YOUR SO RIGHT LARRY,. I HAD MANY RELATIVES THAT LIVED ONLY 30 MINUTES AWAY.
I HAVE 7 BROTHERS AND SISTERS. THEY ALL ARE VERY UNDERSTANDING. I HAVE ONE SON
AND 4 GRAND CHILDREN. JENA 15,ZACK,10 LOGAN 5 AND DANIEL WHO IS 2.
WE ALWAYS HAD GET TOGETHERS AND IF I NEEDED HELP IT WAS NO PROBLEM UNTIL
KATRINA HIT. MOST OF THEM LIVED IN BAY ST LOUIS MS WHICH IS NOT 30 MINUTES
AWAY.
ONE LIVED IN LAKE VIEW. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE ALL LIVED ON THE WATER EXCEPT ME
AND MY SISTER IN LAKEVIEW IN NO. 4 ARE IN OK WE HAVE FAMILY THERE. THEY ARE
DOING GREAT AND WILL NOT COME BACK. MY SON WENT TO WV BY HER FAMILY. MY SON
WANTS US TO GO LIVE BY THEM BUT MY HUSBAND NOR I THINK IT WOULD WORK. SINCE MY
SONS WIFE IS BY HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS SHE REALLY NEVER SPEAKS TO US. MY SON
CALLS US AND WE CALL HIM. ITS ASHAME
WHEN SHE WAS HERE BOY WE GAVE HER SO MUCH INCLUDING OUR SUMMER HOME WE PUT
IT IN MY SONS NAME.
ITS STILL STANDING AND WE HAD ALL THEIR HOMES GUTTED DAN BUILT THEM.THEY ARE
JUST SITTING THERE. MY SON WANTS TO REDO HIS WELL HIS DAD, BUT BONNIE WANTS
TO SELL AND TAKE A HUGE LOSS. MY SON SAID NO I WANT THE KIDS TO REMEMBER WHAT
A DIFFERECE LIVING THERE AND HERE IS LIKE. THEY LOVED THE BOATS THE JET SKIS
GOING TO THE BEACH AND GIGGING FOR FLOUNDERS.THEY MISS IT HERE BUT ALSO LIKE
THE SNOW. BUT MY SON SAID ITS SO DIFFERENT AND HE IS THE ONE WHO WANTS TO
COME HOME.
MY SON HAD SURGERY HE CALLED TO TELL US. I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL SO I WAS
REALLY UPSET WE COULD NOT BE THERE. HIS SURGERY WAS AT 11 AM THEY ARE A HOUR
AHEAD OF US. SEAN TOLD US BONNIE WOULD CALL AS SOON AS HE WAS IN RECOVERY.
SHE CALLED AT 7 THAT NIGHT I WAS SO UPSET. MY HUSBAND CALLED HER MOMS LEFT
MESSAGES AND HER HOME HER SISTER AND HER CELL. THEY HAD TO SEDATE ME I THOUGHT
THE WORSE OF COURSE AND BEING IN THE HOSPITAL SICK MYSELF MY BLOOD PRESSURE
WAS GOING THRU THE ROOF.
DAN TOLD SEAN DAYS LATER HE WAS FURIOUS AND HE HAD A ARGUMENT WITH HIS WIFE.
ITS FUNNY THEY WENT EVERY YEAR TO SEE HER FAMILY AND THEY CAME HERE.
SHE IS NOW IN NURSING SCHOOL AND TAKES SUMMER CLASSES SO I HAVE SEEN THEM
ONCE IN 2 YEARS. MY SON SAID HE IS COMING WITH THE KIDS FOR XMAS NO MATTER HOW
MUCH BONNIE COMPLAINS. MY WHOLE FAMILY WILL BE HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
OVER 2 YEARS IT WILL BE SO GREAT.
I ALSO HAVE FRIENDS WHO HARDLY KNOW ME NOW I CANNOT PLAY TENNIS ANY MORE.
ILLNESS REALLY TELLS YOU WHO REALLY CARES AND THE ONES WHO DO NOT.
I HAVE DAN AND OTHER FRIENDS WHO ARE GREAT. I CAN DRIVE COOK DO SOME
CLEANING BUT I DO TIRE EASILY. I AM ON COMMITTES AND THAT KEEPS ME BUSY ALSO.
A LLNESS THAT HAS NO CURE AND WE REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR US
THAT IS WHY I SAY TIAD..
I KNOW WHO LIKES ME FOR WHAT I AM AND UNCONDITIONALLY. JUST BECAUSE I HAVE A
WALKER I STILL DO AS MUCH AS I CAN, I HAVE TO GO GET FITTED FOR A LEG BRACE.
I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG I WILL HAVE TO WEAR IT BUT I AM A UP BEAT PERSON LOVE
LIFE AND NO ONE WILL GET ME DOWN NOT EVEN TM.
LARRY IS RIGHT LOVE THE ONES WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE AND NEVER SAY NEVER,
GOD BLESS TIAD PAM
