in some ways they are, in some ways they aren't.
as a result of all this she became a nurse in a home for old people. she used to love the job until they shortened staff so much that it only became a stressful and accident-prone routine.
now it's just tiring and exhausting and frustrating to her.

Running away to another country is always such a hard test, but if the situation is complicated....But I'm glad everything is OK.

thank you, yes it is very much so. it doesn't help when there's a lot of hate involved in the new country, but yeah, we went through it and live to tell the tale. :)

When you survive in such situations it means that you're a strong person, ehh!

it's also a constant reminder of what you've achieved... so if you feel down you can think *damnit, I've made it through this, so what's the matter?*

I hadn't known until just recently about how hard your mum had it when you came to Switzerland, and just how badly she was treated when it came to getting a good job. :-( I'm so sorry this was how she, and you, were both treated in your new country - that is just plain wrong and hateful. I am glad they've changed that rule, but the scars must still be there and that is difficult when the memories come up :-(. One day I wish for you that you move to a place where the opposite happens: where you will feel welcome, and treated with the kindness and respect that you so very much deserve! ***hugs!***

It must have been so hard for you both leaving everything and everybody behind :(((((

it was like a brandnew start, but some things went lost during it all... and the connections to our family in the Czech Rep. suffered. We've never been *really* close again.
:(

ah, hmh, dunno much by them :p

I would change one main thing and that was to learn and become a good parent by understanding their emotions more. All that I went through myself did create me. But next time I definitely want my life to be much better.

I never knew that Switzerland people would have been like that. You would never know until you live there. My heart aches for both of you, for all the pain. My heart is with you now and wish you both the best, huge hugs to you and mum.

aw *hugs* :o

Thank you so much *hugs again*
Alone to know that some people understand means a lot to me.
I've encountered way enough who went like *ah well, can't have been that bad*. yeah, right.
