Cacky: I feel better knowing wheels are in motion, guess you feel the same, good luck.

Andria: Thanks luv, guess what? I've heard I've just become a Grandad again, but the news didn't come from the daughter who had the baby, talk about mixed emotions! If it hadn't been for No.4 daughter breaking radio silence and sending me a text to tell me I'd still be non the wiser.

Michele: I just spoke to my doctor, started off with anti-depressants, mild dose to take the edge off. I've found it hard to tell if they are working as life has taken a few twists and turns recently, some good (hey these tablets really work!) and some not so good (hey these tablets aren't working, wonder if I've been given a placebo?) Anyway, time came to get another prescription and I unloaded some onto doctor, told him that I felt that ultimately I needed help to get things into perspective and that I wanted to see someone with experience of mind control cults, their methods and the emotional damage of being shunned by close family members who themselves are being damaged by the shunning, as some of my daughters are. I don't know how good or specialised the therapist will be but I'll go with the flow.
