My stomach is in a huge knot....

Perth, Australia
August 7, 2020 4:11pm CST
I haven't been able to come on here like usual due to a some reasons. Had been sick, I'm back to my classes at my Childcare Course, finally back doing my Prac work at a Childcare Centre and just been overall tired. I managed to screenshot my notifications about a week ago so if I was to lose them, I would be able to find them again but I feel I have lost some as I didn't take a screenshot of them all. I don't know. I'm still catching up but sorry if I haven't got back to you, I've just lost the notification. And no, I'm not stressing about it! I personally just like to answer and / or Like the comments that come my way. Plus, it's an OCD thing. I'm not losing sleep over it! It's just how I am. It's just a bit after 5am right now. My dad knocked on my door roughly about 1am saying he needed to go to the hospital. My dad (hopefully you guys remember the dramas with my dad's foot so I don't need to explain but will if need be) was doing really well with his foot, long story short he woke me to tell me that a huge lump has formed on his foot and his toes are all red. His temperature was 38...something and he is experiencing chills. He had issues getting inside the hospital due to this new thing being done there (due to COVID-19, seems you need to scan a QR Code) and I don't know, anyway dad couldn't work it out. He came home and I told him he was in the wrong area anyway, I did offer to come along but he said for me to stay home. So yeah I'm here trying to catch up (distract myself) on here. My stomach is in a huge knot and has been over the past few weeks. My Poppy (grandfather) isn't doing well with his dementia as well as passing out in random places which stresses my Nanny out and obviously stresses my dad out (his parents) and yeah just a bit more going on at the moment regarding family. I honestly hope this all made sense. I'm tired, I'm worried and for the first time, I don't feel like proof reading. But I will be on here going through my Discussions to see if I can find anything to answer from lost notifications. First I am going to do some tidying around the house. I can't sleep right now anyway with all this worry. I did text him asking if he managed to get in but haven't heard anything back. Hoping he is with doctors right now. So again, sorry if I don't get back to you, notifications lost. But otherwise I hope you're all well and safe.

I am like you, I really feel bad if I miss to reply to some notifications, but the past days with all those errors I got I am sure I missed some. Well do not stress about that. I feel so sorry for your dad, do you get news from him? I hope he was finally checked at the hospital. Your Poppy is already pretty old, but your daddy is still young, I hope the best for both them. Try to relax, I wish the best to you and your father.

@VivaLaDani13 I have read your more recent post. I am so sorry to know that your father is not really improving, this is a lot of stress both for him and for you.

@LadyDuck Thank you Anna. I am pretty close to answering those notifications. Getting there finally. Yeah it's just a sad and distressing situation. And to throw a bit more into the mix, a man who was in the same room as my dad has some type of virus ( I forget what it was as I've never heard of it before ) but it's highly contagious so my poor dad has to have certain tests done to make sure he doesn't have it. And where they take the test....isn't exactly a comfortable one I can imagine. He had three of them done yesterday and has to have 3 more today / tonight. They swab you from...behind. Hopefully he is free from that as that would make matters worse!

@LadyDuck I am glad you understand me. Those errors really can be such a nuisance! My dad is still in hospital. I spoke to him tonight for almost an hour. I feel awful. A lot is going on. But still hard to say yet if his foot, or possible his leg is safe. So been quite horrible and stressful at the moment. Thank you kindly for your comment.

@VivaLaDani13 Hello Danielle, I remember your last year's story about your father, in fact it is painful just to remember it, so I will not dig into that. I just hope from the bottom of my heart it all goes well with your dad's foot. It sounds like this is a hectic time you are going through and I am sure it'll all end up soon, just be patient and strong! You are admirable! Don't worry for not being able to catch up with notifications! Hugs!

@jvicentevalera I really do respect your belief, please know that I am not religious. Not an Atheist either but just easy to say "not religious." But I still thank you for your kind words and words of support and encouragement. You have nailed it though, I have been feeling like giving up lately due to everything going on but just trying to be strong. Thank you so much for understanding me even with things I haven't even admitted.

@jvicentevalera Hey! Good to see you! Yes it's still all going on unfortunately. I am feeling awful for my dad who just wants this all to be over and done with. Thank you so very much for your very sweet comment. It made me smile and kinda cry a little bit. Not in a bad way at all! I just mean the support means a lot to me! Thank you so much and I really hope you are doing well!

@VivaLaDani13 thank you Danielle! I will keep your dad in my thoughts and prayers so he can progressively get well soon! Stay strong, I guess you might feel like giving up sometimes but life is made of tests that all of us have to pass, in the end God above always watches over us which means he will never let us down!

I'm behind on reading and commenting on your posts, so my apologies for getting to these late. My heart goes out to you for everything going on that has you worried and stressed. It's so hard when you care about your family members and worry about them as well. I know it's your nature to be caring and concerned, so I know how much this is bothering you. Stay strong Dani, and know that I am praying for you.

@moffittjc If you did that, I'd crumble. When I'm vulnerable and someone hugs me I just break. So be prepared for that!

I wish he would let you go with him. IF it is like here, though, you would end up waiting in the car. Please let us know how things turn out.

@GardenGerty Thank you Heather. I will be doing another update a bit later once I am more caught up with notifications. But basically he is still there in the hospital and due to me being sick, I cannot visit him right now. I feel so bad for my dad and everything he is going through.
