"Mental Health"

There’s a doctor at the hospital called Dr Eamon. He’s been pretty strong with me, and it didn’t go down too well at first. He’s been marvellous with mental health. He set me straight right from the start, and I didn’t like it. He has been hard on me, but I’m a lot better now.

I have come to realise that I’m 77, and I can’t keep living with the pain and the horror of my childhood. Dr Eamon said it’s time to learn and grow, but it’s also time for me to move on from the past and move on to the good things. He never gave up on me. He said that I have to grow. 

With that, and with the assistance of my husband, who was a psychiatric nurse, I have been able to move forward. I wanted to say how much I have appreciated it. I have moved on and I’m doing things like paint by numbers now.
