  • Oh well I guess I thought I would get a little artistic with the journal entry.  That face looks like me on a good day.  Well I am hurting like the devil because last night I didn't get a deep sleep.  I was woken up several times this morning by my Mothers phone in the kitchen.  I noticed the difference because the previous 2 nights I got that deep sleep and woke up with h...

  • It's been along time

    Friday, June 27, 2008 | A Painful story

    Wow, it's been a while since I have written anything here. Time goes by so fast.  I am doing much better now. Somedays and moments are still hard for me. To say time heals is not an accurate statement but time does help you cope with your different life. I am fast approaching the one year anniversary of my mom's death and here lately I have been thinking of what we were all doing thi...

  • Almost one year ago

    Monday, July 21, 2008 | A Painful story

    Lately, I keep remembering what I was doing this time last year. My mom was suffering so much and it was so hard. It will be one year on August 25th. It would've been their 36th wedding anniversary. So much has happened since then. I am still taking an anti-depressant but am due to go to the doctor next month. I have more anxiety than I ever had in my life. I am a changed person. Little by li...

  • Sharp pains today because of the weather and lung infection!!

    Sunday, September 28, 2008 | A Painful story

    Well the pain is in my upper arms and shoulders worse than the last couple of days.  Maybe it's the weather because it's raining here today or maybe it just feels like hurting more than it did yesterday.  I have to hang in there until Wed. when I pick up the Permobile or else I will lose that.  I am busy betting rid of the gunk in my lungs and am doing everything I am ...

  • Tangie is sick because I didn't get refills on her medicine.

    Sunday, October 12, 2008 | A Painful story

    I am upset right now because Tangie is going down hill because I didn't get her medicines for her and I just started noticing the difference in the last couple of days.  She is very lethargic and verbal which means she is in pain.  I have the cab company coming to pick up a check plus the other stuff they need to go to the store and pick up her stuff.  We have a pet smart here ...

  • Here we go again

    Sunday, October 19, 2008 | A Painful story

    My mom has been dead for a year and I still struggle with it but still getting better. Now my dad is in the hospital and it's like having flashbacks. His condition is life theatening right now and it seems that I am the one who knows more about his situation than anyone else in the family. I was at the hospital yesterday and had to correct so many of his responses to people about his medical ...

  • I'm so sick right now I don't know what to do except sleep!!

    Saturday, November 1, 2008 | A Painful story

    Well I'm going to forget the two day in one journal because I don't remember what happened in those 2 days - guess it was exciting becaue right now I really don't care.  I'm going to try to do this journal so that you all don't wonder what happened to me the last couple of days.  Thursday I went to the Docs and they took a blood test at her office and then she told m...

  • Amost two Years

    Friday, August 21, 2009 | A Painful story

    Well August 25th will be two years since my mom died. I have been thinking about what I was doing this time two years ago. Little did I know two years ago that in a few days she would be gone. All the what if's and I should haves are flooding in and of course the tears are flowing again.  I believe this is all normal but it still hurts so much. I think one thing that I would've chang...
