[QUOTE="nlj, post: 619301, member: 17650"] Good morning everyone Managed to sleep for a few hours last night, so that's an improvement! It was our youngest's 10th birthday yesterday so we all went out for a family meal. That's often when it hits me worst of course, that we are all together but someone's missing. She's worrying about him too as there are storms and floods here and she knows he's living rough with nothing. She wanted me to go and find him so he could come for a meal with us. SO difficult trying to explain to a child in an appropriate way. My eldest daughter brought a newspaper report from 2 days ago about the settlement where he is squatting. It basically said that eco-warriors on this site had been given six months to evacuate by the local council or they would be forcibly evicted. It's the first I knew of this. I actually found out some more information as the reporter had more information than me about where they are living! I haven't had any cellphone contact with him for a fortnight now, so you can imagine my worry levels are pretty high, but I'm still trying to focus on myself and separate from it. Thinking of you all and hoping you have a peaceful week. [/QUOTE]
