I read your blog ...denial , anger, bargaining n depression. When the doc told me my condition it was disbelief ,shock, paralysis n then questions questions questions. Anger followed....Being a mum i had to manage just in case it affected my daughter. In stead of bargaining which i blocked out, i began to suppress all the denial, the anger n prevent i cant take it. I laughed to make things all right....<br /><br />My doc saw through me n commented that i could not be too independent. I hung in there as i dint want the whole situation to affect my girl or family. I told myself i would bring this secret to my grave.<br /><br />However it was too much , way too much to handle . When i was all alone, bargaining started. Resistance, struggle started up to the point of giving up n then depression set in. Outwardly i appeared ok but inwardly, uncertainty, fear, anger , denial, bargaining took a toll on my mental state.<br /><br />Recently my doc told me there is sign of menopause on top of my condition. I am not looking to have kids anymore. I am single mum who has gone through crap during the divorce n single handedly brought up my girl. But with so many medical conditions eating me up at the same time... i find it so hard to handle.<br /><br />Denial, anger all in one day..... Suppression of emotions n build up followed by bargaining n depression hit home. i think of ending it all but my girl is innocent n if i am gone she will be alone.<br /><br />I am still suffering from both .... decided acceptance must follow. yes i agree. acceptance is not giving up. So right now all that is in my mind is no longer why, how come .... but how to live each sec the happiest way i can be. I read that you are travelling/ touring? <br /><br />You are blessed in other things. I am blessed with a wonderful girl who keeps me going....<br /><br /><br />Lets continue to keep our head high...<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />ss_l3noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686293812613944742.post-49735056298889322322010-05-26T09:40:58.252-07:002010-05-26T09:40:58.252-07:00Thank you NI.

Though in saying that, I still have my weak days. xxGrace Mimmohttp://projectgrace2010.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686293812613944742.post-43978644523902847232010-05-26T09:39:31.053-07:002010-05-26T09:39:31.053-07:00Thank you Heather xxThank you Heather xxGrace Mimmohttp://projectgrace2010.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686293812613944742.post-86574847248037971192010-05-26T09:38:58.088-07:002010-05-26T09:38:58.088-07:00Thank you E xxThank you E xxGrace Mimmohttp://projectgrace2010.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686293812613944742.post-15551039458382020632010-05-25T21:48:58.860-07:002010-05-25T21:48:58.860-07:00It's a very brave step to share POF story.

I felt really worthless, but having POF has also made me a much stronger individual.<br /><br />NIGuestnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-686293812613944742.post-78479959065725716732010-05-25T12:49:50.081-07:002010-05-25T12:49:50.081-07:00Me too.

I was in my mid twenties when I was diagnosed but buried my head in the sand for some time as I thought 'no way' - unfortunately it is a case of 'yes way'! I think it shows real strength to openly talk about your diagnosis Grace.
