I always take my coloring when I have to wait. The women talking remind me of kids in school. Sometimes kids or bullies never grow up.

Dear sweet, Kate.  Don’t ever apologize for sharing your life with us, whether positive or negative.  Things can’t always be all uplifting things.  Life isn’t like that.  Just know we’re here for you no matter what.  I sure do hope you feel better soon.  Hugs.

I’m so so sorry for how you were treated. I know how vulnerable anxiety can make you feel, and then to have people treating you like that on top of it. Good job sticking it out and getting the testing you needed.
I need to go in for some medical things soon and I’m petrified, but hearing how you persevered has made me feel a bit better, so thank you 😊

So sorry to hear you are feeling so poorly and the way you were treated at the emergency room is unacceptable.   I'm glad that you have Aaron in your life  knowing you don't have face what you are going through is a blessing.  Love the color choices you are using this picture is really turning out nice.  Hope you feel better soon and if I could I would give you a big hug.  Take care

I feel for you Kate, it bought a tear to my eye when you was talking about getting into the taxi for the hospital and Aaron couldn't go with you, I am like that too when I take my hubby to the hospital for his chemotherapy and I have to leave him at the hospital doors, so sad ... and as for those women that was awful, be strong Kate and you will get through it all xx

I’m sorry you felt so bad at the hospital. I feel so angry at others who mutter under their breath at others :(  I also am catching up on videos from home schooling and I’m so glad we were colouring the same page today :) love the sound of the hedwig book, I’m currently curled up in my Gryffindor blanket. Would love to see more Ivy colouring as it’s one I’m working in but truly I love watching you colour anything x

Hello Kate, 1st thank you for coming on and spending time with US too. You are great company and talking about real life things, I believe, is important so people do realize they are NOT alone in their struggles. I'm soo sorry to hear of the medical issues which then enhance our mental issues that you are dealing with, sending lots of good healing energy and love your way. As for your bad experiences at the Doctors office, Horrible of the staff person as well as the other patients. I'm the 1 with the mouth, I tell staff when they are "Unprofessional" and others "Mind your own Business" My 1st thought was " She is a Celebrity (lol) how dare they". Stay strong my friend. xx    btw great start , love the plant colors a lot

Omg Kate as if you didn’t already have enough pain with your arthritis!  I hope the medicine helps quickly sweetie!  Pain alone causes depression but being anemic doesn’t help!  I’m so thankful you have him to lean on!  We all need someone!  I’m really enjoying watching you color in this book!  Take care sweetie! 🤗❤️😘

Sweetie, wonderful coloring, as usual. Great to hear from you. Take care my love.

Been lovely spending some quiet time with you.

I do appreciate that not every day can be a bright one.  I am glad you feel you can share the low times with us too.  It does help us all because we can relate and support yourself and each other.

You had an exhausting and scary experience.  I'm proud you worked your way through it, when you could have just gone home.

You are the same as me giving, or not giving blood lol   The pain of it makes me nauseous.  When that one person hits it first time, it's such a relief.  I glad the GP spotted you need a fresh pair of hands to do it.

I'm sorry you've received diagnosis "labels".  I hate labels but they are a starting point to work from.

I know you suffer a lot and life does seem unfair to me.  As families, we adapt and support and get through each day.

I hope the medications help and you are more gentle and kind to yourself

Anaemia can cause fatigue, so rest if you need to.  My way of fighting fatigue by ignoring it doesn't help in the slightest.  I have to listen to my pain and my body more.  I'm a bit stubborn lol

Can't believe other people have nothing better to do than judge and gossip.  Colouring is your coping mechanism.   Grrrrr that would have upset me too.

Sending you a warm soft chartreuse coloured hug and may you start to feel more comfortable and uplifted.

You already know colouring is our medicine.  There's no dose to exceed either so ...

Take care, Kate.  We truly do understand  xxx

So sorry you have been in pain and sorry about the unkind people in the hospital waiting room. I personally don’t take my colouring elsewhere because I feel some people will have a judgement or two to make and it would upset me too. Take care and look after yourself x

Aw I’m sorry you’ve been having such a time Kate. If I were with you in that hospital I would have told those people where they could shove their opinions! Such ignorance, I’m sorry they made you feel bad but you keep being your amazing self! I am glad that you are feeling like coloring though! It is great to hear from you! Take care my friend! ☺️💜

Just started catching up and I’m on the same page :)

Your page is turning out lovely. So sorry your health is not well. As to eating mushy food. I had to do that once for 3mos and eventually you get used to it and you lose a few pounds as well :-)

Hi Kate I haven't usually written anything before, but I'm kinda new to your Channel. I have arthritis also an a bunch of other stuff. I'm not anemic that seems very difficult. You are in my thoughts and prayers 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏. Love your work in Ivy and the Inky Butterfly 🦋!! I'm Coloring tha book also. I'm hoping to complete it this year??🤪🤪🤪 Yes I'm crazy LoL 🤣🤣🤣 I didn't get the book till February 12th. So I'm working with 10 1/2 months available for me to complete the book.

My husband is suffering from the same thing and his surgery is March 9th as nothing else has helped yet. Feel better
