I would be (I know I would worry!) if I were in your shoes and it was Sarah. There is only so much we can do for them, they have to pick up the ball hopefully remembering the assistance we gave them and we have to be there for them if the balls fall.
I hope all ends up well for you guys.
Thanks Lisa. This really helps. You're absolutely right, but very difficult to distance yourself from those moments when you're dealing with trauma.
I believe Daniel will do fine. I hope that fine includes not worrying so much too. Thank you.
Like you, I wish it would all end and some normality could return. At the moment that seems a long way off.
Ditto. Agreed.
You will get there and it will all work out. Believe it and you will get through this rough patch.
Thanks Randy. I believe that too.
I Just need to get through the rough patch so I can begin to believe that everything will be fine. We have a long way to go.
