trying not to cry

it's been quite awhile, but I actually have to put his in writing before I go insane. So much has been going on, I think the devil never rests. My daughter has been very disrespectful, calling me every bad name she can that she knows will hurt me. she has been hanging around with the wrong crowd and I worry about my grandson, even though that is her son, I just think she shouldn't have him exposed to that. now I have another problem. My brother is in his late stages of life, he has so many health problems and I have to be strong for him. It's too much for me, why do I have to be the strong one, why do I have to be there when he takes his last breath. I have been crying non stop for this last few days and I don't want anyone to know I'm weak. Tomorrow I will have to arrange for hospice and try to get all the paper work taken care of, I don't think I'm that strong. God Please be with me.

Hey there. Don't worry about being seen crying. Crying is one of the most human responses there is. God loves you and God understands. If your daughter feels that way just invite her to go live somewhere else

Who Takes Care Of The Caretaker When The Caretaker Needs Care??? My heart goes out to you! Been almost there, done almost that! Felt the same distress! Where the Hell is every one else??? Why is it only my Responsibility?? What about Them??? It is hard now to think logically. But, you are one Person! That limits you! Try very hard to understand your limits. We live in an Imperfect World! Accept the fact that you can only do, what you alone can do. If any of those bastards that should have been thee and weren't, shove it right down their throats and feel no guilt!! Nuff Said!! Art said that!
