My crappy month Mood
Sunday, July 5, 2009 | A Call For Help story
It seems like everything is hitting me at once. I went to my pain management dr and cried for almost my entire appt. I dont think my paxil is working. It just seems like one thing after another. The pm dr explained its a viscious?sp cycle. Depression makes the pain worse and pain makes the depression worse. He changed some of my meds which im hoping will help. He also asked me if I was receiving counseling from my minister and I told him I have. My medical bills and medicine costs has us so in debt. We struggle every month and run into the next months bill money covering the months before bills. And to make it worse and please dont think Im nuts. I think the first step to getting better is laying it all out on the table.
I often have prophetic dreams and see and hear things others arent able. No its not mental things but more paranormal. When my bio mom passed away I dreamt the whole thing the night before down to making the 911 call as well as doing cpr. My grandfather same thing and then the night after the funeral I dreamt of him where we met in the most beautiful meadow. There was concrete benches green grass and he was walking told me not to be sad he could walk. Well the last few months I have been having dreams of my ma. I talked to my sister today too and she has been having almost the same exact dreams.

I keep dreaming my ma doesnt know she is dead. And it occurs in dreams she doesnt really fit into kwim? Like one of them I was at the kids school and it was a program the kids were performing for the parents. Well she never attended these things. She kept saying help me I need your help. Why cant they see me. and I told her dont you know your gone ma you past away in feb and she starts to tell me something and I wake up before she is able to. I have had several dreams like this. My sister has too. Only hers are more along the lines of video games most times. Like she had to collect all the coins to move on to the next level and then ma would be the boss she had to defeat. Its gotten to the point I dont want to go to sleep because of the nightmare dreams that come with it. So I stay up till 2-3am, and wake up between 6-7 with the kids. Im sure the lack of sleep doesnt help either.

I have just had a very hard time coping with everything. The losses, the fire, fighting the insurance company, behind on our mortgage, my disability hearing, the trampoline, the leukemia scare. I mean this year has been such a trying year for our family. And I really hope and pray it gets much better for us. Because honestly I do not think I could make it through another loss or stressful event this year.

And please please dont think badly of me but the last week it got so bad and I was in horrid pain. Hurt to walk, hurt to move I was in tears and close to asking sam to take me to the er. My meds werent helping at all. Sam had to cut my meat up for me because I didnt have feeling in the last 3 fingers of my hands, and just the pressure needed to move the knife back and forth hurt more than anything. I was devistated and felt awful even asking him to do that. It took me breaking down to get to that point. He noticed I was eating my cube steak he cooked and said whats wrong you just not hungry and I started crying. I dont think he knew how to take it to be honest. He told me he didnt care if I needed help just to ask. I told him I was so angry with my body, and lupron that I was to the point if it wasnt for our kids and him I wanted to die. I feel like a burden to him and the kids. I would never hurt myself ut the thought has crossed my mind. Always being the sick mom. always in pain, always saying Im sorry I cant do that or let me take my meds so I can move first. Sam got upset that I would even say anything like that but like I told him atleast I would be free of pain and no longer suffering, no longer using all our money for dr appts and meds and everything would be paid for. The house, car, etc. Then we wouldnt be behind on the house, we wouldnt have to worry what bill to put off to pay this. Atleast now we have lowered all of our bills which saves us appox 250.00 The dr also changed 3 of my meds to generic and are on the walmart 4.00 list. Im hoping that changing my muscle relaxer and paxil to celexa it will help alot. Im not expecting a miracle but maybe it will work better than the ones ive been taking.

Noone in my family takes my conditions seriously and tell me oh your just exagggerating. but when you wake up and cant bear weight on your legs and fall to the ground i really dont think its exaggerating. I have lost most of my friends irl because Im not able to go and do the things I use to do. My supposed best friend Jennifer wont even take my calls or return my texts or calls because I couldnt come drink coffee one day. I mean jeez. I know its hard to make plans because I never know how im gonna feel. If Sam is here to drive me its easier to go places because I dont have to drive I can take my meds and just ride while he drives. I cant even reach my arms behind my back to fasten my bra because it hurts to bad. So thank goodness for sports bras that fasten in the front or just slide over your head. She also got mad at me because I made the comment everyday is a good day to die. And I honestly feel that way. I am looking forward to being free of pain again. To be able to do things without requiring help. While I pray that my kids are grown before something happens to me I am basically counting down the days so to speak. What a blessing that would be to wake up and be pain free.

Update on my beautiful baby girl Mood
Tuesday, June 23, 2009 | A Breaking News story
On the way to the ped for another cbc she broke out in a weird virus . Her blood work showed her wbc to be 4.9 which according to the ped the virus proves it was a virus and not leukemia but she wants to do another cbc next monday just to make sure her levels are staying up and not falling again. Thank you GOD. Ive never been so glad to see a rash in all my life. The last week has been crazy with worry and stress. Im so glad it is over and we finally have some good news for once.

I cant take anymore Mood
Monday, June 15, 2009 | A Call For Help story
We are still waiting to hear back from the dr. This wait is killing me. Im telling you I am way past my breaking point and I just dont know how much more I can deal with this year. I dont know what I did to deserve this life. I know that sounds silly but my gosh this year alone has been one heartache after another. I mean come on. I lost my uterus because of my stupid endo and health issues, A blow out, losing my ma, my grandma, my house catching fire, sam losing his night job, fighting the insurance company, and to top it off i made a major mistake in the bank account somewhere along the line. Sam got paid friday and according to the bank we only have 9.15 in there. according to my checkbook we should have 368.00 We live off of 346.00 a week we dont qualify for food stamps or any assistance. I cant work due to my medical issues and now its a possibility my beautiful baby girl could have leukemia. She has been thru pure hell ever since she was born. She was born 8 weeks premature we were told by the drs to let her die she would be nothing but a burden and I have fought to keep her alive. Im not about to stop now. She is my life, my livelyhood. She means the world to me and I would NEVER EVER give up on her. She has had more surgeries and hospitalizations than birthdays and yet she keeps being put thru hell. She has had her tonsils and adenoids removed, 8 sets of ear tubes, open heart surgery at 26 mths, autism, a stroke losing all her speech, as well as having right sided weekness. Hospitalized for 10 days for rsv, fought the dr's about her needing a trach only to find out that it was only reflux and a trach would never have helped her to begin with.
we are still waiting on the damn mortgage company to send the check back.

And if I hear one more well meant comment about
God never gives you more than you can handle
or
this is the devils way of testing your faith
or
you need to pray harder
or
God got your attention this time didnt he?
I am going to go balistic. I cannot believe this person thought that losing everything and going thru what our family has in the last year was Gods way of getting my attention. Because that blows my faith and beliefs out the window. I didnt know a God that is suppose to be so loving can be vindictive. ya know what I mean?
My faith is slowly going out the window. I understand everyone here has trials and tribulations to face but jeez I have been thru hell my entire life and I dont understand why I have to keep having bad stuff happen. Im terrified about my hearing. I am so afraid of another denial. Im afraid of waiting almost 2 years just to be told denial again. My lawyer seems to think I have a very strong case but I am so afraid he could be wrong. And Im scared to death of losing my beautiful baby girl and her having to be put thru pure hell again.

If you dont hear from me for awhile its because our internet was shut off. Im hoping that I can get the check from the mortgage company soon so that I can get our house fixed and have some to play catch up on the bills with.
I can access the internet and facebook and myspace from my phone but not the board due to all the graphics and ads. As it isnt a crackberry. Its just a simple motorola.

Sorry to vent and go on and on. I didnt want to post or bring anyone down just need to vent and get it out.

    I don't know what to say. I believe in God but I don't understand why things happen. I agree with you that all those lines people say are alot of crap. Bad things happen because bad things happen God has nothing to do with it. I had to deal with a house fire and insurance company and that alone can do you in. We lived in a hotel for 6months. Sending Hugs and Prayers that your daughters health and your health improve. also sending Prayers that your financial situation improves and all goes well with your hearing. When you need to vent we are here for you. Hugs
