pain, whether from within, or inflicted externally is pain.

no truer words, and this dissociative mind takes me from it quickly usually. when it doesn't, it's hell because it's something we're not used to. is it just me that thinks pain is more painful for us because of that?

zh, i wish you well, and hope every day you're pulling through the pain, fog, and isolation it can cause.

dog has been lifeline as usual but sometimes much moreso and really a blessing we couldn't have ever foreseen or expected. responsibility of more than a dog just baffles us as to how we've managed to hold jobs of more responsibility over our lifetime. meh. this is neither here nor there.

thanks KD. glad the sweet boy has a bunny. he continues to be a blessing for you and yours and you and yours are blessings for him as well.
