Life and trauma

[Former-Member]

@avant-garde i have tried to do fostering but unfortunately for some reason my body is against me doing so. Everytime I've tried I've ended up with a massive tooth infection. Financially I just can't afford another dog right now and after what's happened previously I really don't know if i can go through any more heart break at the moment. I can only have one specific breed of dog which makes things hard but it's what I'm comfortable with and i struggle with change.

@avant-garde  What a beautiful cat!  I can't imagine how eager you must be to have her back with you.  Hopefully you get the housing soon... and there's not many willie wag tails around 😁

@MJG017 you around for a chat? 

[MJG017]

@Former-Member  Yep.  I was just finishing up some prints.  What's up?

[MJG017]

@Former-MemberThat does sound frustrating!  Maybe they just need you to be a bit more specific.  I've had similar things when I've felt not quite right and really struggled to be able to explain it.  I try to think about it and try to work out how I can best describe what i'm feeling.  Sometimes it works, sometimes i'm stuck with "just not right".  Can you describe it any further... even just here?

@Former-Member  What did they say?

[MJG017]

@Former-MemberThat definitely sounds very rude and upsetting.  I'm sorry.

Sometimes people can say things in way that sounds harsher than they intended.  Or i know when I'm upset, I can take things far worse than they were intended.  The important thing though is how you're feeling and no matter what was said or how it was intended you don't deserve to feel this way.  You know that it's not your fault so let's just focus on helping you right now.  Have you talked to anyone else there about how you're feeling?
