Hello Friends... This is shallimarRose... I feel I owe you all an explanation after just kind of disappearing from boomers.. Thos of you who are my friends on the shallimarRose profile I am sure have noticed the name change to poets and pens also.. I did that so those poets posting there could continue using the site.. OK here is where I have been... As some of you long time Boomers friends of mine on here may remember I had been suffering depression and flashbacks from a rape at the age of 20... I went into therapy in 2013 and found it was deeper then even I knew.. Maybe I will expand on that here soon but right now here is where my life and priorities have been... In 2013 you may remember mother fell and broke her hip At that time it became a full time job for me.. Caring for a loved one while suffering depression is anything but easy.. Then on January 16th of 2015 mom suffered a massive stroke that left her paralized and we had to put her into a home.. I have always been very close to mom and it broke my heart to hve to leave her there... I began going five days a week and staying 8 hours a day... i ran myself into the ground doing this for over a year.. I guess I really over did it because my immune system turned on me and i became very ill... Mom passed away April 2016..... I feeling guilty for not being with her the last few weeks due to illness drove me deeper into depression as well as illness... I have been diagnosed with a veriety of things one being hashimotos disease which is causing my immune stystemm to attack my thyroid and other organs.. I dont promise to be back as a regular here but I am going to try to check in often.. I missed all my friends here and I have missed working with you all trying to keep prayers open to everyone... Please accept my apologies for the long hiatus.. Sincerley, sR shallimarRose
