Missing my mom Mood
Thursday, September 18, 2008

Today is my Birthday and I know hubby will make it special. He already got me a set of Reebok speed weights and the  heart monitor I wanted. I really don't expect anything else but I know him well enough to know there will be more. (very sweet man)

 

Anyway, I got 2 cards from my mom...one sweet and thoughtful and the other hilarious. My parents live in Chicago and I have not seen my mom in a year and my dad in almost 2. My mom and I were mortal enemies when I was a kid but we have reconciled this and now I miss her terribly. We talk for hours almost every week and send Emails constantly,  but the cards hit me hard and I started crying uncontrollably during my walk this morning.

 

I think this may be in part because my kidneys are hurting again and I'm scared. The last time this happened and I went in for testing the Doc threatened dialysis if I didn't fix it. I began drinking water like a fool and really began to work on my health. Now what? I am doing everything and they are hurting again. This may sound stupid but I want my Momma!

    Happy Birthday Happy! Missing/ wanting your Mom when you feel bad doesn't sound stupid. I often feel the same way. Mostly because...as sweet as my husband is...and as much as my kids love me...none of them are really great at care taking. I am the care taker in my home so when I am down who is going to care for me? I think it's natural. I hope your kidneys don't give you too much pain or that you will need dialysis...I'll be sending you positive energy!
