Everyone’s sick. They started feeling really bad last week – the night Grabby came to deliver an air conditioner, actually. That was a difficult night compiled by some already unsettling realities and they just never really recovered. The weather here has cooled off considerably, which is probably why they’ve come down with something.
Tonight I seem to have caught it, too. Don’t want to feel left out, I guess, but poor Taryn has been spending her days alone feeling awful while everyone else rests. I come home to a stuffie-filled couch and the movie Tangled set on repeat. I know this is more than just the physical body being ill. Somehow Grabby’s visit triggered a major regression for them. Add that to an already unsettled state, this was bound to happen.
I’m so sorry, Ben, and I wish we could help even the slightest bit. I hope everyone starts to feel better soon. Taryn is so brave.
We miss you all so much right now. Feeling really alone. I hope you guys feel less alone, since you have each other. <3
Thanks, guys. I’m sorry you’re feeling so alone. Try not to forgot all the people you have in your life….friends, family, your therapist, your blog friends, etc.
I am so sorry Ben, that really sucks. Regression is so hard. Hope you start feeling better.
Thanks, Ruth. It’s going to be tough for a while. Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts all the time.
Thanks for the update! I have been checking Being Elle a coupe times a day (no pressure, eh!), but no one has been posting. I have been worried a bit. I did not want to pressure anyone for an update,though.
It sucks being sick. And Grabby is triggering – hell – I read his name and feel rough, and I have never met him!
I was hoping things would get better after the funding came through and you got that new job. I am sure it is still headed that direction, which makes a set back even more frustrating, I am sure.
Just give everyone my love. And take care.
Hi Crumble,
Things here have been not going very well for a little over a week now. Maybe longer. Grabby certainly contributed, but a lot of this was instigated before. Things have been much better since they qualified for the SSDI, primarily financially – just the last couple of months have brought a lot of conflict that we’re having to deal with. Also, they’ve been sick for over a week and are just starting to feel a little better. I’m sure Rinoa will fill you in as soon as she can. She is one of many that aren’t feeling well these days.
Thanks for the support and concern.
All our love,
Ben
Hi Ben,
We have been sick for about nine days now and still don’t have a voice, but we are glad to say we are much better. We hope that you and your loved ones will heal soon. We will send you all Reiki healing energy healing too.
Good and healing thoughts to yous.
Kate
Hi Kate,
I’m sorry you’re not feeling well. Being sick for that long really wears you out – outside and in. When L’s family catches something they tend to lose their voice as well. I’m glad you’re starting to feel better. Thank you and we’re sending healing thoughts to you all too.
Take care,
Ben
