That's good to hear you're not going to let this pull you life out! Is so easy to do, but you have to find the way to get past this and pray they come around. I think they will but gosh it's hard in the mean time! Hope your 3 days with the grands are full with much laughter and adventure :). Merry Christmas my beautiful friend!

Oh Sissy48, I'm so sorry you're going through a tough time right now. I agree with @d37, the holidays can sometimes be a tough time for people. I'm sure your boys are missing their dad and don't even realize it. Hang in there...we're here here for you. Hugs and prayers!

Hang in there Sissy48, and take one day at a time. Forcus on healing and deep breathing. There is nothing wrong with making your loved ones realize that they need to be strong, caring, and supportive for you now to help you get strong so that you can be the strong, supportive, and caring person you have always been. My thought and prayers are with you.

Well Ladies I have been fighting depression . My boys are in a fued with each other . My oldest has disowned me for pertecting my youngest son . The hardest part of this if my husband their dad that passed away was here this wouldn't be happening . I cry about it almost all day . My youngest is probably moving out of state over this . So I stay sick to my stomach . I eat when I'm depressed so I have gained 5 lbs . I feel like im about to loose it .

Oh Sissy, I'm so so sorry!! I have went through really hurtful things with my adult sons too (your situation is so much harder I'm sure) the only thing that got me through was prayer (lots of it), exercising (either that or antidepressants) and eminent myself that they are adults and they are making adult choices (good or bad) that I can't control or fix. ((((Hugs)))) my sweet friend, you are in my thoughts!

Sissy, I wish I was there for you, I know it's hard. But you will pull through this. You are strong, courageous, and beautiful. If you weren't strong, life would have beat you by now, but it hasn't. Sometimes we have to just breath and press through. It sometimes helps me if I turn off my drama (phone) and leave town. Actually did that last week for 2 days. Came back with a new outlook. For me, just removing myself from the sameness helps me see past the present circumstance. Many many hugs my friend. You are close in my heart and I know you are going to get through this! I'm here ( long distance) for you girl!

My girls fight on and off all the time!  Right now they are getting along.  Don't stress too much.  Blood usually wins and they will get back together.  Sometimes, they need a timeout and you need to let them have it.  Tell your oldest your sorry you upset him and then just step back.  Please don't stress over it.  It will work itself out eventually.  My girls didn't speak or like each other for 5 years and today they are talking and getting along.  I let them work it out themselves but was always there for each of them.

Great2beMe it hurts when our kids fight . I can't step back my oldest is a strong willed person . When he says something he stands by it . So until he stops with going to beat his brother up I have to protect him . My oldest was in the Iraq war at the beginning of the war and sometimes his temper is hard to handle . He is mad at his brother for what a room mate did in his house . My you gets was renting my oldest house .the room mate was smoking meth in his house and my youngest told my oldest and he kicked the room mate out .  My youngest told him so it would stop . So he is mad at his brother for no reason . The middle son and the oldest are in a fight because the guy that was doing drugs in his house works for the same company as my middle son . His work told him he will loose his job if he doesn't stay out of the guys off time life . Yes the guy still has a job . It's just a mess . I will get through it . I'm happy your girls are talking again .

Harley vacation

My vacation was just ok considering my back pain . We rode the Harley to Branson with friends . We go every year and stay in a beautiful 6000 sq ft house on Table Rock Lake . The house is one of our friends clients and we stay for free it's awesome . I go to the chiropractor today and have to go 3 times a wk for 15 wks . Then every 3 wks forever . It depends how close it is to summer wether I will have surgery when my back is well enough to have it . I will wait until around October if it isn't well enough . I'm not upset anymore about not being able to do it in Nov. . I guess it's better because I can get my last revision on my breast pd for . I hope all of you ladies have been doing great . I haven't kept up on everyone because I was on vacation .

You know bladder problem is a sign of cauda equiana syndrome? (I'm sure I didn't spell that right). The "horse tail" of nerves can become pinched causing permanent loss of nerve function. It warrants attention immediately. Does your doc know? Since you in okc, do you use remandino? The whole neuroscience group is top notch in the field.
User Avatar
October 22, 2013
No I didn't know its called that . I do have a pinched nerve . No my dr doesn't know . It's only happened 3 times . I will research it today . I'm so tired of this back crap I'm getting really down so I don't want bladder surgery . My mom said I need to go to my dr . She thinks I need surgery . My mom has had bladder surgery . No I've never heard of ramadino .
