Hi Emma - I’m so moved at reading of all the shit you’ve been carrying for so long.
I’m wary of offering advice to anyone as it is so easy to piss people off and in any event who the hell am I to advise given the mess I’m in…
ony hoo - that said - I did wonder if you could consider that your wains are now perhaps well equipped to manage on their own? From what I’ve read it sounds like you have a good bonded thing going there and that’s given them a great start.
Mumble mumble - I’m sure there was something more profound to say but it’s gone so I’ll stop.
OK, l'll go out on a limb and offer unasked for advice....dah dah dum (drum roll)....start meditating!
l started meditating around 3 years ago (just after the sledge hammer of the PD diagnosis hit). Nowadays l do 15 minutes daily. The thing is, l was also just like you, "highly strung" l often heard, and that's the last thing you want to be with PD! Nowadays l still get the occasional wobbles but feel generally much more relaxed than l ever was. And best of all, l can relax on command! It feels good, more in control, more balanced. This despite the relentless challenges of living with the huge shit which is PD. Meditation helps me every day.
*hugs*

Hi Emma. Good points. I would imagine given your past it's hard to let go, but that you must. Listen when you're kids talk but don't
tell them what to do. They won't do it.make your self happy.
Hi dear Emma
