BIG OR LITTLE THEY SURE CAN GET ON YOUR NERVES. THE YOUNGEST ANSWERED THE PHONE WHEN FREDDY CALLED, AND IT WAS LEFT OFF THE HOOK FOR 20 MINUTES, THANK GOODNESS HE WAS ABLE TO CALL BACK. THEN THE BIG ONE WHERE YOU ALL KNOW HER AS MY KID, SHE LOVES TO BRING INTO ME ANGER AND TEARS, SHE WAS GOING OUT TO EAT I OFFERED HER MY BANK CARD TO GET ME SOMETHING TO EAT, SHE REFUSED TO TAKE IT, FREDDY HEARD EVERY THING AND TELLS ME TO CALM DOWN, HOW THE HECK CAN I CALM DOWN, I'M DIABETIC AND NEED TO EAT AND THE WITCH REFUSES TO BRING HOME FOOD.. I WISH I WAS HEALTHY SO I COULD MAYBE GO OUT ON MY OWN, THEN I DON'T HAVE ANY TRANSPORTATION. MY KID IS JUST IN A PATHETIC MOOD BECAUSE SHE CAN'T SEE HER LOVER BOY IN PRISON, AND YES I'M BEING SARCASTIC I'M ANGRY, OH I WANT TO TELL HER MAN SO BAD HERE AT HOME HOW SHE HAS BEEN PLAYING BEHIND HIS BACK WITH HER PRISON LOVER,,,UGGGGGGGGGGGGG! THANKS FOR LETING ME VENT.

I am so sorry you are having such a hard time with her. I can surely see how you would be upset with her. But you getting in a snit with her can't be good for your health. It hasn't been that long since you got out of the hospital, Lynn.

You have to take care of yourself. Part of that is keeping your temper. Maybe that is your dear Freddy's point. Stewing over her is not going to help the situation.

Because you are at their mercy with your health. It is an idea to try hard to see their good points. Try to not dwell on the bad points for they become larger and more noticeable if dwelling on them. Try to dwell on their good points. So that when you look at them that is what you think of not the negative.

Whatever you look for you will find. This is just a coping technique I use when around some that are difficult people to be around. I will not say who. LOL!

I truely hope your situation improves but if not try to help the situation by letting positive thinking to overcome the bad. For your health. Mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

Protect your mind from all the negative so your health does not suffer anymore.

Love you Lynn. Praying for you.

Love Rhea

Have you tried meals on wheels, or the SSI transportaion. Take advantage of all the resources you can. You paid into them, might as well get some back when you need it.

You shouldn't stay with her Lynn. Not getting food for you when you need it is abuse especially where you're a diabetic. I so wish you were here with me my good friend. I would do my best to care for your needs. I can't understand your daughter anymore than I can understand my own now. But, listen, I know you have an aide. Can she pick you up some groceries? You've got to eat. What about delivery. I don't know about your area, but our local grocery store delivers at no extra charge to elderly or disabled people who have no transportation. Is that an option there? Don't give up. I know there's a solution if we can just find it. Love you, Lorie Ann
