Hiya all....
Its been some harrowing few weeks loaded with tons of great news with my Mom getting the clear on a "terminal" cancer.... she is totally cancer free!
So life throws other things at you. But I am learning to change my thinking patterns, and that is changing everything. No.... I dont have it all together, but I am amazed at how positive life looks, and the open doors when we actually have the energy and zest to run through them! I realized that I did a lot of complaining before about what was "not" happening in my life, and that was only my fault.
I've had a harrowing week, and day for that matter. Its only Monday and I'm already referring to the week! My Dad went into Rehab five days ago. He left against their advice (it was a voluntary program), came home to my Mom, said he'd made a huge mistake, and asked her to take him back to Rehab. This is my Mom who is not supposed to be alive right now. So she took him back, happily that he had made the right choice. But on a bridge going over the St. John's River (google it), he decided to open the door and try to jump out. All I can say, is that God intervened. The draw bridge came up, but there was no ship going under.
As well, my daughter volunteers in the ER two days a week over the summer. She went in today to be pulled aside and told that she as well as many other had been exposed to a toxic case of TB. (tuberculosis). Well she has had every shot know to mankind plus some, but they told her she had no choice but to get in an ambulance and go to another ER... LOL and get an emergency TB as almost 75% of those she had worked with her that day had become very sick. That was five days ago she last volunteered? No phone call? They waited until she came in today to tell her this? They hauled her off for a shot without my permission? Am I just PMS? She is volunteering because she is a "minor", but they can haul her off and give her a shot without calling me? Fumes.....
Deep breaths....
