    Dear Anita,

    I had been avoiding talking to him about it because I know that he’d urge me to carry on with it, as in the past he has said ‘you’ve got to stick this out, you don’t want to end up like me.’ I have an opportunity tomorrow to chat to him, maybe then would be the perfect time. Thank you for your advice, it is much appreciated.

    Hey Sarah,

    My heart goes out to you. My sister’s beloved dog died suddenly recently. She went downhill very quickly and it was all so sudden. The whole family were devastated as we all loved her dearly. My sister tortured herself, wishing she’d noticed sooner or done more.

    Please be gentle on yourself. I echo what others have said: you did the right thing and you need to forgive yourself. I know a good process for this, which I learnt on a More to Life weekend. I can talk you through it via e-mail if you wish. In the meantime, look after yourself. Your beautiful dog is at peace now and I’m sure she’d want you to be at peace with yourself.

    Love,

    Rosie

    Hi,

    Anita – those weren’t his exact words but I can say for certain he’s worked hard all his life to provide us with a roof over our heads.

    Lajo, thank you for your input. I will look up the Bach remedies. I do need a fun hobby, I am just not having fun in life right now.

    Thank you both,

    Hi Anita,

    Thank you for your response. It is mainly my Dad. He suggested this course of study and after further looking into it I decided to do it.

    My Dad is actually very poorly with stage IV cancer and I feel in a way I am making him proud by doing this. Although I do feel that I would never do something solely to please someone else, I am indeed letting it have a bearing on my (in)decision making process. I do know my Dad would want me to be happy and he wouldn’t want me to do this if it wasn’t what I wanted. He slaved away his whole life for us and he just wants us to be financially secure I guess.

    I also know that the rest of my family may be a little disappointed but as I said, it’s mainly my Dad.

    I think the crippling fear of the unknown is worse though. Sigh!
