lsn't it lovely to have family and friends around not forgetting the neighbours .Have you thought of having a little holiday yourself prehaps visit one of your brothers .Got a sense of humour well thats good.Keep your chins up :ROFLMAO: ❤️
Keep my “chins up” 😳now that is funny 🤣🤣🤣 thanks laughter is the best medicine.😊
 
Iv'e searched everywhere but I can't find anywhere regarding moving house on the My Gov site, or the Centerlink site. 🧐
It should be there I checked it out a couple of months ago and apparantely you can get a loan of $2000.00 but you have to pay it back. I just typed in moving house services Australia and it comes up.

The only one that comes up for me is if you need housing and we already have a house, it's just the moving heavy items we need help with.
Plus I already have a loan through Centerlink and can't afford to pay back two with having to pay two rents.
But thank you for your help :)

Aha no worries think I’ll go have a nap 💤 brains getting tired today I can’t concentrate take care 😊
 
You know for some this is going to be hard to do especially if they are dependent on others and feel they are a bother.
l found when l went outside in the fresh air it helped or perhaps been taken for a drive .Playing cards and doing quiz's could also help. Try not to think ''why bother my life is nearly gone anyway''and think there are lots of people who wish they had more time. Sorry that doesn't really help does it?
Listen to some happy music and try and dance around.lf you are on a package you can get someone in to play games and take you out.
Just getting over Covid myself but feeling a bit better the cough still with me. Who cares?????
I noticed more people wearing masks again when I was out this morning. Covid must be activating again.
 
Thanks my little sisters in Bali for a week and my big sisters on a vintage car rally around victoria for two weeks and I’ve got four brothers who live so far away so I’m a bit lost at the moment. Lucky I’ve got good neighbours to keep an eye on me and my cat I’d be lost without him and being on here helps also. But she’ll be right at least I’m still standing and have my funny side that’s the main thing right.😊
Yes it does help being on here doesn't it?
I’m down in the dumps cos my doc confirmed I’ve got shingles again after having it six months ago, also fell over twisted my leg of course it’s the new hip isn’t it and tore a ligament behind my new hip. 😢 then found a card on my doorstep saying “Jesus loves you” really 😳

Yes being on here does help doesn't it. I've found that out since I lost my daughter. I do sincerely hope you are feeling better very soon. I will keep you in my thoughts. Take care and get better soon. All the best. Have you in my thoughts.
Sincerely
Beautiful Mousey ❤️ 🥰

Not to put the post down in the dumps but i'm not happy because my Oncologist has diagnosed me with stage 4 bowel cancer, but I don't get how.
Nearly 2 months ago I had a complete Colonoscopy, through the Stoma and the backside, which came back cancer free after having a stage 2 bowel cancer tumor removed on the 30th of April.
So how does it go from being cancer free two months ago to stage 4 now.
And to top it off we're still in the middle of moving, it's very slow going because I can't do a thing to help and my partner has to do the lot, he's reached out to various places for muscle help but no one will help us. Last weekend until Tuesday I was in hospital again and I asked the social workers for help, they refused and said to get friends and family to help, well the only friend we have, except on social media, is a 74 year old man with cancer himself and all of my family have passed away or live in Perth and we're in Adelaide.
It's really depressing with us both being on disibility pensions so pennies are scarce and we're having to pay two rents at the moment..
I might add that all of my blood tests have come back normal with no cancer markers at all.
Sorry to unburden myself in here but once I started I couldn't stop 😂
Don't be sorry. That's what we are here for. To give backup to anyone needing it. You take care of yourself. Thinking about you also. All the best

You can complain or you can say am alive and that is a plus.


If you knew what I have been through you would give up altogether, what would that achieve? You become more depressed and so on or take a positive attitude. What you can't change or control what struggle with.

Complaining is not going to make it better,
You create your reality.

Be grateful for what you have and more better things will come to you, don't talkabout trouble or illness.

You draw more of the same , bless each day and what you have
When you show a positive attitude more positive stuff will come into your life
