its very hard to maintain medications specially im mostly depress because i have to make a living for them
most of times i didnt want them to know that im in pain...what makes me fight and not giving up is seeing them..

Not much use or help just now mate as I'm really unwell.
Keep on going for those lovely kids.
Easy to say I know but you're obviously a loving dad and know what I mean.
Getting depressed won't be helped if you're looking after them but not looking after you.
You need something for you.
Best regards Nino.
