Well I will try and get a post up today, But my time is limites these days , rounds of Doctors and test , but I think we are throuh with all the test , she has said ” ENOUGH” as they have given her 6-to 9 months to live, ( I hate it when the give someone a time like that for then ‘THEY WILL DIE” ) and I surely didn’t want her to give up. She has ” Carcinoma ” and it is really bad . So I spend most of my time with her are as much as I can , she is too weak to drive very far by herself as she get really wore out , but she has made a trip to town to the P.O. by herself , but most I take her where ever she needs to go, I have not called her this morning . but will as soon as I get off here. No need in going into all the long details of what we have been thur in the last 6 months as I think you must have some idea of your own. needless to say it has been a hard and heartbreaking time and it is just beginning, the worse is yet to come.
Now my Grandson Josh ( I know I have talked about him alot here ) has joined the Marines, and I can not say I am real happy about that, of course I am proud of him , I always have been, and I don’t think my kids are grandkids are any better than anyones else’s, but no one wants to send thier babies off the war, But what I really hate is they lie to these young people, ( They told him he would ” Most likely never see combat ” Who in the hell do they think they are kidding, altho Josh is a firefighter, he will be right in the middle of it, Get this “”" They told hin even if he gets send over he will ” MOST” likely never leave leave the base.. EXCUSE” me where in the hell are all the fires??? ROADSIDE—–THAT’S WHERE. not on some safe little base somewhere.. but lets get real here —there are no safe bases in this damm war. It is his choice to join a I give him my full support and I am behind him 100% —–But damm it ” DON’T LIE TO THOSE KIDS”
Okay I have ranted enough for now I am sorry I will not be able to visit today, but will really try and do so tomorrow.
LOVE AND LIGHT—STARWOLF

My prayers are with you. It is hard times
I have been wondering about you lately… I thiught perhaps you stopped blogging… I will keep her in my prayers, how tough for all of you, and I will keep grandson in my prayers as well… please hug him for me. I know how you feel, as there was a time 21 was seriously condiering the service… I was relieved when he decided against it.
Thank you for the update. This isn’t easy and I am sure that she loves having you there to help her out with everything. Prayers.
Hang in there, and remember that those prognoses are guesses — educated guesses, but not always accurate.
My prayers are with you
I have thought about you so many times even wanted to email you but I have been going through moods where I can’t seem to get going with anything, I think it’s these ear infection’s I keep getting they just make me so tired. Sometimes I start something then just let it go and never finish. My heart goes out to you and the pain and worry I know you are feeling with your sister. God bless her. Pain can wear us down to the point we just yell no more and we want to give up but she has you to help her fight. If you don’t hear from me never think I don’t care or think about you I am just in a rut and wondering what to do with this life I live. I care a great deal about you. Take care of you and your sister and keep in touch with us we all care we want to know how you and your sister are doing.
your friend always Shirley
I am so glad to hear you are OK!! I was worried about you. I am so sorry to hear about your sister. That is just awful. I know she must treasure you to have you there for her during all of this. You are a gem. ((hugs)) and prayers.
I’m very sorry. I know how tough this is for you both. I lost my stepmom to leukemia last year… I can completely empathize with your situation. (((((hugs))))
Semper Fidelis to Josh. I hope he doesn’t get sent over and if he does, I hope he returns safely.
