Got a question?

I am copying my friend Lauren and putting in a place for people to ask me questions! They can be anonymous if you like and can be about anything at all!
If you have a question about a blog post, or just want to know something more about me, or where I stand on a certain issue, then ask away!
All the answers will be there for you to read!

So please feel free at any time to ask me something. I will try and answer as best I can, and it may even be a blog topic you would like me to write about.

I have already answered a few questions, please keep them coming!!

A big welcome too to my new followers. For those that read, but don't neccessarily comment or Follow, please drop me an email or a comment from time to time, just so I know you are there. Many times I have thought about making this blog private, but for now, have decided not to. So if you are a regular reader, please say Gday or publicly follow!

I have also added a few new WHS families blogs to my link thingy. So welcome to the blogging world! Go and visit them and lend your support.

    Isn't formspring awesome! I got the idea from Afryka (on facebook) and then realized that it would be great for the blog. I just hope that I have unlimited questions. It helps with bloggers block too bc if you don't know what to post you can always answer a question as a post!

    Hmmm I will have to ask you some questions (I already asked you two - the $100,000 one and the WHS affecting you positively one!) Hee hee!

    Oh No, please don't go private. As many people as possible need to find out how AWESOME you are :)

    Hmm. Questions. The trouble with me and questions is that I'm a writer and I always want to get to the heart of the matter. So I'd ask deeply personal things that may not be quite the thing - I don't do polite conversation very well I'm afraid. But I'll put my mind to it and see if I can come back with something bloggable.

Some things just never get easier

I have logged back in to write today as we come to the end of lockdown 3.0. I just saw in my unpublished posts my thoughts about lockdown 1.0. Hmmm. I might publish that one day!  Today's topic feels like something I have written about before. Over the past few weeks, Ryley has been undergoing assessments. These assessments are necessary in order for us to receive adequate funding under the NDIS.  Long story short, Ryley's last NDIS plan has failed to provide the funding he needs in order to participate fully in the things we had planned for his transition out of school.  The whole process has felt a bit messy.  It started with me not being listened to. This is despite my strong, knowledgeable-of-systems-and guidelines voice. No blaming or shaming here. It just is as it is.  However, for those that know me well, know that when you try and 'quieten' my voice, I will only speak louder. Especially when it comes to advocating and speaking for those that can't.  As expec

Blogging 101-how do I do this again?

Image
Sometimes I wander back into this blog and check out a few of my past posts. I read some of the wonderful blogs I used to follow regularly and contemplate writing here again.  So many things have changed in my life over the past few years.  The teenage years are...difficult.  I feel very alone in this raising a teenage boy with WHS thing. There is no one really to answer my questions, and I spend most of my days feeling as though my son hates me. I know he doesn't, but this is tough. Way tougher than I thought it would be.  So here I am.  Tracking my journey again. It may help others.  It may help me. But I feel as though there is so little support out there for parents who have teenagers with WHS...or any other disability for that matter.  I feel compelled to write. So, I will eventually update this blog so it looks a bit fancier and with the times again (ha!). But this is me. Raw. Unedited. Changed.

Defeated...for now

At the moment, I am just surviving. I should have known it was only a matter of time before I fell over again and needed some help to get back up. Stress. Anxiety. Exhaustion. They seem to come hand in hand don't they? And I should have really just taken a moment when I felt the stress building up. I should have just said 'hey, I need a day or two to myself'. But I didn't. And here I am. I am ok by the way. Just in between sick kids, a sick me, work, a zillion extra appointments to somehow squeeze into my already full days...well...it all just became a bit much. Cue: Me in tears sitting in my Managers office. Thank goodness I have a supportive and wonderful workplace. She saw I needed time out and told me to take it. The worst bit of it all is the stupid anxiety that came back. For those that suffer from anxiety (whether it be a sometimes thing like me, or an ongoing disorder), it truly sucks the life out of you. My body just completely went into adre
