You have truly touched my life. Your mother touched my life also. I have been so enriched by knowing you. Even though we have never met in person. I feel close to you in spirit.
I don't know why things happen the way they do in this life. Neither do I understand everything. No one does.
"Who Knew" phrased everything in her post that I could not put into words myself. She is a gifted person.
I do wish that there was something I could do to take your pain away even if just for a short while. I too wish that I could hold you in my arms & wipe your tears away.
Thank you for being such a blessing to us here. I just wish I could do something for you to make your life easier.
Can you ask your girlfriend to make a post regarding you, if you should not feel well enough to do so. We love you very much here. So, its naturally that we (especially me) will be concerned how you are doing.
Please spare my son's life. Please reverse this illness. Give him a miracle. Strengthen his body each day. Add many years to his life. Give him longlife & Your salvation. Take away his pain & sorrow. Remove all plagues from his body. Comfort him & provide for all his needs. Amen.
My husband's back went out. He could barely stand up. He was in severe pain. For my husband to go to the doctor, he has to be in severe pain or half dead !!! LOL
I didn't know this is the anniversary date of your mom's. I pray that G-d will ease your pain.
You know us being females, we try to help everybody. Then other people use our 'compassion' for others against us. They manipulate us, make us feel guilty all for their own 'selfish desires'.
At some point, we have to protest & say "I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE".
Not trying to be mean, but the 'stress' from situations like this can kill us. And, do other people care if they 'kill us'. Heck no.
Its time to show some 'tough love'. Boo hoo hoo, if he finds it hard out there. This is the real world. I'm sure you did not want to have to go through 'hard times' either. I'm sure you may have wanted someone to pay 'all your expenses' in life. I'm sure you may not have wanted to have to be so 'responsible' either. Honey, I know I didn't !!!!
Guess what, I didn't have a choice. And, I bet you did not either. And, worse this guy is a MAN. He needs to 'grow up'. He is having a case of FAILURE TO LAUNCH. Did you see that movie?
The best thing you can do for him is to put him out & let the little birdie fly on his own. He will never learn anything in the comforts of home.
Many years ago, my mother had to do the same thing for my baby brother. Its was shortly after my father passed away. And, my baby brother was going to 'flex his muscles so to speak & do what he wanted to do'. Yes, it made my brother mad,etc. But, here is the deal. My brother is now a successful minister. He is smart. He is very talented. This would not have happened if mother did not give him a push (out the house) so he could LAUNCH.
And sweetie, do not let ANYONE put the guilt trip on you. Its the best for him, the best thing for your family.
Its time you started taking care of YOU. As mothers, as females we always take care of everyone BUT us. However, if you don't take care of you then who will.
If you need someone to talk too, feel free to PM me.
Sounds like Sunny does need another cat to play with.
If you want one,just look in the trash can.LOL;; okay,okay. You have to see the news to get that one. Or, youtube. Its the one where the lady in England put the neighbors cat in the trash.
Its easy to get busy & forget to eat. I did that today. However, no matter if I eat or don't eat- I manage to 'blow up' & be fat.
Hope you have a great night. Seems no one is here on aidpage tonight. Maybe, everyone else has a hot date !!!
Why should he have to stay at her house? She is disabled, so she is not able to 'nurse' him.
Why can't he go & stay with 'his own mother'?
Why can't he stay at his own place?
Just because someone has a hurt back does not mean they have to stay with parents. I know too many people with hurt backs, myself included. So, I know it can be done.
She also stated that his own mom gave him 6 months to get his act together. So, there is obviously alot more going on. Sounds like a little bit of lazy'itis'. But, this just my take from this and I could be wrong.
She stated that this situation is 'stressful' for her. And,since she's disabled she does not need the added stress.
It is so kind of you to be sympathetic to his cause. Please contact 'sadmom' & offer to let this step-son come live with you. I'm sure she will greatly appreciate your generosity.
Oh thats so sad. Its hard to lose a loved one no matter the age or the way. However, murder & suicide is worse on the family. We can deal with death better if we know that the L-rd took our loved one. But, the idea that a loved one dying at someone else's hands or even the deceased 'own' hands to hard to bear.
I pray that G-d comforts you.
I'll have to try the 'tap between the eyebrow'.
Try to have a peaceful night despite whats going on.
Sorry for the loss of your husband. Since you have so many kids (6 now & 1 on the way making 7),you should be able to get 7 checks from your husband's social security. If you are not receiving these,please apply.
Its ashame that your husband didn't have an insurance policy on him. I can't understand why people especially 'parents' don't take out a term policy of 'some' amount. Its quite reasonable to get one when one is young. I took out a policy on myself when I was 24 years old & didn't have any children at all. Oh well, everyone thinks different. I do wish people would think of their families more.
