BIG BLACK CLOUD GO AWAY!!!



ok big black cloud in 30 seconds. 2 transmissions blown. our dog of 12 years got ran over while our daughter was in the nicu for 5 weeks. husband unemployed for 5 months. lost our home our cars. had to relocate to a whole new state for a job. still 4 months later have not got work from these people. my baby has chronic ear infections, my son has not had insurance for 5 months. we are a lil late on our rent and we get evicted.. having to move and pay for christmas in 1 month.. priceless

Ok here we go again..we are 100.. dollars late on our rent.. we owe 2 $35 late fee's. and $300. toward pets fee's which we are supposed to make payments on till paid off.. so basically we are 100 behind on this month and she is evicting us..Im just freakin speachless..I have been so patient with these people its not funny.. Its new construction so i've tried to be patient.. we have no screens on our windows our yard is not finished it needs to be graded cleaned mowed etc.. these people mow the lawn once a freakin month.. I have pics to prove it it literally gets three feet tall.. our front door is not to code its like a 2 foot drop off.. etc etc etc..but have I said a word.. no..so now on top of not being able to get my kids anything for christmas I have to find somewhere to freakin move..unbelievable..

we moved out here because sears windows hired jj but he has not got one job from them..thanks sears..
took emma to the doct again today and she has a ear infection..so wooo hoo that ear tube is working great..

So im not normally not a begger but if you have family or friends who donate money at christmas..tell them about my family.. I have added a donate now button..if not its cool.. i hate to be a begger anyways.. I just dont know, what were gonna do..so my favorite word will i will end with is blaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

still not feeling better

well this sinusitus stuff sucks all to heck..Shes coughed so much her ear, the ear she got the ear tube in has started bleeding..also her mickey has been having blood around it.. her antibiotics has given her horrible diarea. so now shes on clear fluids so were back to the docs tomorow for some new med.. I hope all this coughing and stuff doesnt mess up her ear tube.. poor lil thing is pitiful..only thing that makes her feel a lil better is veggie tales..

cough cough cough

Emma has been fighting a cold for a week now..since her ear tube surgery it has gotten way worse.. all she does is cough she cant sleep or anything..its so pitiful.. and she doesnt know how to cover her mouth so with every cough we are showered.. I took her to the er today and they said she has sinusitus nothing they can do about her cough..they gave her some antibiotics.. and said to put some vicks on her bib.. ok i just dont see that working..I feel like taking someone hostage and making them give her some cough syrup..the way she is coughing i would have guess wooping cough or something..poor girl..she is so upset its making her mad..please pray its better soon.

ear tube surgery

well ear tube surgery went great.. no even 5 minutes.. im so glad i pushed for the tube.. she has had 3 infections in 3 months.. plus they kept saying it wasnt infected that it just had fluid built up. but when they released the fluid it was all kind of nasty.. so she is probably going to be feeling so much better.. on the good note her gait trainer was approved. so whats it is in hand im gonna start the battle of the beds.. I cant get the one I truley want just a small one but at least it will be a bed.. she coughs and gags alot at bedtime,so i put 2 pillows under her head and one under her but to hold her and her brace in place.. so every 2 hours or so i have to keep repositioning her... oh did i mention she nows sleeps in my bed so i dont have to keep going accross the room and fixing her..although we both do like the cuddling.. her pt, speech are going great she is taking the girls good..cant wait to get in feeding clinic..well gotta go feed her..

update on swallow study

emma did great on the swallow study. i dont know if she was starved but she almost seem to like that nasty stuff.. no aspirating.. she swallowed good. but she does not know how to chew she just swallows chunks.. also liquid she tried to take in but couldnt get it in.. so feeding clinic here we come..

on the bad news my rent is late again. they jipped his paycheck so now the landlord is pissed and wants even more money..i understand where she comes from but i dont have to like it.. shes not real nice..so yea life or should our situation sucks again. how can you go from loosing a house and 2 cars, being unemployed for 5 months. to relocating on $9 an hour and still make it. its just disgusting.. my depression is in full bloom..blaaaaaaaaaa

my heart breaks for lil recesse


Today I found out that sweet lil recesse has passed and gone to be in heaven. My heart is broken and I've never even met any of them.. Its a weird world that we make friends on the computer and never even get to meet.. Recesse has emanuel syndrome like emma so this is really just breakin my heart. I cant even imagine what they must be feeling. again im grateful for emma and all her miracles.. yet It makes me scared because do we really know how long we will all be here.. so many things have scared me lately with emanuel. I try to be happy always but if i truley think about the future its so scarey because no one knows.. so i will leave you with a poem in memory of sweet recesse.. did i mention she passed on her one year birthday...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET BABY GIRL.. i will get to meet you later in life youve touched my heart like you will never know..
"I'll lend to you for a little time,
A child of mine," God said,
"For you to love while she lives
And mourn for when she's dead."

"It may be six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three,
But will you till I call her back,
Take care of her for me?"

"She'll bring her charms to gladden you
And should her stay be brief,
You'll have these precious memories
To comfort you through grief."

"I cannot promise she will stay
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn."

"I've looked this world over,
In my search for teachers true.
In the crowds of this great land,
I have selected you."

"Now will you give her all your love
Not think the labor vain,
Nor hate me when I come to call
To take her back again?"



It seems to me I heard them say,
"Dear Lord, thy will be done.
For all the joys a child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run."

"We'll shelter her with tenderness,
We'll love her while we may,
And for the happiness we've known
Forever grateful stay."

"And should the angels call for her
Much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes
And try to understand."
