in reply to Hell's Kitchen Bitches! 🦮🔥 • • •Fankoos dear 💜 it's definitely hard. I was already struggling loads, and getting another one of those triggering texts... It just blew me up!
Thanks for all the love and healing thoughts, and snuggles for the pack! Can't wait till mum will bring Bas with her again, hopefully tomorrow... Need some positive snuggles... 😊 Thanks again! 🤗

in reply to Hell's Kitchen Bitches! 🦮🔥 • • •Thanks! yeah, I could do with one or two of those texts. But not every two days or so for 4 weeks... How can one be expected to heal and recover from the loss of their bestest friend, when someone asks you every other day "if things are going better without your friend now"? Who would want to rip open that wound for someone, again and again? And every time I tried to explain, both about me missing Arwen and about my health going way too slow for my liking, but that's the way it is when you have loads of trauma and several surgeries in a short time... And then they just don't seem to comprihend the answer that I give them, so they just ask again and again. It's so triggering and now I have had enough. I don't care that they're family, they're not being "supportive and interested and being kind", this feels more like they're bullying me over and over and I have had enough.
Sorry, it's still very raw with me. 😢

But yeah, it is hard enough to deal with all the setbacks and restrictions and the very, very slow way of recovering, without someone "showing interest" like that again and again.
Thanks so much for your support and kindness! 🤗 Hugs to you and the pack from me, and boops to all from little Bas, who is lying next to me now. 🐾
