PMS in a Handbasket--Don't be afraid, just bring us food... Part 22

[Tigger&Belle]

Would it help and attitude, too? Why can't I handle normal stress and issues? I seem to end up on the edge so easily. I'm sitting here in my hotel, losing it, and hoping my daughter doesn't notice and start asking questions. So alone.

Caro, you know, they gave dh within 2 years here a few months ago, and he has done so well, they won't even give a timeline now. Hang in there.

We are there with you, Tig.

And you are not alone my friend.

I'm so sorry sweetie. Anything can happen. They gave my dad less than a year when he was diagnosed with his lung cancer. Its now completely gone and all had was chemo. You just never know what the big guy has in mind for us. Keep the faith and know how much we love you and we are here for you.

Ditto what she said. Big hugs to you Caro and to Mom. Tell her to keep fighting.

[sharlon]

You will never be alone with us here Tig. We luv you!

Thanks everybody, I really appreciate it. It's good to here of those that have done well. I have to keep remembering the successes. Of course now I think of the "what if's and the why's?"

and you know where I am too, Tig.

I am sitting here in a hotel room too, now that you mention it. Waiting for our gymnastic coach's daughters to go to sleep, so I can go back to my own room. Coach won't get here until after midnight, but girls have to be up to start competing at 8, so they rode with us. I hope they are sound asleep soon.

Don't question, just do. Enjoy talking to her, sharing with her. Write her letters (old fashioned I know). Let her know you are here and love her and will fight with her.

There is no why, Pooh. It happens to some, it doesn't to some. Genetics may play a role, environmental factors may play a role.......a combo may play a role..........but there is no real why. It just is. And it sucks.

g'nite beauties! Sweet dreams!

Caro, not sure if I mentioned my FIL's diagnosis. He doesn't have lung cancer, but does have idiopathic (cause unknown) pulmonary
fibrosis, which is a scarring of the lung tissue. The drs said that he could have several years or less, but he was first diagnosed 2-3 years ago, so not sure what this means for his life expectancy. This is really why we're thinking about bringing the kids there this January.

You know, sometimes I think I'm so much better than I was a year ago, but then other times I wonder. Here I am with all my medication and am I really that much better. I guess so in some ways since I'm not walking on the edge nearly as often and when I do it's not as severe, but then other times I wonder.

Tig, there probably isn't anything I can say at the moment to make you feel better about yourself and your situation. But I can tell you that I know my life is better with you in it and I'm sure everyone here would agree.


Caro, I'll hold your mom and you both in my prayers. I'll pray for a cure for her. I'll also pray that you both have the strength to face what ever the future holds. Take one day at a time. Try not to think about the weeks or months a head. One day at a time. She's here now, you and the girls still have her. Make memories that will last you a life time. Take lots of pictures. God willing 20 years from now you can look at them with her. But if not you'll have those precious pictures and memories to hold on to.

Welcome to my life. I was getting very little sleep this time a year ago, which has improved (because of my meds), but I often can't go to sleep at night and can toss and turn for a couple hours (or I get back up). But I now fall asleep during the daytime at the drop of a hat.

What's up with you?

I'm a losing bore...I'm going to try and go to sleep.
