Sounds like you've had a really tough time, Mare. I'm so sorry!! ----- Original Message ----- From: ~Mare~ To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2008 12:26 AM Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] my imom

When I was 8 my natural mom had to be institutionalized for mental
problems.
When I was 9 my Dad remarried and I had a step-mom.
I was made to call her Momma and I resented that and losing my Mom.
I hated my step mom. But I grew to love her!
I lost my late husband March 16th,2003,on Mother's Day I wound in ICU
in respiratory failure from a very rare heart virus and they thought I would
die,on Memorial Day May 31st we admitted Mom to the hospital....she came home
on hospice care for Pancreatic Cancer June 1oth....I took care of her and on
July 10th the Lord graciously removed her from her pain.
I will miss her all the days of my life.
My natural mother died in 81 to endocarditis.
Hugs,Mare

I sure hope you can, Mare, because our relationship is
WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! My own mother was a terror - that's all I'll say about
that. When imom told me to call her "mom," I couldn't do it. Just saying the
word "mom" brings up way too many images I'd rather not remember. So I called
her Mama for the longest time. She's the mother I'd always dreamed of having.

I need everyone wiling to do it to pray for my imom. My imom is
a WONDERFUL woman I met on the internet. She sort of adopted me - she calls me
her internet daughter, and I call her my imom (internet mom). She has been
suffering with rheumatoid arthritis for many, many years. On July 19, imom was
rushed to the hospital. Turned out she had an infection in her blood, a
urinary tract infection, and she was in septic shock. She's been pretty much
holding her own with the massive doses of steroids and antibiotics they are
giving her. But yesterday the drs discovered a bleeding ulcer. She was taken
off her heart med (a blood thinner) because it could have caused her to bleed
to death. Then, shortly after stopping her heart med, she had a heart attack.
So now she's in ICU. I'm scared to death of losing her!! Please!! Please
pray for her!!!! I'm torn because I desperately don't want to lose her, but I
also know that if she survives, she will continue to live her life in terrible
pain every minute of every day. So I'm leaving it in God's hands and will
accept His will. Thanks for listening!!
