Hard to Understand
why a woman would go back to an abusive relationship. But with a friend like you, she'll always have someone to turn to.

jemz, sorry that you have caught something again, or that something
has climbed into your throat. Your blogs contain more colds and sniffles anad coughs and allergies than any others that I read !!!!
Vitamins, hija, vitamins....stay strong. I get no colds anymore and was living with them for years....taking better care of my GOOD health.
lAs for your friend and her return, she is on a bungie cord, no? Goes away and returns. They say that many women take over five times to really leave. Who knows? You can only push her towards her better life and self and pray like a mad woman that she survies to that final, final separation.
Hugging your sore throated self, abuelita

Kidnykid is right.
But don't let yourself get hurt, too.
I have to say (as someone formerly in an emotionally and mentally abusive marriage) it's easy to get so conditioned that you literally CANNOT see what is going on. You live in a world where this is just the color of the sky and the way the world turns. It's difficult to get out, and to heal.

I think youo're doing the right thing by sticking with your abused friend - I know it's rough to watch the abuse continue but at least she has someone in her corner.

Miso soup to the rescue !
I hope you feel better soon Jemms, if the miso soup doesn't help you could always hang by your feet and drain for a while ? 
The news of J going back to her husband is so very sad. She was away for so long, what made her go back? You're such a good friend to her to stick by her. I hope she finds the strength to finally leave that jerk once and for all.

It's so frustrating when you see someone hurting and you know that there isn't much you can do about it. I hope your friend discovers her self worth and leaves for good. I also hope that you get to feeling better before you start your new job.

Hope you get well soon
If you find a way to reach the person living in the abuse, contact me. I'm trying to help a lady, too.
God bless...
