Hi guys.
As some of you know I've been pushed out by Anne. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in meeting up somewhere for a social afternoon or evening in the new year. I still have the phone number and will turn it back on if anyone thinks its worth it..
Truthful answers please as I'm seriously thinking of starting my own group!

Been asked to post this anonymously 🦋Frances🦋
can you post this as an anon post please.
I was diagnosed with fibro after having my son in 2012. previously had cancer twice and severe back injury that required surgery.
for a few years I managed with help from a good gp and medication. then my GP retired and it has went down hill. they stopped all my pain meds only give me anti depressants.
I started having seizures that were linked to the pain, still they wouldn't help. I live in a small village so only 1 gp practice.
over the last 2_3 year I barely leave my house, I have an 8 yr old son and it is just the 2 of us. he is an amazing boy and so sweet. if it wasnt for him I would have ended it long ago.
recently I have been thinking that he is missing out on so much with me as a mum cos I can't do anything. my brother and sister in law have twin boys the same age and I know they would look after him and give him a great life.
I cant see how i can make it through xmas in this pain. i struggle to climb the stairs . I used to love cooking and baking but can no longer stand to do it. my housework has fallen behind but I make sure my son has clean clothes for school every day.
I just want to be able to give him a good xmas day, but will spend the day surrounded by pillows on the sofa crying in pain. I have asked my gp for a small supply of painkillers to get me over the holidays but the denied me.
what can I do.? xx
