i just took my first bath since beginning of oct
 
i took a terrible fall when i was getting out of the bathtub.
i called the doorman to say i was taking a bath and if he didn't here from me within hour to send somebody up. all went well and the bath rail really helped.
i called linda and she said once for 8 months she had to use sponge baths.

Well done bobby.
Hopefully it won't be too long before you can actually enjoy it again rather than be fearful. Great to hear that the rail helps.

thank you so much. you are right. I still have fear about the next time that might be tomorrow. I ran into my super today and he said he bought the same bath rail so his father now he is now back in business. I
used to take a bath every day practically.
today my depression got so painful I couldn't read. I have Bach playing. Then my friendly visitor called. I thought he would be too busy with his family so didn't expeat to hear from him, He seems to know everything. i told him i ordered cocoa because it is good for the stomach. he knew with the prebiotics etc.
He had told me that his mother put up 12 xmas trees at thanksgiving and they will stay till russian christmas in jan. The tallest one is 12 ft tall. I just found out they are all artificial. he comes from such a loving family.
fondly.

thanks so much. this has been the worse yet. I can't stop thinking how horrible my mother used and abused me. I was a precocious little kid. When I was very little one of my jobs I start starting in first grade was to come home for lunch and call my father at his office to see if he were drunk. If he were drunk I would have try to get him to come. this wasn't a one time deal this went on for years. Then I would have to go drunk driving with him. My sister who was older wasn't asked by my mother to do anything. my mother used to tell me on weekends sometimes to lay down with him besides she was cold. My sister always got new clothes. my mother took me to thrift shops. I did wear a uniform starting in eight grade. When my mother started a fight with my father when he was drunk i had to stop it even as a very little girl.
I am just haunted. The worst was when I was older and she had money but told me let the state take care of me.
how would you like to grow up in a family like that and try to forget but especially on holidays which my mother and father spent with their grandchildren. I have such a stomach ache.
love.
