Discovery Home & Health

OK guys, got little's story, she asked me to put it on here. Her DH started hitting her after Katy was born, due to his schizophrenia getting worse. Social services got involved with the family then. He then tried to smother Katy before christmas, and the police got involved, as little managed to stop him just before Katy stopped breathing. Little took katy and went to her mum's for a couple of nights, and Steve rang to say he had packed up their stuff and had changed the locks, and if she didn't collect it he would burn it all. He also took all the money from their accounts, leaving her with nothing. She has now had to flee to a womens refuge with Katy, who she says is thriving by the way!! She's 30 miles away from family and friends, but closer to me in Nottingham, so I'm going to try and meet up with her. She's waiting until she can get a house through the council, and she is hoping to get access to a computer an internet soon to get back in touch with us. Steve is banned from seeing Katy (as you can imagine), he was arrested and charged with attempted murder and is on bail until 18th March. The divorce is going through now, so she's having to endure a lot. She does still see her family, they visit her, so that is better than nothing. If you go on the MSN site, her mobile number is on there, if any of you want to get in touch with her. I think she needs to hear she has some support from some mates!

OMG i have just read what has been happeningt to little and feel so bad for her, will get her no off msn and text her early next week to see howshe is doing no woman deservs to go threw that. hope everyone else is ok

Tigger, many thanks for letting us know. I'll try to get Little's number & contact her.

Poor little, can't imagine what she is going through, but she will need lots of support. Suddenly all those things that I moan about don't seem relevant. Will text her next week.

Tigger, congratulations again, keep us updated with all wedding plans.

Laurie, I hope work is going ok.

Daniel has had a viral infection and screamed the other night solidly for 5 hours, dh had to take him out in the car eventually just to calm him down. He is pickled in a rash and generally very grumpy.

Take care eveyone

It is soooo weird
I was just looking through Little's profile to see when she posted last!!! Then I came onto our thread and saw Tigger's post!
The poor thing! I was worried about what had happened to her. I thought she was just so busy with life as a Mummy!
The poor poor thing

CONGRATULATIONS Tigger on your engagement. Sorry I did not get around to texting you back. You must be soooo pleased Ohhhh its such fun planning a wedding!!!

We are all good at this end. Tom is teething good and proper!
I am knackered
I also feel really down as I am due back to work on Tuesday
It all seems a little irrevelant compared to poor Little's troubles. But its stressing me at the moment!!!

Anyway - chat again
Love Emily x x x

Emily I go back to work in 6 weeks, and yes it is only 3 days a week but I am getting myself really worked up about it. unfortunatley DH does not understand, because I worked before and now I am just going back....MEN!!!!

WOW Anna
Look at your weight loss!! SOOOO impressed with you :-)

Wish I was where you are with the weight loss!!!

I am pleased that you understand re the going back to work thingy!!!
I am SOOOOO worked up about it, I even have upset tummies, feel sick, miserable, tearful!! (no I am not preg again!!)

What are we going to do???

Helen
Is it as bad this time around as it was the first??

This is just dreadful!!!!

Emily for me it is worse this time!! I can't bear the thought of leaving my little man, but I know he will enjoy nursery, its nice and small and really friendly and Emily loved it. And he will spend one day with my mum.
These last 6 weeks are ruined really because I am counting down the weeks and worrying about it.

Whats happening to Tom when you go back??

hi girls has anyone text little was just wondering how she is?

Emma, I've texted Little but she ddn't get back to me. I do hope that she's ok.

Laurie how are you getting on being back at work??

well hay girls ive had some news not sure how to take it though, I'M PREGNANT . soo not what i wanted but with my history of misscarrage there is no way i could even consider a termination but i dont want four kids i am just about back to normal after jake but hay everything happens for a reason. any advice would be greatly recived as dean has his vasectomy next week talk about shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted

talk soon bye

Emma it must be a HUGE shock to you. I have a friend who is pregnant with her 4th and she is in denial about the whole thing. They will have to get a new car to carry all the children and the idea of a day out with 4 children is like a very expensive expedition.
I wish you well with what ever you decide to do, sorry I can't offer any advice because it is such a personal decision depending on your cir****tances. But you must do what is right for you and your family, but as you don't want a termination then there really isn't too many options.
Let us know what you decide and how you get on....always here if you need someone to chat to!! Oh and congratulations xxx
