I just wanted to say how sorry I am to all those ladies whom I promised items to and didn't finish through with. I have had a very crazy last few months. To begin with my seven year old daughter got very sick one night so I took her to the e.r. They sent her home saying it was a viral infection. They gave her a prescription that is for patients doing chemo-therapy for the nausea. The pharmacy said my insurance wouldn't cover it and they refused to sell it to me. So we went home hoping the antibiotic would work and this would run it's course. The next day we ended up back in the e.r. This time I made them do more tests and come to find out she had pneumonia and severe dehydration!!!! They gave her the same prescription and sent her home. We argued with the pharmacy and bought the meds. She got better the next day! A few days later we had a flood in our town. I went to help out the fire department and was there until about 3 am. The next morning (actually that morning) I found out that my mother's uncle passed away. This was the same day I was leaving for our family trip. Two days later he was buried. This was also my grandmother's birthday which wasn't realized till later. On the day he was buried everybody went to my grandmother's house after the funeral. His son's family was also their. When it was time for them to leave he sent his wife and two sons off in one vehicle and him and his daughter in the other behind them. They didn't make it very far when she swerved a little on the road. At the same time an 18 wheeler swerved too. The 18 wheeler crashed over her. It tore the top half of the car off. The youngest little boys car-seat straps cut in half and he died at the scene. The older boy which was seated right next to him only got a broken arm. The mom survived long enough to make it to the hospital. She lost half of her face and couldn't hold on any longer. She died the next day. They were buried a few days later in the same casket. The day of their funeral my cousin who was only six months pregnant was admitted into the hospital. She found out a few days later she had preclampsia and had to stay in the hospital until she delivered. We were hoping that would be a while but the baby had different ideas. She was born at six months pregnant. She weighed 15oz. and was 9 3/4" long!!!! Nobody thought she would survive it just seemed impossible. She is now at 1 lb. 14 oz. and is doing well! She had a few scares and i'm sure there will be more to come but we are so happy she's alright. A long time ago my sister found out she had endometriosis. She went through surgery and has had to take a birth control shot to keep from having it again. Here recently she missed her shot for about two months. She went to the doctor the other day and found out the endometriosis is back and worse. They're not sure it was ever gone. they are thinking of doing a full hysterectomy! Also my daughters birthday party was this weekend. Her birthday is actually tomorrow. Then to top things off my husband just found out that his boss is closing down the company in a few weeks and he has to find a new job. Which might I add is virtually impossible to get the same rate of pay he gets now. He was offered to work in New Mexico but would not ever have days when he comes home. He said he was thinking about telling them he would do it if he could come home one week a month. I get to see him only on weekends now and it kills me. I don't think I could take more than that, but I don't want to hold him back either. So I will stop now even though i'm sure there's more. But my main thing is I wanted to apologize to all of you for not getting back to you. It really tears me up to know that you guys really needed that stuff and I didn't help you. I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me and continue to talk to me. I would like to invite you all to look at my pictures, there will be some of the baby too.

Have a migraine,need to be in bed,but..... I just read your god awful bad event filled life journal. I hate to hear all this has happened to you.!!! I unfortunately,have this type of events take place in my life. (I have a very large family-sh-- happens) Most people have a tendency to act as if I've made it all up or they just simply don't give a crap. Just when you think (your) life is starting to calm down and get back to normal,bam,one thing after another happens and your family/friends expects you to be there. Trust me I know all too well. Again,I'm sorry to hear about your misfortunes.
