Dear Anita

Posting from my cell phone so pardon any typos lol.

Thank you for your advice! By the way the S in Shipp is for Sherry.. but I didn’t want to have that attached to every post.

As much as I love Emmett, he is a very selfish person. It’s not that he does it intentionally, he just truly doesn’t think not others. It doesn’t occur to him unless it’s pointed out to him. When I’m in the hospital, he’s so focused on his fear of losing me that he doesn’t support me when I need him the most.

We have 5 kids total. 3 are his and 2 are mine. The daughter that lives with us is mine and the 3rd in line of the kids (2 older 2 younger). She and Emmett don’t and won’t make the effort to be closer to each other. They put me in the middle of everything. And yes, I’ve had the talk with them about it.

Yes Brit needs therapy. I’ve talked with her about it but she won’t go. She is extremely introverted and shy. Has issues with depression and self worth. This is why I said that she has made such progress since she’s been living with me. And I do not want her to leave. I think that would be the worst thing for her.

I’ve also talked with them about should anything happen to me that they would be stuck together.

My home is a therapy in session and I do the best with what I know. The problem is when I have problems coping with a situation. When the therapist breaks down all he’ll breaks loose lol.

I have to go for now but I will check back in later tonight.

Oh!! Step monster texted today to ask if we were coming for Thanksgiving. Texted her back that we were staying home. One down now only my sister’s whining to deal with lol.

Talk to you again soon.

Take care
