Dear Ada,

Such terrible news. But what an oppurtunity. I have always found that when tragety happens that people are more open than they have been or will be in the future. These are times that your faith will carry you through and give you opportunitys to share your faith with your remaining family and friends.

In tough times I find Psalms to be a refuge for me. I don't want to give you a paticular psalms because I don't know you enough. I would say just keep reading psalms until one grabs you and doesn't let go. Keep reading it over and over when you find it and you will find a way to put down your sorrow and replace it with Gods Joy. May God Bless YOU!!

MRPETE

I wanted to thank all of you for your prayers and kind thoughts.

I am having such a time getting through this so I won't write much.

My Step-daughter is very strong. We are both Virgo's and so much alike but that girl has more strength then anyone I know. She has always been strong. That we don't have in common. She and her brother are like my own.

Her husband took over 70 Zanex's and other meds before going out too the woods and shooting himself so they think the meds actually done him in.

He was a welding instructor at a College but he had lost his sister years ago in the firey bus crash in Ky. where 40 people burn up. He'd just lost his Mom and his Grandma so he was definatly dealing with a lot. I do know though from what I go through that he definately was dealing with major depresssion and suicidal tendencies just as I do.

My other relatives that passed were on my side of the family. I come from a very big family and grew up with all of them. My Mom's Aunt married my Dad's Uncle so both families were intertwined. When you grow up with family and remember playing ball with them and other things then it really hits home.

My RSD was acting up last week but I got lidocane injections and took my meds so that has helped there. I went to Councelling Wed. to deal with this. I live in councellng and I'm thankful for my Dr. being my lifeline.

Anyway, Thank ALL of you for your good thoughts and prayers. This sure hasn't been easy but I am thankful for having so many good people like you in my life as well as my family.

Love,
Ada
