Well thank you! Yes, daughters are wonderful although these days for some reason we all seem to be falling apart in this household. I wonder if we're all finally feeling the full effects of how life has changed and can't seem to cope. I made the mistake of sharing this information with my family member (I can hear Len and my Mom saying being careful what you tell her) and she used it against me with my youngest. She deserted the girls and I about a year and a half ago then swooped in recently ( after I had the meltdown over coffee with her) and tried to convince the youngest that it was time to leave home and that I would have to accept it and let go. Well it's a long story and much more complicated than that but I was furious that she went and stabbed me in the back. Things blew up in her face (not my doing) and now she's mad at me?! Anyway, my family has not been very kind the past 2 years and left us to deal with everything on our own while they sat back and watched us suffer and judged everything I did. I do have a half sister that reconnected with me after my Mom passed and we email back and forth all of the time and she's been great. That's my wonderful 'family' life. Lol!
It does sound like it's time for Stan to be on antidepressants. How sad that he is struggling so much. Has he always been the type to hold things in like it appears he is? It's hard to imagine what goes on in the mind of a person who is teminal but it must be so difficult. It's good that he has a doctor's appointment on Tuesday and maybe they will give him something to help him but for sure you will have to take the pills hostage and hidden away from him. Len's medications seemed to keep him from getting overwhelmed except when the witch doctor came to our house and felt the need to impress on him that he would soon would be gone. That's when he blew up at her, then went to bed and never got up again. Thank goodness that Stan's doctors tend to have a lot more compassion than to do things like that.
I wish I could force myself to get some of the hundreds of things done here that I have to do. I have lost my mojo and can't seem to move forward on anything. I'm really hoping that this trip away will help me get back on track. Maybe I'll come back and tackle the yard,the house, and my windows too. Lol!
Hugs,
Tracie
