| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

| | Thank you again all! Damiea, we absolutely love having the little ones, and we are not shy about it as your parents seem to be! I would venture to say we are a free babysitting service.  |

| | Thank you both for the good wishes! I am not certain about Angela and her parents, however Veiled please don't feel sorry for Rick as he gave us enough grief in his youth that he has a bit coming to him now.  Truthfully though I am very pleased and proud for him being a father now. These two little ones are his first children. |

| | congratulations to you and your entire family at the arrival of your new grandsons. It is certainly a blessing for the grandparents to have a namesake. I wish you all the best. ALthough I am feeling overwhellmed for your daughter in law, as I know I find it hard to cope with two little ones and there are 18months between mine. I am sure she will be fine though as she has the support of you and your family.

| | Thank you Nicolette and Tammy. Yes Tammy, things are already becoming a bit hairy. Angela came home yesterday and as she has had a c section she can barely move about. Rick has been granted 2 weeks leave which is helpful except that he is uncertain what to do! ;) He rung me up this morning for advice, and I could barely hear him over the cries of the little ones. He sounded quite desperate. Angela's mother is arriving from Quebec tomorrow, otherwise I would be going there myself to help. I may still go later after her departure, and after Rick has gone back to work. A c section is quite the ordeal and Angela will be sore for some time. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
