URGENT PRAYER REQUEST!~


I just got an emergency phone call that my brother-in-law, Tony, was taken in for emergency surgery. Hubby just called and said Tony was eating his supper. All of a sudden, he started shaking. His eyes rolled back into his head and he stopped breathing. They had to call Code Blue. They rushed him straight into surgery and have determined that they are going to have to remove his ruptured spleen. They will do other exploratory surgery while they have him open to make sure they didn't miss anything else. Please continue to pray for him. Here is a photo of my brother-in-law, Tony, and his wife, Mary. She is Hubby's youngest sister and the youngest of 9 children).
Thanks so much!~
Susan

Hello Susan I had no idea a ruptured spleen was so severe. It is a good reason to know CPR, which I don't, but would try to from what I do know. I hope he is doing alright and got immediate care. mark/salty

CHRISTmas Miracles Do Happen!~

Our family, tonight, was the recipient of a CHRISTmas Miracle. We were watching TV, the story of Mark David Chapman, the man who shot John Lennon, when we received a knock on our door. It was two of my nephews and a great nephew with two HUGE boxes. I asked them what they were doing, they said, "Delivering your CHRISTmas." It was so unexpected, I didn't know what to say. Nobody really knows the extent of how bad things have been for us lately. We have lived off of boxed mac and cheese mixed with tuna or Rice-A-Roni mixed with a small can of chicken. Some nights, we might have pasta, but without the meat. We have had egg sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches. I have actually lost about 8 pounds, which I needed to lose, but I do not recommend doing it this way. I hugged my nephews and told them thank you. They told us Merry CHRISTmas and left. It was just that quick. When I opened the boxes, there were wrapped gifts. I did not have one gift under our tree for either of ...

WHAT IT IS LIKE TO HAVE A MENTAL BREAKDOWN

It is hard to put into words what it is like to have a mental breakdown. Not only is it hard to try and describe what it is like, but it is hard to talk about because you fear how people are going to react to you. So many mentally ill people have to deal with the stigma attached to the words mental illness, and end up being treated like they have leprosy. While it isn’t easy to tell my story, I feel compelled to do so.  First of all, writing is therapy for me, but I also feel like it will let others like me know that they are not alone. Perhaps, it may even help family and friends understand what it is like to live inside the mind of someone who is mentally ill, and what it is like to have a breakdown. I have been hospitalized a total of three times due to mental breakdowns.  When I was much younger, they were called nervous breakdowns, I prefer the newer term. As for what it is like, I will do my best to try and explain. Believe me, if you have never suffered from one, you...
