DancingDays Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Best wishes for a speedy recovery for both you and your DD - I can't imagine how rough it must be but your DD sounds as though she has remarkable tenacity and such a positive mental attitude that good things must surely come her way soon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anjuli_Bai Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 A speedy and complete recovery! Making one's own clothes can be fascinating - designing them, too. Both an art and a skill. I used to do that many years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa O`Brien Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 C4D,I`m so so sorry to hear this. How much more can you all take? But my goodness she sounds so strong and resilient. I don`t know if I would have been as tough as your daughter has been. That inner resilience will stand her in good stead for the rest of her life,so probably whatever task she turns to ,i can imagine her sheer determination will allow her to succeed. Virtual hugs to you both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thecatsmother Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I have taken to buying crystal buttons online etc and dressing up cardigans etc. It can be simple but quite fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Sorry to hear you're both injured. I think there is a market for dance costume making if you can combine your dressmaking talents and knowledge of what works in a costume. Get better soon x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amum/Cathy Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 So sorry to hear about the injuries C4D. Hope you both recover quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legseleven Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I am so sorry to hear your news, charlie4dancin. Is there any possibility that your DD can recover in time for at least one or two of her exams (3 in one month! Wow, that's some going in itself!) - if vocational, could the date be put back within the examining session or a later session considered? She is clearly such a positive, determined girl that I am sure that she will succeed in whatever she chooses to do. Sending you both hugs (and prescribing chocolate!) x 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeliB Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 oh dear what a blow. they shd put an extra category into the dance exam marking schedule: 'how much adversity I have faced to get here'. Your DD would cruise it! Hope you both recover speedily... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie4dancin Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Well dd has turned 13 today she is feeling good and off the meds and seems to have recovered well from recent injury... After nearly 2 uncertain years she is looking forward and thinking positively about what she wants and needs to do to achieve her long term goals at 16/17/18 who knows?!? For me I just want her happy and more importantly healthy!!! For all the lovely ladies who offered and sent dd crafty/creative projects we have bought her a sewing machine for her birthday as she loves textiles and she dreams of making her own tutu ONE DAY haha!! 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarahw Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 That is fab news- you and dd deserve a happy and injury/illness free decade or two. All the best for the future. My dc is currently recovering from a stress fracture which hopefully is a relatively short recovery period (fingers crossed. ) How you have got through what you've been through I do not know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very proud of her determination to keep dancing not sure what's going to happen but she seems to really enjoy the contemporary/creative side of dancing... Just goes to show you never know what's round the corner!!!! ;) 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 That's great news. My daughter does a CAT program in ballet and contemporary and she loves every minute. It's a great way of getting vocational training whilst staying at home and they get so many opportunities and chances to perform. She will love it. X I believe in everything happens for a reason.
