this weekend was hard.

boyfriend drove me down 6 hour trip to home after a shift at work friday got in at past 1am, all to see dying person in hospital who was like grandma to me. She wasn't very aware, hospitals scary and no fun places we was kinda wantisng to run aways we really wantesed runs but stayed for her and family. Stay there long time no food to eat =( was very hungry got back. And next day (sunday) drove back here nother 6 hour trip. Sad cuz as soon as getting back I did bad thing and feel very sad/guilty for it.

So sitting here, exhausted very sad, need to work tomorrow. Was supposed to work today but had to ask for a day off so I could go there.

Just so hard, feel numb empty and so so so so sad.

So sorry that you've had such a tough weekend (((turquoisesea))). I can really feel your pain and sadness through your words. However, I think it's wonderful and very courageous of you to go to the hospital to visit your dear friend even though it affected you so deeply - I'm sure she appreciated your presence even if she wasn't completely aware. Now, it's time for you to care for yourself - you need comfort and consolation - do whatever it takes to give yourself what you truly need - warm bath, good food, rest, and sleep. You are a fragile being and should treat yourself as such - be kind to and gentle with yourself. Please keep posting when you can and let us know how you are doing.
