I just feel like writing a little, its the month of November, not usually a good month for me throughout the years, always some thing bad happens, and this year its happening once again. My daughter found out she was pregnant, only about 2 or so weeks, said she was going to name the baby after my husband if it was a boy, she had a misscarraige today.

It gets worse kind of, recieved a call last night from my husband, he is diabetic ammoung has other numereous illnesses, he tells me they cut his toe nails, and the one toe turned black, I am so affraid he may get gangarene, and it may spread. I don't want to lose him in prison. And we all know how prison health care is.

This bad luck in November all started back in 1994 when my mom passed on black friday after being in the hospital for 3 and a half months. I dispise November, and all the bad luck it has for me every darn year.Thanks for listening.

I am so so sorry that life is dealing you such a series of bad hands. I will keep you and your family in prayer. There are times when we have to look up to a higher power than us to help us to get by. This too shall pass and a brighter day of healing and hope will come. Untill then hang in there and know you are not alone and I will help how ever I can.

Hi Lynne, I am sorry for your pain. I know you must be worried and I will pray that your husband gets the healthcare that he needs. I always think it is wise for the family to call the prison and let them know of their concerns. This way they KNOW that we know what is going on, and sometimes that may prompt better attention to the inmate who otherwise may get ignored or put aside when serious attention is needed. Just my personal thoughts.
We are here for you!!!
I hope things look up soon.

Thank you all for youe moral support. True November will pass, but then comes December, not much better. I can't wait untill the holidays are over with. My daighter right now is laying in the hospital,after effects of the misscarraige, and my husband if I call up there, I know him he will become angry, I'm just hoping he will call if it gets worse.
