In the past few years she’s gone through alot and instead of getting all “dramatic” on you - i’ll just do a list of things we/her have experienced in the past 7 years.

  • Years ago - finds out about football size cyst on ovary.
  • Messes up back at work.
  • Learns that son has degentative(sp?) bone disease in back
  • Learns that her only daughter may never have children - (I was diagnosed with poly cystic ovaries in October of 2001 by a bunch of morons that didn’t explain anything to me.)
  • Also learns that same day - that daughter also has gallstones. ( Still have ‘em )
  • Her brother has stroke and heart attack in same day - she’s the one that must take care of him.
  • Diagnosed with diabetes.
  • During George’s ( her brother ) surgery for his hernia - finds out he’s diabetic.
  • Finds out she has high cholesterol.
  • Finds out son has enlarged heart.

I think that’s pretty much the keynotes there for bullshit to be thrown at a person - I know others have gone through worse and are going through worse. I just want to help her out - while she drives me nuts and I disagree with some of the stuff she pulls with me and not with my brother - she’s still mom and she deserves to be happy.
