Hi friends,
For those who were following the previous thread and giving us your support, I'm sorry I went offline for a few days. I needed to regroup. I'm re-evaluating everything right now, so I don't have a lot to say.
I'll just say that I did take Jessi back to the University clinic and the surgeon proposed his only option which is the most extreme surgery possible.
I am pausing now to take the time to really check in and understand what is best for me and Jessi. I include myself in that equation because I'm just as important as she is, even though I often forget that. If I am unhappy, unhealthy, unbalanced, unable to keep up with everything, it directly impacts her, just as her wellbeing and happiness impacts me.
So it really has to be a decision that is the best for both of us.
That's all I have for now, I will write more when I get clear. I just wanted to check in since I know some of you were concerned.
Thank you for caring. Thank you for being there. Thank you for all the information, the reflections, the insights, the encouragement, thank you for taking time from your busy schedules and commitments to offer some words, share your experiences, to read and consider mine, thank you for letting me vent and express my feelings, not just my thoughts, my questions and concerns. Thank you for sharing this experience with me and Jessi and having the intention to help us in any way you could.
I may turn to you again. Right now, I just have to be with this for a little while, take time to be with Jessi in a calmer more present state, enjoy the precious moments I have with her, in between all the doing, doing, doing...
Life is so precious and fleeting, isn't it?
MORE TIME and a BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE, the two things that can be lost in seeking to gain more of them.
Paradoxical isn't it?
I just have to stop now and be with her to know better what is the best next step for her and for me, both.
Lots of love to you and your feline friends
Stefania
