hi. anyone who can help, please do

thanks everyone for the help and support.
i dont know about you but i felt really sly and selfish last night watching comic relief, especially when david tennant was in that hospital. i felt especially bad for complaining about my diabetes when he pointed out that poor little kid with diabetes caused by malaria. it made me think how lucky we are to be able to get proper treatment for it when there are some people who cant and die because of it :'(

What a lovely thoughtful girl you are Emma Jane. We sometime complain about our NHS but we are very very lucky really 🙂

yeah, especially compared to those poor little kids. that diabetic kid probably wont live long enough for comic relief to help but i sent the ?10 text anyway. i got really annoyed at my re teacher the other day for saying she told the headteacher not to give money to red nose day because it gives money to abortion clinics. we all had a rant to eachother at breaktime and most of us went and bought red noses after school that day

I did the ?10 text as well............makes it so much easier doing it by text.

People always worse of than us isnt there.

You will find some Catholic schools won't hold Red Nose Events for that reason - but others will look at all the other activities that are being supported and will allow events. St Julie's had red nose day fundraisers. Did your RE teacher have any other charities in mind ?

You seem more settled than when you first posted - how's your Mum doing with it all?

 

[Emma Jane]

im not sure... we were all just trying to get her to admit that not all abortions are wrong, we didnt think to ask if she was going to give to other charities instead.
mum seems ok with it all but im not really sure she is. she hasnt really said anything about how she feels, just keeps asking about me. im more worried about her than the needles. they mostly dont hurt and even if they do then it doesnt last long. it seems like shes trying to keep it all from me as much as possible. shes taken to doing my injections when im at home but i dont mind that because it hurts more when i do it myself. its her 50th soon and i keep trying to get her to go back to ireland and stay with her sisters for it but i dont think she will. i can tell she wants to and i really think she needs the time away to just think about herself and relax a little but eventhough i know she really wants to she wont because shes too worried about me. i wish she would just accept that ill be fine without her for a week or so and she can go and enjoy herself.

Hi Emma Jane - I looked at the link posted earlier in the thread to support groups - they run one for parents at Alder Hey. Maybe if she goes there she'll be able to talk to people who understand her position.

Have you another relative who you could stay with if she went to Ireland - I know you mentioned and aunt and uncle. If your Mum knew you were staying with someone she could trust she might feel more like going.
