An Update Is Desperately Needed!!

the universe works in mysterious ways.....I didn't realise when I logged on yesterday that it was 3 years since lola was readjusted after my assault......

Well everyone knows that in 2009 I was assaulted, my 7 year old son spent 10 weeks in a mental health ward for suicide attempts (he has multiple disab

I went onto mushy kinda foods yesterday....luckily I guess I know what I can and can't eat at this stage so I have been keeping full, unfortunately not busy though. My mind is going insane having way too much time on my hands to think
