Well just one more thing in my life.....son got a phone call from his best friend at 2:30 this am....he was in a wreck...totaled his car and all he wanted was Zach....unfortunately we were all sleeping and didn't hear the phone.....
Bobby's brother just passed away a few months ago in a quad accident I can only imagine what his parents are going thru.
Of course, alcohol was involved both times......I truely mean that i can not take much more my sanity is hanging together by a string that is stretched as far as it can go. By the grace of God he seems to to ok....
Daughter goes back to Pittsburgh Monday and Tuesday, they told her Friday that she will probably need reconstructive surgery on her face.....
I don't know where I am going to draw this strength from....I have said the serenity prayer more than I can tell you.......
Anyway, prayers please for both my daughter and zach's friends family....
Someone in alanon told me once that God isn't creating the tragedies in our life, but he is there to help us get through them. I'm so sorry you and your family have had more than your fair share. I hope and pray that your HP is present, holding you up when it is too much, and giving strength that will get you through it.
Andrea, you have been there for many of us, please know we are here for you.
I understand what it is like to deal with a severe trauma, my mother was almost killed in an auto accident several years ago, and I spent a year of my life in and out of trauma, rehab, etc.
I understand what it takes to go through the process of recovery.
I am so sorry for the heavy burden you are carrying.
I am going through a difficult time as well. I am grateful for this recent reminder.... hp is always present. Always. It is impossible to be without HP's presence. The problem is, we deny it. The problem is always me.
So, I pray that you are able to grab some time to be still... to feel the presence of your hp's love and strength that is waiting for you. It is an endless storehouse.
((((hugs))))

Prayers are on the way. It never seems to let up does it? I have felt that many times over the past year. It does let up. Lean on your family and friends to help you through this. Much love and blessings to you and your family.
Live strong, Karilynn & Pipers Kitty
