Monday, SO much to do!


 I am in the burn everything down phase today.

Braunwyn just called and she is dilated to a 3-4 and they swept the membranes. So, I need to panic and get busy. Luckily, I started 3 wedding dresses Thursday and Friday. My goal today is to get all three done as much as possible that only leaves one left for Sept. That one is due the 24th and I can call and let her know where and when I will return.

School starts for All three local grandchildren on Wednesday. If B is in the hospital, I will be on grandma duty and very busy getting kids to lessons and such. We are just waiting for the call which is THUNDERCATS GO!!

Called and talked to Dan (Sluggy's husband) this morning and it is not at all good. Slugs has not walked in over 8 months and has lost the use of her hands in much of their capacity. She has had so many setbacks, and they really don't know what is wrong.  Some type of a severe Parkinsons condition, but the greatest effect is on her digestive system, and constant nausea and getting sick.  She now weigh's what I weigh, so she is really weak. 

Dan is a great cheerleader and support, but at this point Slugs is giving up.  She has been too sick for too long.  I am angry, hurt and I want to find someone to blame, but I know that is unrealistic. Constant pain is her friend and then adding the lack of muscle strength and the digestive problems, one can hardly blame her. Dan is willing to accept her wishes. Her life has been one trip to the emergency room and hospitals now for almost a year. Although some progress gets made, it is knocked out by the next trip to the hospital. All we can do at this point is pray for whatever God wills, and I am having a very, VERY hard time with that.

I can hardly type this post.

God is good and I know in my heart he will relieve my friend in the way he sees best for her good.
