Karla when I read your post about support - family not being there, not
understanding it really hit home with me. I have 2 sisters I feel are
strangers. They both don't understand what's going on with me and what ARD
really is. Not whining or anything, but when I went to the ER a couple of
Sundays ago, I was scared. I wanted my Mother like I usually do when I'm not
feeling well and the devil pain creeps up on me. I know that my Mom was
looking down from Heaven, I felt her presence. About a week after my ER
visit my Sister called me to ask me a question....once I answered that she
asked me what else has been going on. I told her about my trip to the ER and
she said...."Oh - well, ok I'm going to go now"....don't get me wrong, I
didn't want to hear....oh you poor thing, I just wanted some kind of support
from my Sister, my family - but that's all I got. When I come to this site
and write......I've been in the ER...I get a whole bunch of get well soon,
best wishes.....and on and on.......all of YOU are my family that's how I
feel. I thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart for
always and I mean ALWAYS being there for me. I feel very blessed with a
family as you. Friends always come to my rescue....always and I love you all
so much for that.
With great love and thanks,
