Honestly...if I were to live to be 100 I would still not have an answer to that. My husband stays in the barn instead of in the house because the baby's whining bothers him. He loves it when all is peaceful and Brayden is being good. He has NO patience with sickness in anyone but himself. The son in laws have spent hours upon hours in the family room downstairs playing X-Box. They are down th...

SHELLEY IS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL...THEY STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER. THEY ASSUME IT'S AN INFECTION THAT ISN'T SHOWING UP ON THE TESTS, BUT ALOT OF THE TESTS AREN'T BACK YET. THE ONCOLOGIST SAYS SHE WILL HAVE TO STAY THERE UNTIL THEY HAVE SOMETHING DEFINITIVE. I SPENT THE AFTERNOON WITH HER TO KEEP HER SPIRITS UP. I HAVE BEEN GOING EVERY OTHER DAY BECAUSE OF THE DISTANC...1 Recommendation10 Comments

My dear friend went to heaven last night at 11:07 pm. It was peaceful. Her funeral will be Monday afternoon. I will be doing her hair and make-up on Sunday morning so please pray for me that I will be able to make her look like her family remembers her. My heart is sad,but I know Tressie is in heaven and all the pain and suffering for her is now over. Please remember her family in prayer this wee...1 Recommendation10 Comments

Not everyone will say who they supported in this election, but I have no problem with it. My heart is heavy this morning. As I watched John McCain give his concession speech last night, the tears flowed unchecked. John McCain is a GREAT AMERICAN. Regardless of how badly his campaign was managed, regardless of the fact that he has President Bush riding on his shoulder, John McCain gave it his all ...1 Recommendation9 Comments

HI FRIENDS...I MISS DS ALOT. I HAVE READ JOURNALS TONIGHT SO THAT I COULD CATCH UP A LITTLE. I AM ENJOYING MY GRANDSON SO MUCH. I LEAVE ON SUNDAY MORNING AND ALREADY I AM SAD. HE HAS GROWN AND CHANGED SO MUCH IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE HOW MUCH THEY CAN DO AT THIS AGE. HE TURNED 21 MONTHS LAST SATURDAY. IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY THAT I WAS ANXIOUSLY AWAITING HIS BIRTH. JUST ...1 Recommendation9 Comments

Well I don't have the flu but boy am I sick.
The baby that Cathy is carrying is dead. She hasn't started to lose it yet and may not. She has to see her OB at the first of the week and go from there. She is hoping that she doesn't have to have a D&C. Very very sad for her. She is on her way with the other kids to Chicago for the burial of her half brother. Here I am so sick I c...1 Recommendation9 Comments -
I AM SEEING RED AT THE MOMENT. A DEAR FRIEND ON DS HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY A BUNCH OF VIGILANTES WHO THINK THEY KNOW IT ALL. I AM LIVID!! I GUESS THIS IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD EXPECT ON SUCH A PUBLIC SITE AS DS, BUT IT STILL INFURIATES ME WHEN PEOPLE CAN'T MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS. WHAT IS WRITTEN IN YOUR OWN JOURNAL BELONGS TO YOU. I FEEL WE ARE FREE TO SAY WHATEVER WE WANT TO SAY. IF SOMEONE DOES...1 Recommendation8 Comments

The surgery is over. It's 8/pm and we just got home a little bit ago. Shelley isn't feeling well at all. This was very painful surgery for her. The surgeon said she was going to be very uncomfortable for a while. He made a larger than usual incision because she is a big girl. He had to go deep to find the nodes and when he found the one he was looking for it was HUGE. He said he didn'...1 Recommendation8 Comments

We went to the surgeon's office today. The pathology report was still not back, however, we did find out the reason for that. They have sent the report to the University of Michigan for a another opinion. The pathology dept in Kalamazoo seems to feel that there were invasive cancer cells in the tissue they removed. This was NOT what we expected. Now we are in limbo once again, waiting. The su...1 Recommendation8 Comments

i have never shared this thought/feeling with anyone. let me start by saying i know i'm immensley lucky to have survived and i am very thankful. but, sometimes i have an overwhelming feeling of being trapped. i get this feeling because i'm in a body that is almost entirely bereft of any real quality. this is going to sound narcissistic, but its true, my mind is sti...1 Recommendation8 Comments
