I do not go and talk to young folks because I am still sort of new to my recovery, and I have had a lot of set backs...BUT through this all one thing I have really learned is the power of a yorkie...Bruce was given to me when I was going through extreme heartache and as a result falling back on old unhealthy ways hoping he would take the focus off of me...AND HE HELPED!!! He has always been so sensitive, and after I had him if I tried to "purge" he was at my heals and would just come lay his head on my knee...So now Sundays he visits the girls at a local hospitals eating disorders unit where I once resided, during their dinner time, and apparently getting the focus of eating has helped a few of them...So that I am happy to share, Bruce I really credit with saving my life, because of him I had a new focus, I finished law school, etc. ANIMALS and especially Yorkies are miracles! |
oh wow - you ARE doing something with your life efforts to overcome this - good for you ! He must be such a hit in the hospital
and congrats on finishing law school !!
I agree with you so much about yorkies. When my husband died - so much of the time right after is a blur...even now I can hardly remember many days except for the crying & emotion & though I fell apart I knew I had to girls to feed and take care of so they really kept me going - especially at night. There were so many nights I layed there crying then would look at them and try to pull myself together for THEIR sake - They didn't get groomed as ususal and it sure shows LOL - but they've been my little rocks - as are my friends.
You have a friend right here if you ever need to talk and you just keep on doing what you're doing -
I think you already climbed Mt. Rainer !
and ps - after posting on this DOUGHNUT thread - I told you guys you made me hungry - I met a friend at IHOP and made a pig of myself - man - NOW I know why I'm a light eater in the mornings - I had to take a nap I was so full LOL - so...... NO doughuts for me !
