About Me

My photo
This blog is about coping with the strains of chronic illness whilst bringing up two beautiful children; it's also about the stresses of bringing up two children on your own while suffering with a chronic ongoing health problem which is at times very severe.... you can look at it either way. It's about being a single mum; it's about raising awareness of Interstitial Cystitis; it's about helping me cope. Writing this blog is beginning to bring me back to who I really am, who I really always was, before the single motherhood took over full time, before the illness set in.... a writer. I've always written, from essays to stories to journalism. This is the first thing I've written in years. It's helping me regain my confidence. PLEASE DO LEAVE ME COMMENTS AFTER MY POSTS! I'd genuinely love to hear your views on my (sometimes controversial) opinions. Thank you for taking the time to read. It would be great if you could comment so I know that you've been here and what you think.

loss

I haven't been on here for a while, in case you've missed me.

I've been in disabling pain, hardly able to carry on 'normal life'. The IC is so bad, it's frightening. Every day is dominated by my bladder. My 'soulmate' has been helping me with practical things when around, which has been more often lately, but lying to me about various things and god knows what else that I don't know about, so I have been in turmoil inside myself, desperate not to lose him, needing his help, unable to manage alone, yet conscious that something is very wrong. I will always love him but I cannot live surrounded by lies. And all the time my bladder is SCREAMING. I am at breaking point.

I am just checking in; will write when the words will come.
