Well yesterday started off as a GREAT day! I got to sleep in an extra hour, then relaxed in front of my T.V. and watched some of my recordings that I've been neglecting over the past few weeks. Afterwords, JD and the kidos woke up and gave me a very sweet Happy Birthday.. it really sucked that JD had to leave and go to work!! I also received many happy phone calls wishing me a very happy birthday, but of course there had to be something that wasn't wanted! My mom shocked me with a Bday call... if you know our relationship you may know how that made me feel... and of course she HAD to bring upsetting news with her!! My grandfather (Weir) has been in and out of the hospital for about 3 years now. He has had a number of stokes along with other health issues. Yesterday morning he was taken in to Union Hospitals ER, then moved to the first floor were he was put on a ventilator. Now having conjunctive heart failure and ammonia the doctors say their going to give him 48 hours to re coop, and then their going to take him off the machines to "see how he'll do". I mean I know he's in pain because while I was there to visit him, he kept jerking... and squeezing our hands when we asked him if he was in pain. His doctor wanted to make him comfortable but then again he couldn't allow to much morphine due to his breathing. As if the family wasn't going through enough... some of my lovely family members were complete asses. I mean who the hell do they think they are? One of my cousins... one in which I was very close to growing up... just moved out in my area, and for some reason she thought that she was entitled to be an absolute bitch. I mean it may sound that it really bothered me, but it didn't... with everything that's happened this year alone I've really stepped back and re evaluated the people in my life. And yes she and some of the others are family, but not really... family to me is someone who cares for you know matter how your living your life. So I don't go out and party on the weekends, I don't let my kids go with whom ever just so I can drink and act stupid... so what, in my eyes that doesn't mean I have a boring life. I love being with my family and that's why I can't get along with half of the people I used to!
Sorry... kinda hit a small nerve there!
Any ways... I know my grandpas going to be in a better place soon, whether it's here with us or upstairs with the big guy... at least he wouldn't be in anymore pain!
As for my Bday... other then my grandfather, it was a pretty nice day. My wonderful in-laws had a party for me and I got a lot of cool stuff not to mention all my wonderful friends that wished me a Happy Birthday!
FYI... For my Bday, JD and my kidos are going to take me out to eat and then bowling.. not sure when yet due to my grandfather's condition, but we would love it if you could go out and celebrate with us! Call or message me for details.
Hope all is well in your lifes! Luv ya's!
