How are you feeling?

I feel like a could cry rivers at the moment. I don't know if certain recent events are breaking the damn against the 'oceans of sadness' I'm sure I recall Laura mentioning in her work. I'm liquidating my business, which has been going for 15 years. I've been positive about it and am looking at it as a fresh start. The men that have worked with me for years will all be looked after and there isn't any bad blood in that regard, and they will continue to work with me if poss, and we will probably transfer the clients and projects to a business belonging to a dear friend and long term business associate, so it should be ok.

But today our 4 month old baby was taken into hospital with lung issues, and they say they will keep her for at least five days. And the set up here (Bulgaria) is 'mother and child' hospitals, and I can't go. Which is...I don't what to say about that stuff anymore without ranting, having been estranged from my first son by the brutality of the UK family law courts.

I cannot imagine being without her. Can you please say a prayer for her - her name is Eva. She is getting tested to find out what is wrong with her at the moment, they will test for COVID, but I've no confidence in the veracity of those tests for obvious reasons. Once we get a diagnosis maybe i can post here for some advice because i have very low confidence in the medical sector
She's been diagnosed with pneumonia. They have a treatment protocol to implement immediately.

Sorry to hear that you're going through this, she will be in my prayers. I know how difficult it is. Hopefully she will rest well and sleep lots, quite likely at her age. It's crazy that they won't allow both parents to be there or at least to swap over. If it is going to be five nights some kind of support is very helpful. Can anyone visit or provide support while she's there?

My wife is there with her. And if I stop feeling sorry for myself for a moment and realise that it leaves her alone there with our daughter, I see that the situation is unacceptable for us both.

We can drop supplies off to her etc but are not allowed inside to visit because, I'm now told, of viruses and infections etc. this is the difficulty of being an emigrant I guess because I've got no basis to push back. It feels like COVID era stuff, but maybe there are sound medical reasons Im not aware of given it's a unit for infants.

I am sorry to hear about this problem. And it's a shame that they don't allow both parents in or to swap. But maybe, like you said, they have good reasons. Your little daughter will be in my thoughts and prayers for a swift recovery under competent treatment, despite current circumstances. :flowers:

Trials like these encourage us to “buckle down” and seek inner peace more deeply, and I believe that such experiences are necessary to strengthen us in the face of the future that the “wave” has in store for us. When he was three, my son had viral meningitis. The problem was that he experienced “storms” in his brain, with electrical surges every time he tried to fall asleep. More dramatic than dangerous. Imagine my anxiety as an uninformed mother! Today, he’s a strapping young man. Stay strong

I can already see the truth in what you say - certain things that have been bothering me are already recognized as less important than I'd imagined them to be.
 
I can feel your frustration Asa, sorry that your baby has pneumonia having 4 months old. If you can’t go to hospital, you can support physically and mentally your wife and the baby, when they return after the baby recovered, I’ll pray that will be the case!
