  • don't know what to do.....

    Friday, December 5, 2008

    Hi, I am so I don't know how to put it in words.  I don't know what to expect or what to do  about this fibro and lupus diagnose.  I feel so bad because my boys are finally at the age where I can really do things with them and half the time I don't feel good.  I don't know I guess I just need to learn to live with this awful stuff.  Thanks for reading.&nbs...

    Sunday, February 1, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I have asked for prayers many times on this board to the point I am sure you are all tired of this and frankly so I am. I am very tired of health issues and life issues. I am having surgery (small minor no big deal) on February the 12. I am not really asking prayer for the surgery. What I am asking prayer for is me. I have never been afraid about my health I have always viewed as one more mountai...

    Friday, January 2, 2009 | A Sad story

    MY UNCLE HAS BEEN IN CRITICAL CONDITION FOR MORE THAN A WEEK.  TODAY DOCTORS DIDN'T THINK HE WOULD MAKE THE NIGHT.  I JUST GOT A  PHONE CALL A FEW MINUTES AGO FROM MY AUNT SAYING HE PASSED. I'M GOING TO MISS HIM VERY MUCH. BUT HE WAS SUFFERING AND I DON'T WISH THAT ON AMYONE SO I'M GLAD GOD CALLED HIM HOME AND NOW HE IS IN PEACE.

  • OPINIONS NEEDED S.T.A.T.!!!!!!!

    Monday, July 20, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I had sent this to a couple of people via PM, but the more I think about it, the more I would like some opinions on how to deal with this. I am about to jump ship before we have officially set sail.

  • Some things I will never understand.....

    Tuesday, July 28, 2009 | A Venting story

     
    I'm not even sure how to say what I need to say. I don't know that I can even really wrap my mind around what I need to let out to put the words on paper.
    When I made my last journal entry, I was really trying to stay positive about the outcome of all of us living together. I really was. I was putting my effort into THIS home and trying to get everyone settled as best I co...

  • Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

    Monday, October 13, 2008 | A Venting story

    ok..so here I sit feeling like absolute crap! I am so worried about what my future is holding I keep catching myself holding my breath. I cried so hard earlier, thought I was going to pass right out.
    I keep telling myself that God hasn't forgotten me. He's still here..hard to remember sometimes.
    We are still waiting on my mom's bonus..everyday they tell her tomorrow. It's so very ...

  • My son

    Wednesday, July 2, 2008 | A Painful story

    So, we saw Danny's consultant this morning.
    10 months on from Danny's brain haemorrhage, they have decided he is not going to improve any further (how dare they!).  And, no surprise to hear (budgetary constraints), they want us to decide where Danny is to go now.  Oh, and by the way, the catheter for his urine will probably kill him in about 5 years anyway but it is all abou...

  • Spinal Surgeon visit tomorrow.

    Tuesday, July 7, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I am afraid.  Yes I know that God does not give the spirit of fear but of sound mind.  I can quote you lots of verses.  The thing is I have too many bad memories.  Tomorrow I go to the spine surgeon to discuss the ct scan.  Last time I had surgery I was suppose to have someone spend the night with me.  My hubby had a gout attack and he went to the doctor and she sent...
