She is from a town around tucson and has a boyfriend that lives there. I guess he will come up and visit. He was with her the other day and seems real nice. I am back at work now and feel ok. I get alittle tired but that is expected.I feel gratefull that I am alive and well. I have been getting my house cleaned and it is really nice. it is one less thing that I have to do. I have been watching cnn about the health care. I hope they do something soon. We had to resign up for our benifits at work and the ins went way up. I am hoping the public option will be good.

She used the "silent treatment" onme from the time I was little, as well as screaming at me and berating me. I would get a whipping everyday for years. She would grab anything handy and wail on me. My sister had to endure this treatment also. We both suffer from very low self esteem .
