  • a day in the life............

    Friday, March 14, 2008 | A Tragic story

          I spent the better part of the day today sitting in a courtroom.
    Since I love to "people-watch", I looked around the room and saw that many of the faces had a look of defiance. I could definitely tell who would stand up there and say  "it wasn't me", "I'm innocent", or "it's not as it appears".
    There were the fa...

  • Today

    Saturday, September 27, 2008 | A Tragic story

    Today the love of my life and my soulmate left this earth. I feel like I am dying. I feel like this is some horrendous horrible nighmare that I can't awaken from. I feel like it not real, that he is still here, but I know he is not. I feel like I am shutting down and its terrifying. I do not want to be in this nightmare.

  • I found Tember

    Wednesday, November 12, 2008 | A Tragic story

    I found Tember as if he were sleeping.  He had Died sometime between yesterday about 9 am and today.  I think he had been gone since yesterday.
    Not a mark on him.  Possibly he just had too many things wrong that we could not see.
    He will be missed.  He will be my last cat.  I had Trucker for 18 years.  ...
    I love all of you and though to some this is a small thing...fo...

    Friday, February 13, 2009 | A Tragic story

    I was with my boyfriend for 17 years. He has been ill for the last 2. We were never married. He died on 1/5/09 and I feel as if my life has ended with his. It does not help that he left no will. His family has taken everything that we have built together away from me. They left me no time to really grieve. My heart is broken and I miss him terribly. I found his body after being at work for 3 hour...

    We have lost one of our friends, Jacs56 has left to cross her "Rainbow Bridge" to meet Danny Boy, one of her dogs. You can see their picture in her photos. To her husband who stood buy her side my heart and prayers go out to him. Being a caregiver to a terminal patient is a job only for the stongest, most loving people in the world. As I slowly get sicker i am surrounded with caring lov...

  • Mortality and Life

    Monday, June 8, 2009 | A Tragic story

    These words have been heavily plagiarized from an article on the web, though extensively edited by myself. The words seem to sum up a lot of the thoughts and feelings we go through. These words could have come from my own mouth and I wish they had.
    Mortality and Life 
    There is no denying the psychological effect on a person when they are diagnosed with a terminal disease such as cirr...

    This day set out at 6am be at the lab by 7:30, breakfast at eh hospital appt. with the transplant dr at 10.
