Finally a positive post, [View all]

It took me exactly 6 months and 3 days since MrsK passed to get LilBit day services!!! And how I fought to get her to this. She just finished her first full week away from Dad. And oh, how she has changed. She is now happy, and a bit tired ( new schedule, she can’t sleep till 10 or 11). I’m so happy for her.
It was because of you all, and the GoFundMe that you gave to allow me to spend my days making calls and fighting for her. Thanks.

So, where am I in the grief process? My grief process went from dark, as I saw it, to bright light when LilBit got day service. It feels weird to me when I drop her off.

So here is where Koz is, finally get to think about me, LilBit is happy. I need to fill up my free time, Mon-Fri while she is ok.I struggle with that. So I job searched around Gainseville, face to face.
I need to decide by Wednesday, on 1 of 4 job offers I have. Old school face to face seems to still work. I’ll pick one,

I started the GoFundMe to get us to Dec. I will accept a job and be working and earning. I gotta ask for one more hit till the pay checks come in. 1k more on GoFundMe and we good .

I’m proud that I fought for us and you guys did too. My initial goal was Dec. now can you help to get us through Sep? And I’ll shut down the GoFundMe.
