Life

 Well life is boring at the moment. Just work, home & food shopping. The only exciting thing happening in our house is potty training, which seems to be going ok.

My health isn't great yet again. The doctors rechecked my bloods a month ago as I'm waiting for a follow up with gastroenterology but due to covid its been postponed. My results weren't great, haemoglobin levels were extremely low, the doctor said if it was to get any lower I would need a blood transfusion. So they increased the iron tablets that I am supposed to take (still struggle with compliance), rechecked my bloods 2 weeks later and they had increased ever so slightly. I have another blood test later this week to recheck the levels, fingers crossed the levels are better than last time as I would prefer not to have a transfusion.

A few weeks ago we went to my grandparents for tea and when I got there both of my sisters were there. I was expecting one of them to be there with my niece. But I certainly was not expecting the other sister to be there, she's the one that does not speak to me. It kind of threw me and I didn't know what to do, so I just sat down and my little one came running up to me as I had been at work all day so she hadn't seen me. The sister made a quick exit with her little one & boyfriend. If I had know they were going to be there I would have mentally prepared myself and maybe said hello or something, but I was completely thrown off.

So after giving it some thought I decided to send her an email. Basically it just said that I was offering an olive branch, in the hope we could be civil towards each other so that it doesn't make it awkward when we are both around other family members. That was 2 weeks ago and I haven't had a response. So yet again I have tried to reach out to her and had nothing back. I think it's time I give up trying as its clearly getting us nowhere. She is obviously not interested in any kind of relationship with me or my child, which does cause me heartache as I would love to have a relationship with my niece, the same for my sister with my child.

I'm going to have to stop there as I'm getting a little emotional.
