Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
almost got a secondary job at the butchers. I went in for faggots and they said 'sorry, we can't make them as don't have enough staff, if you know anyone who wants a job?'
I said 'part-time?' Then they went quiet. Anyway I bought a burger. |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
Having to deal with health issues which are stressful both from an SA and a general perspective.
Feeling like I have little support for this kind of thing. The rest of my family are all a long way away and I have no close friends. |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
I am so tired! I was unemployed for eight months and now I'm day 5 of 12 hour night shifts.
I sleep horribly working nights and have had maybe 12 hours sleep TOTAL in the last week. |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
^ Christ, no wonder you're tired. Only one more shift until a nice break though!

@ Neverwas - I know this place is no substitute for family and friends, but there are people here who can understand and relate.

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
^ thanks.
I just get these sudden extremely gloomy moods at times, not with any obvious trigger. Today I feel tired but on edge, jittery, probably from too much caffeine. |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
Feeling so stressed and very sad about our 16 year old cat. We just paid £200 to the Vet to basically be told what we already knew.
She has severe thyroid issues and kidney disease and there's nothing that can be done. She's drinking excessively, is barely eating and is losing weight rapidly. She's still loving and affectionate though. The vet said that when she stops eating completely and doesn't want affection to think about calling it a day. This is the WORST part of having a pet. She absolutely hates going to the vets so we will have someone come here when it's time. I wish she would drift off naturally and peacefully in her sleep so we won't have to make the decision |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
^ It is terrible. We have had to do it for 2 of our dogs, it is absolutely heart wrenching. As you can't tell them you're doing it for the best.

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
^^Really sorry to hear that Consolida, it's such a difficult decision to make. It's good that the vet will come to the house, that's always better so the pet is in their own comfortable environment

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
I'm also sorry to hear this, Consolida

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
It is the worst part of having a pet and sadly, because their lifespans are relatively short (but also long enough that they become integral family members), an inevitably. Whenever you make that decision (unless you are spared, mercifully, from having to make it), it will be made with love and the desire to prevent a loved one from suffering unnecessarily.
It's a horrible decision to have to make, but knowing that it's for the right reasons and that she had a good life should, I hope, give you some strength. Sent from my M2010J19CG using Tapatalk |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
I am so tired!
Oh my gosh! This is my 11th 12 hour night shift in a row. I'm also stuck doing the physical side for a few months. I forgot the body can ache like this lol |

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
That doesn't sound like it should be allowed, Katie. I hope they're paying you well.

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
Consolida, so sorry to hear about your cat. It must be traumatic, and I think pets are part of the family. 16 seems like a good age for a cat, so at least she has had a long life in a loving home.

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
Sorry about your cat Consolida.

Thank you GI. It's certainly the worst thing about having a pet and you're right about them being an integral part of the family. We inherited her from my mum 19 months ago, after she passed away, and most nights she sleeps on the bed between myself and my husband. She was originally a rescue cat and has been such a loving friend to us all. Quote:

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
^ Aw yes, we had two dogs that needed to be put the sleep (at seperate times) and the vet came to the house both times so it wasn't stressful for them at all and we could say goodbye properly. It's so sad, but it's often the best thing when they do get to a point of suffering and it's not possible for them to recover

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)
Feeling heartbroken. The vet is here now and so I said my goodbyes and had to go to a different room as I couldn't stop the tears and I want to remember her alive. My husband has stayed by her side while she takes her last sleep. We spent the morning cuddling with her on the bed. She was such a loving and affectionate girl and we were so lucky to have her in our lives.
