  • I was up all night and most of the morning waiting for the doc to call that was going to do the surgery on Nick's toe.  The nurses finally found out what time the surgery was scheduled for - 2:00 PM.  When I heard that earlier this morning I figured that they would call later and I could catch a nap.  When I was sleeping the anastesialogist called and I missed the call.  I...

    Thursday, June 11, 2009 | A Sad story

    My father is lying again today. He has been acting silly again and I asked him if he had anything to drink and he says no.
    So tonight I check out the places he usually keeps his stash and of course I find some newly purchased cans of beer hidden. I removed the cans of beer from his golf cart pocket and replaced them with soda pop and a bottle of water.  LOL he will be surprised when he is on...

  • It Hurts (words can trigger ED thoughts)

    Saturday, June 13, 2009 | A Sad story

    Somebody at the center asked me a rude question the other day about if my father carried extra weight like I do. He didn't mean to hurt me, and he is developmentally disabled ( In his 70's but emotionally/mentally he is like a child). But still, it was a serious trigger. I did let him know his question was rude, as did my friends who also heard the question.
    But since this incident, I am t...

    Saturday, July 11, 2009 | A Sad story

    I don't know what to do. I would like to try to do the diabetic diet again, as it worked for me when I was younger. But no that I am older I don't ...
