Oh hey guys, remember me?
Actually not even sure if anyone reads this anymore but I've been wanting to type up a post for weeks and now I have access to internet on a PC I'm typing one whether anyone's reading or not.
So it's been a long time since I've posted and alot has changed, when I say alot I mean almost everything.
I think it was the 25th June...whatever the Thursday was, that's when it started.
That night I went to late night with Adam, like always. He broke up with me. First he acted all night as if everything was normal and whatever then just before 9PM when we both leave he broke up with me.
So I rang mom and told her what had happened and that I was staying over Racene's.
So yea, mom was adamant that I be home in the morning before 10AM and I had no idea why.
So I spent the night at Racene's and she kept me from crying too much and it was good.
The next day Racene's mom dropped me home around 9AM and my mom was still home when she should've been at work. I asked her why she was home and she said she wanted to be there incase I needed her so I said alright and told her I was having a shower, getting into pyjamas and going to bed because I was tired and she said that was fine.
When I got out of the shower and was drying off and getting dressed I could hear dad but I figured he must've forgotten something or whatever so I didn't think much of it. I left the bathroom and went into my bedroom and was brushing my hair when they ambushed me.
Dad was kind of just standing in the background and mom had this really mean look on her face and she goes "You're coming with us to the Department of Child Safety, you don't have a choice, you have to go, if you refuse we'll call the police and they'll make you go." Basically I was just like WTF because I was so tired and confused. I also asked mom if they'd be taking me home that day and she said yes.
As it turns out my mother is a mean bitch and a liar, she will also from now on be referred to as Donna. My father has turned out to be a total coward and will be referred to as Len.
They left me there, but not before Donna could tell them some lies about how I'm depressed and refuse to eat when in actual fact I'm happy as normal and haven't refused to eat since 2007. She also decided to burst into tears and go on about how "this isn't fair".
Forgive me for seeming heartless towards the woman who gave me life but after she's lied to me several times and lied to the government about me and then decides to cry about how this isn't fair on her, well I run out of sympathy.
I wasn't even allowed home to pack my stuff because Donna wouldn't allow it. She did the worst job possible when packing, she packed me minimal clothes all of which either didn't fit or I never wore and she decided to go through my stuff and steal my good gold rings which are worth thousands$$$ and all the money from my wallet.
I was stuck at Department of Child Safety (DOCS) from 10AM - 5PM. There is nothing to do there except sit and wait. They had a tonne of trouble finding somewhere for me to go. Eventually this place called Lifestyle Solutions said they could take me.
Lifestyle Solutions is like a foster home, there were 3 other kids there and there were several carers who did shifts. The other kids there were Sheena (15), Sara-Jane (15) and Terri (17). The house was in Bargara. Bargara is one of the beachy areas of the town I live in. Everyone seemed nice enough.
The next day, Saturday I had to go to the hospital to see a doctor because of the lies Donna had told. First thing they did was weigh and measure me, I was 43kg. That means I was so underweight that I was starting to die. So I was admitted straight away.
I was in hospital for a week, that's how long it took them to figure out that I'm not depressed and I don't have a problem with eating, I just don't gain weight for some unknown reason. The hospital couldn't be bothered figuring out the reason so they let me leave.
Whilst I was in hospital Bianca contacted me and we became friends again and she visited me a fair bit in hospital and she brought me pizza and the such. Racene also visited me a few times.
I was meant to be going back to my parents house when I got out of hospital but Donna still didn't want me so I went back to Lifestyle Solutions.
I went out to the park with Bianca once and we ate cake. I stayed over Racene's and we went shopping. Len was admitted to hospital and I went to visit him even though he never visited me, he's much better to be around when Donna isn't there. Riley came to town and we went and saw the Harry Potter movie. I went out with Todd a few times but as it turns out I'm only good for hookups not relationships. I rang my brother and he was really nice.
The kids also threw alot of tantrums. Terri punched three holes in his wall during the time I was there. Sheena and Sara-Jane nearly killed eachother in a fight over a boy. Sara-Jane went over to her friends house, got drunk, got high, took a number of illegal drugs and went missing for 24 hours.
Those are the highlights from Lifestyle Solutions.
On the Thursday just gone DOCS rang me up and told me they were moving me to a more family type place.
So over the weekend I packed.
On Monday I started TAFE, I'm doing a retail course. After TAFE someone from DOCS picked me up and drove me to the building where I waited until 4:30PM to be picked up.
I now have a new family, there's Lois but I call her mom, Peter but I call him dad and Maddi she's 15 turning 16 and she's now my sister. I live out at Moore Park, there's absolutely no phone reception but I have access to the internet and a PC. Everyone's so nice.
Tuesday I had TAFE and then mom picked me up at 12PM because I had a physio appointment.
My left knee dislocated the other week due to lack of muscle, I now have to have it bandaged because it's still extremely swollen and sore. I have another appointment Friday to check how it's going.
I then went back to TAFE and when that finished I walked to Hinkler because I had to change the details on my Medicare card.
I then had a doctors appointment, my blood test results came back, I have a deficiency in almost everything and now have to be on several supplements.
I rang my brother again that night, he misses me and wants to see me so I'm gonna try and organise that.
Today (Wednesday) I had to sit in the sun to get some Vitamin D, mom wouldn't let me do anything because I'm meant to be resting my knee.
I also had counselling, I only have to go every 2nd week because I don't have any issues.
I now also live near Cameron, one of my friends from North School, I think I'm seeing him this weekend maybe.
It's a little weird living here because it's like having a family again but it's also nice and loving and caring, I'm not used to that with a family.
Everyone who meets Donna thinks she's so nice because of the act she puts on for them but towards her own family she is cruel.
I miss Roxsas alot.
Sorry I haven't been able to comment or anything, I've been without internet until now.
I'm not sure how often I'll be able to post.
I also have a feeling I've set this up so that some people get emails, I'm not sure.
Some comments would be nice, I hope you're all okay xxo

God...Christine, I'm so sorry. It seems all so out of the blue...It's stupid how this has been thrown on you and it's not your fault. I'm glad you're in a better place now, even if you're missing Roxsas
<3
Man that stinks. Not fair at all! Like Ni said, it's stupid how it all got thrown on you. But I'm sure thing will get better, they have to!
Take care and have a nice day :)!

Oh I forgot something:
And Donna, may I call her that (?), is mean (I'm sorry)! How can she do that to you, she gave you life! Aren't parents suppossed to want better for their children?
It's absolutly not your fault. It's stupid. I'm glad you're in a better place now.

You've already told me most of this but it's so hard to read. I can't imagine what that's like. In truth, I'd like to smack Donna and Len. They seem like absolute terrible parents. Especially Donna.
I hate that all this happened to you, but I'm glad you're somewhere better now.
Sorry about Roxsas, too.

oh my god christine.
your poor thing darl. this is a really ridiculous situation, your "parents" (i was unsure how to refer to them as you don't think of them as your parents anymore) have no reason at all to do this.
it hurt to read that, it really did.
i hope you're feeling better now love.

Christine! awwh, of couse we remember you. I haven't stopped reading your blog because it keeps getting better each time!
I can't believe what happened :| That's too insane! Everything sort of collapsed all on top of you, I don't find it fair. But you have no idea how happy I am to hear that you're doing well with your new family (:
That's the most important thing for you!
Keep that smile on your face my aussie blog buddy! You deserve the best.
Best Wishes! xox, Vanessa. <3
