Who knows what the drugs will do to us?

Annie I have had to face many circumstances that I did not think I could face. One thing I have learned over the years is anticipation can often be worse than the event. The sun still rises and sets. Here's hoping that Wednesday will bring a better day.

Hi Annie,

The other's have said it all already, but my sympathy and prayers are with you. You're a strong person - you WILL get through this terrible thing, whatever it is. You know we're all here for you.

(((HUGS)))

Hi Annie,

You've opened up a little and asked for our support...you know you have it in every way possible....but, you need to open up just a tad more...is this AS or personal? If personal, I can understand your hesitation to open up to the entire group but you do have some special friends that will understand what you are going through...please use them. It's what we are here for! My ears are always as close as a PM:)

Annie, You are in my thoughts and prayers...whatever it is that has you in such dire straits I am sure will work out....let us know how today goes! Hugs, DC

Dear Sweet Annie,

I hope by now you feel the love that is here for you. I will pray for you as the others will also. We are here for each other and that is what is so great about this place. We are here for good and bad. And I am so sorry it sounds like some thing bad for you.

I am here as well if you need to talk to some one , one on one. You can PM me any time. It does sound like you need to talk to some one. Please make sure you let us know you are all right because we do worry about our family members and beleive me you are one of the family.

So take care and God bless. And this may sound silly but alot of times when I am having a very hard time when I lay down and sleep I take my bible with me and I find some peace with that. I some times sit in a chair or on my bed. And just sit there with it and some times read it but I co find peace just holding it near. It is like he is there with me. Just remember THE FOOT PRINTS IN THE SAND.

But what it says is you are walking on a beach by your self and you look behind you and there are two set of foot prints. and you know jesus is walking with you.
Then there is trouble times and you are hurting and you look behind you again and you see only one set of foot prints. So you ask why lord did you leave me now when I need you most. I have seen the two sets of foot prints. But know that there is trouble you have left me.

The lords said. Dear dear child you have seen two set of foot prints but when you look behind and only see one I did not leave you. I was caring you.


I hope you find some peace in way I have written. But please remember God is here for you and so is you AS family. We love you very much.
Donna

Prayers and hope for strength headed your way --

All of you are something else and when you pull together your power cannot be measured. I do like to stay in a safe zone and only say so much. I can see now that is a big mistake on my part for look what I have missed. All of you have given me strength power and a feeling of self worth. Some of the posts I caught yesturday and I did find comfort at the present time. I needed both comfort and strength and you gave that to me.
I guess I will let you know what was going on and some of you may say was that all! On the 15th I recieved a subpeona to go to court and testify against my son. How I got roped into this I will never know. My older son and I are not getting along he is in a stage of his life where he feels everyone is against him. He is mean, nasty, and very hurtfull and right at this time he has ripped out my heart and throwen it to the Dogs.
For me it is hard to continue with day to day things and find joy with this hanging over my head.
My son is not in big trouble this was a family court matter and they were pressing the issue of him having a bad temper and they wanted me to clench the deal. My son has 2 boys ages 1 and 2. All I can see is my son and ex-daughter in law playing games. He wants to be a Father but the forces from the other side are fighting him every step of the way. I guess I know how he feels for all I want to do is be a Mother and Grandmother and the forces are against me also. All I know is it hurts and its the deep down kind that you feel will never end.
I will not knock the male gender here or anywhere for I am not that way but how long does it take for the (boymen) in our lives mainly our children to grow up stand up and do the right thing? I would give my life for my children and they seem to think that is not a big sacrifice. For those of you who have a solid loving relationship with your partners or your children savor it with all your might for nothing in life is certain. I know this could all turn around for me in a second a minute or in years but each minute spent in this limbo is hard, it is harder than dealing with the worst that AS can dish out.
This was extremely hard for me to open my door and let all of you in to the ugly side of my life but in order to to heal I guess I had no other choice.
Thank All Of You for listening and being there for me for my first thought was to dissappear again and for the people who know me here know I have a habbit of crawling into the cave and staying there. This event turned out well. We have a friend that is a criminal Lawyer he made phone calls to both Lawyers and they let me go and agreed this was not a good thing to do to a Mother. When I heard this I became a pile of rubber from the tension release. I am still a little shell shocked but I am back to putting one foot in front of the other. Words are not enough to give all of you each and everyone are in my heart you are my true friends. GOD BLESS EACH and EVERYONE on this site................................. SINCERELY Annie

Annie,

I will not say, is that all. You just went through the fire. I have been there, done that. I didn't get out of the testifying part, though. It was terrible, and now, years later, things are still strained. I'm so glad you didn't have to. I'll be praying for you and your family. Family relationships can get us into pickles now and then, put they are still family. Hope everything improves for you. If we helped you at all, I'm glad I got to be a part of it, and I really mean that. Keep on, keepin' on.

Hugs,

Cindy
