If I could have anything I wanted...

[jazzy]

Hi girls! I'm getting very bored and depressed right now so thought I would start this...

If I could have anything I wanted... I would have more independence, a dog to assist me, more social interaction and more confidence, the ability to walk again, no need to rely on a carer and no need to use a hoist .

Anybody else? Sorry, I feel really down tonight... I'm angry and frustrated with my life and the fact that my disability takes over xxx

Sorry to hear you are feeling so frustrated Jazzy.

If I could have anything I wanted.... I would not have lost my baby and would now be 17 weeks pregnant and looking forward to finally being a mum instead of feeling like it is all hopeless and that that was my only chance and I have lost it.

Oh Jazzy, I hope you are feeling better this morning. I wish you could have those things to. Hopefully your confidence can grow which will help you with the social side of things as well.

Kate, when I saw the title of this post my initial thought was exactly the same as yours, I should have been celebrating reaching the 12 week marker today and I wish that I was still pregnant and that we were still looking forward to meeting our little one.

But, I think actually I still can look forward to becoming parents as I have to believe it will happen for us, and hopefully next year. Don't give up the hope!

I do think that while you can't change things you can make things happen with positive thought. I'm a realist and I know you can't 'think' yourself pregnant but I think if I am positive, believe it can happen and use that energy to make sure I am the fittest and healthiest I can be, then that can only help.

I actually think I am really lucky because even though I might not have everything I want, I've got a lot of things that I'm really fortunate to have!

If I could have anything I wanted, I'd have my husbands mental health back. And pay off the credit card (although that would mean he would be OK anyway)

Good luck for everyone else! Got to have a dream...
