I am sorry about what's going on in your life right now. I understand about the problems of moving into a community and not having family and the difficulties of making friends when you don't have anything in common...it's tough! It's work and when you have health issues like you do...you just don't have the energy ... You have the support here, you know that. ![]() ![]()

![]() ![]() I'm so sorry that all this is happening to you and your family - seems like you have taken one hit after the other. I so wish I lived closer to you so I could do something to help - even if it's just to offer a shoulder to cry on. But...you know I'm just a phone call away. I know it seems like you're being spread mighty thin these days - and having the one person you counted on for so much out of play for the time being has got to be very difficult. Please be kind to yourself - and take the time to rest and take care of yourself, too. Housework will wait (I know...mine still is!) and the boys are old enough to help with that and with things like grocery shopping and meal prep. You know your family is in my prayers every day - and I say a special one for you. Call me anytime - you know I'm usually always here and usually always awake ![]()

Man, Joelle...is there a button or a brass ring nearby on this merry-go-round that you are on? If so, push the button, or pull the ring and stop the ride for a few days!! You need a break!

Joelle,
I just wanted to let you know that I am also thinking about you and hoping that you all get a break soon. As everyone has said, try to take some time for yourself even if it is just a half hour. Take care, ![]() Barb |

![]() ![]() How's Tim doing? Any better? I hope he's getting stronger each day and can be of some help to you before too long. You're due for a break and I've been praying for you and your family each and every day. Call me if you need to talk - I've not wanted to bother you 'cause I know you have precious little time to rest. I'm glad to see you posting again...... ![]()

Don't be sorry, J, it's better to process those emotions than to let them fester under some "social norm". You're only human, give yourself a break.
I'm so sorry for all that your mom is enduring, it's unbelievably difficult even when you are right there. I was, and I felt much of what you describe. You've done all that is in your power to do for her and your dad, that says a lot. ![]()

Joelle no need to apologize! I am so sorry for everything you are going through! Just know that you and your whole family are in my thoughts. I pray for strength for all of you during this difficult time! It must be difficult not being there for mom and dad. Take care of yourself too!
