Originally posted 2018-02-16 22:09:10. Today didn’t go as planned so the procedure had to be rescheduled until next Friday morning. One of the machines used in separating the blood wasn’t working properly and she didn’t want to try to do it without knowing for sure the machine was fully operational. She apologized numerous times and even gave me $100 back on the cost of the procedure. Which I might add is something I have never seen anyone…

Prayers Please
Originally posted 2020-12-07 15:20:11. Please keep us in your prayers. This morning we found out that we may have been exposed to someone who was COVID19 positive. We weren’t around this person but my niece and nephew were and they came to our home several times, like they always do. They came over on Saturday, back and forth like normal. They just didn’t know they were around someone who was positive just I guess not…
What is menopause?
Throughout a woman’s life, the female hormones estrogen and progesterone are responsible for reproductive health and for supporting many of the tissues throughout the body. These hormones are produced in the ovary, when stimulated by the brain to do so. As a woman ages, the ovaries stop producing sex hormones at the same rate. This can happen as early as in the late 30s or early 40s, and women may start to notice symptoms as…
Rape and Alcohol
Originally posted 2015-07-08 17:54:46. Two of the times I have been raped I was under the influence of alcohol. Because of the things I have gone through in my life, the lives of my family members and close friends I am really just not the type of person that drinks like that. Yes, I am Irish so the typical Irishmen are drinkers theory hangs over my head. The first rape was because that…
Grief is f’n hard
Today, in 2018, was the last day my momma spoke. Today is the day she started that rapid decline. Today is the last day my momma spoke to me. Today is the day that beautiful soul who I called mom, said her goodbyes. Today is the day my world was hit by a cat 5 of emotions. Today is the day my world started falling apart.
Not so sweet strangers

Most of people have a memory of the ice cream truck coming by and the excited feeling you get knowing you were about to get something off the ice cream truck, YAY! Well that’s for most people. I admit I used to feel the same way. UNTIL…. Living in Las Vegas, NV we lived right behind a business that supplied ice cream trucks their inventory. Naturally they would frequent our apartment…

Just prayers
Originally posted 2022-08-01 12:48:44. Hey ya’ll I could use some prayers. A friend of mine, that I have known her and her family for 20 plus years. Her momma has had 2 strokes in less than two weeks and declining rapidly. She’s an only child and her sole decision maker in her health and wellness. She has only spoken to me as she is struggling with telling anyone else. She is hoping that she just…
Seeing signs
Originally posted 2015-06-19 13:23:07. I have been reading posts from other domestic violence survivors in support groups. I see myself in so many of the stories I read. The intimidation, manipulation, the “love” the abusers claim they have for their victims. It kills me because as I remember all that I was told and all he claimed I was just so blind and made to believe what he was saying to me was out of…
Falling in Love
Originally posted 2020-12-05 08:27:35. Do you agree? I know looks are the first thing you see but you get to know that person and it becomes more than just looks. It’s funny because my husband and I had no intention to get into any relationship whatsoever. It was more like a booty call. Then like Emeril say, BAM! 14 plus years later… How long for you?
