The Bit Where I Fill You In…

Hi. My name is Claire and in a pre­vi­ous life I used to blog here. More recently how­ever, my world has recently imploded.

Thank you to all those that sent well wishes to K, in response to my last blog post. Alas, K is still not well. After unce­re­mo­ni­ously decid­ing to have a nervous break­down in Feb­ru­ary, she opted to take 3 months off from work with a tent­at­ive dia­gnosis of PTSD and to have some minor sur­gery. Because, you know, there was just not enough Crazy in this house.

She has since embarked on a much needed career break, whilst she recu­per­ates and seeks numer­ous forms of treat­ment. Never in my life have I sup­por­ted a decision as much as I sup­port this one. Yes, the eco­nomy is on its knees and yes, life will have its boot up our arse. But she needs this, her health and wel­fare is worth more to us than any fin­an­cial or mater­ial carry-on.

I have every inten­tion of return­ing to my beloved blog, but right now we’re tak­ing each day as it comes and Open Uni­ver­sity exams and course­work aside, I’ve been on-call 24 hours a day to rub her back and (try­ing in vain to) make it all better.

I can’t tell you how brave K is being right now.

    Don’t worry about your blog — we will still be here :heart:

    Hope k puts all her wor­ries and stress to one side, enjoys the mini heat wave we seem to be hav­ing and learns to relax 100% You will both get through this, think of it as just a ‘bit of a blip’ and keep smil­ing :P

    What Imo said, you won’t lose your read­ers that eas­ily :)

    Best wishes to K and your­self. From what you’ve said, tak­ing time out def­in­itely sounds like a good idea. As much as is pos­sible, enjoy the time together and good weather also :)

    Thank you, each and every one of you. Your com­ments and sup­port mean so much — espe­cially on days like today.

    I’ll do my best to keep you updated — I think I could do with the dis­trac­tion of my blog right now… :)
