I finally heard from Stephen, today at 12:15, he had till 1pm then i was calling the emergency line and have them track him down, didn't know if he lost his phone and was afraid to tell us or what, well battery was dead then no service..... While i was trying to nicely let him know HE ALMOST PUT ME IN THE NUTHOUSE WORRYING, HE KNOWS HOW BAD I WORRY........and he kept saying yea but, ok but,.....I finally listened to what he was trying to tell me THEY ARE GOING THRU OUR TOWN ON THE WAY BACK RIGHT NOW AND IF I WANT I CAN MEET HIM AT SONIC AS THEY ARE STOPPING HERE TO EAT!!!!! I got to hug and touch him and yes look him over for any sign of harm, he's ok!, and probably a little embarassed as the whole bus of kids were there too, oh well-should've called me. My 3 yr old niece stayed with us last nite and her and David slept in spare room all nite!, and slept til about 9am. I have to ask, does anyone else have such insencitive in-laws or his it just me. Day before yesterday my sis-in-law and 2 of the 3 older kids of my bro-in-law(by first wife) sat out on the porch with me discussing how some boy missed a curve, had 3 (i think)girls with him and they were all ok, now i feel this is bad enough cause all i am thinking is why couldn't my baby have been alright when she missed her curve, then they continue to talk about how this boy should have gotten hurt, maybe he would have learned a lesson. Now i don't know this boy or anything about him but does any child deserve to be hurt?, I had to get up and walk away. Today when sis-in-law came to pick up my neice she was asking if we had heard from Stephen, no and shiould have heard by now if something happened, almost before i get that out she says-get this-Did you hear about the kid that got beheaded at six flags in(some other town than Stephen was in), he was reaching out of ride for something and was decapitated!!!!WHO TELLS SOMEONE IN MY GRIEF STRICKEN, WORRIED SOMETHING HAPPENED TO STEPHEN, STATE? I said i really didn't want to hear that she says but it was in a different town than Stephen was in. So for the last couple hours waiting on Stephen to call i had this image of some boy being decapitated on possibly the same kind of ride Stephen has ridden. Am i overly sensitive or are they, well stupid is the word that comes to mind. Anyway still having hard time, and hubby and buddy have decided we are having a cookout, a ham on the grill, that'll take forever to cook, so finally get a day without the in-laws and now i have to put up with his buddy(can be asshole or nice, ya never know) and his wife who i had nothing in common with before let alone now. The last time they come over for cookout she invited her own company to come, so they're supposed to be here in 5 min guess i better get off here and wait to see how many people are gonna be here. Luv to ya all ,will try to catch up on journals tommorrow.

Ummm....your sister-in-law seems very insensitlve...she definitely is more insensitive then any one of my sister-in-laws. I am SOOO glad you got to touch Stephen! I would have done the exact same thing!!! Go girl! Hope you have a good week...love to you...Karen
Yes- stupid. People are insensitive and stupid and they don\'t think. I am sorry that you had to go through that. Two weeks after Tara\'s accident my sister-in-law had the idiocy to ask my husband about selling her a SUV we own that she wanted to buy for my nephew who is getting his driver\'s license. Making conversation I asked why they weren\'t considering a more gas efficient car- and she said \"Oh, I wouldn\'t put MY boys in a little car- they\'re so dangerous.\" Stupid, stupid, stupid. Wishing you the best and hoping that you get a little relief from the world.
Im sorry about your sister in law. Unfortuneatly, pepole dont think about the impact of what they say, they open their mouths and rubbish falls out. Only thing is, they will never understand or even comprehend for 1 nano second what you are going through, because their world is untouched and still smells of roses. Dont be too hard on her, to understand you have to have knowledge and to have the knowledge you have to experience. Hugs xx I understand xx
WOW!! No my sister in law at times can be so nice and other times............
you no what they say if you dont have anything nice to say SHUT UP!!!!
Hppy Stephen is ok
love ya
