Hi Melissa!
Im glad your back!! Wow, you really have a lot on your plate!
I can relate to the panic attack, I had one last August and boy was it frightening. I also realized that I had to slow down for my health and sanity!
Taking time out for yourself is really important and underestimated also.
I hope you have a better month, take it one day at a time.
Remember to take time out for you, you deserve it! Even a nice hot bubble bath with some candles, a manicure/pedicure, and a nice massage.
Sounds soo good and I should take my own advice as well lol!

Moni :)

(((((((((Hugs))))))))))Melissa, glad you are back. Sounds like you need some "me" time, down time and whatever else kind of time you can get in there. I know dealing with parents that aren't well can be exhausting. Just have to take it one day at a time. You can only do so much. Don't let food be your friend. I know when I was dealing with my dad being terminal and watching him fade away the last week of his life, you would have thought I would have turned to food especially with so many people bringing food to the hospital for all of us, but instead, I didn't, in fact I would go home and do a power workout just to get some of the anxiety out of my system. I would be peddling my bike and crying, and just asking God to help him go so he wouldn't suffer. So you don't have to turn to food. Lean on our shoulders here girl, we will help you.

Hi Melissa!
I'm Stefanie, and I'm fairly new to the boards.
I noticed that you're a teacher...that's awesome! I am, too, but I just got my certificate this past May and haven't found a job yet.
I just stopped by to say hello and wish you the best with everything that's going on in your life right now.
