I have decided to try and teach Laura to find, create and nurture within herself: joy, hope, trust and acceptance. I really do want to help her, and out of love – not out of obligation because she’s my mother. I am going to devise a curriculum and teach her this stuff like a university course, with exercises and assignments. I found an ideal text book called Coping with Stress by Robert Burns.
Today was so much better. We went to the hospital and had an easy run. Because of the holiday yesterday, there was hardly anyone there. Laura’s nose was checked and all is fine. The doctor also checked out my ear. I have a bad ear infection which has been causing enormous pressure and pain.
Now I am going away for the weekend to rest and recover and plan my course.
