the next day you receive an angel
the story;
im still in awe and it still brings tears to my eyes and i dont generally crymuch
was 40 minutes early for OP class so out having a smoke. One girl [my age? i think] was there so we strted chatting, she told me she had 15 minute fre time from 2 west[psych ward upstairs], toldher i had been there too..she asked why [if i dint mindas i seemed so happy lol] told her....are you ready????
THE TRUTH!!!!!!
that im a si'er and it got out of control so was admitted
i admired her bracel;et, east indian stylish.and she said gift shop had them around xmas... and you an guess why she bbought one, to hid scrs
then...she said 'oh wait a minute...i'll be rioght back'
she bought me one..i'll attempt a pic
she said she saw th native ones and they seemed more me
i did not know what to say..i started to cry in sghock and joy...she said thank you for being honest, as it letg her practice being honest too
just when you hate the the world, an angel comes in some form aor another..
i could not belirve it !!!!!!
*goes to attempt pics
thx rowie....it was perfect timing...like perhaps your upcoming admission!!!!
i'll look for her around same time, i'll go early again..and hope...and also go to 2west and see if i can visit her...i know when im in a visit is lovely )

that is such a cool bracelet
and that is an awesome story
you should definitely visit her and stay in touch
*sniffle*
that sounds like a really rare and special moment, like you know sharing honesty and practicing honesty... just really speshul
it's nice connecting with strangers on such a deep level like that, when you don't expect it
That bracelet is incredible! From the quality of the jewlery and the awesome girl who gave it to you. What a gift. Thanks for telling us about it!

In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
Wow, that's so awesome! The whole story is just great, it's gonna make me smile all night. Thanks for sharing :) And let us know if you see her again next time, that'd be to cool!
i'm still floored....i cant believe...gonna see if i can get in to see her next wed. im bringing her flowers [or a lil flowering plant as it will last longer] ..i hope she likes them..it was one thing i wanted and mised in IP..something not sterile and cold...growth of new life....
it still makes me smile, i slept with it on...but im NOT gonna use it hide my wrist sui scars..ive left it lose, no more hiding
:o)

they wouldnt let me uin as im not family and she was not doing well....damn...i explained the situation and they said they would reklay the message when she settles down....but they said it is likely she will be moved to a tighter security hospital :o(
so sad to hear that....

[i think the nurse told me as much as she did since i had started to cry and get mad...i knew the nurse from my stays...]
I'm sure that she will be glad to receive the news that you stoped in to see her. If you wanted, maybe you could write her a note since you can't see her.
I'm sending positive thoughts her way, every little bit helps :)
It's a beautiful bracelet, Romp, and you do deserve it.
I'm sorry you didn't get to see her, but like Newanda says, it'll help her to know that you were there for her. Maybe you can write her a note or a card i she does get moved? It'll give her something to concentrate on, she can keep re-reading it.
Take care and passing good thoughts on to your angel!

If I knew that someone had tried to come and see me when I was sectioned it would have made me feel so special and cared for. You did a wonderful thing just by trying. *hugs* am proud of you. getting prouder by the post!

i'm sure she appreciates knowing you tried to visit her. maybe it was meant to be a one off encounter? maybe it was meant to be a lifelong friendship. love you hunbun, mand x
