It seems last night he took a turn for the worse. He stopped wanting to eat ~ even if being fed. They are considering a feeding tube. He spiked a fever of 102 and feel that he may have a touch of pneumonia. So they have started…

He sees me crying, mad, frustrated, etc I can’t escape. All the while trying to repair hurricane florence damage. I have been going to my local massage envy every few weeks for a deep tissue massage. It has helped tremendously from a physical standpoint but not really helped mentally. I need an…
You know… there are times when I truly just can’t with my son… Here he is 30 years old and sometimes he acts like he’s six years old. He has been throwing tantrums like a little kid. He has been going outside in the backyard, dropping his pants/drawers and peeing 🤦🏼♀️ I can only imagine the horror if any of my neighbors were watching. Granted we do have six foot fence but my neighbor behind…

But isn’t that one beautiful box of crayons? Each one having it’s own characteristics. Each one shining in it’s own way in many different angles. But this is just the way I see it. How about you?
I wish I could explain the feelings going through my veins. To have learned the things I have and to know the things weren’t as they seemed… the shear amount of disappoint is unbelievable. Now to have to deal with all of that is beyond irritating. There are family members that shouldn’t have to even go through this right now but yet here we are. Then another family member is MIA and holds truths that…

I had it in my mind this was just a muscle issue. I guess this also kind of explains why everything I’ve tried to use to ease the pain didn’t 100% work. I went by myself since I didn’t think this appointment was going to…
