News I didn't ever want to post...

I don't really update this blog often, if at all anymore. However, there are some who may still check it or that I don't have the ability to contact.

I am beyond sad to say that on Friday, October 10, 2008 my Mom ended her struggle and passed away. She was at home, and I am assured it was as quick and painless as it ever can be. She was in good spirits, and had a great breakfast I am told, one of her favorites--Red Velvet Cake. I don't think anyone can be 'ready' for a parent's death, and this has been so hard on me.

I will provide a link to her obituary, in case there are some out there who may wish to see it. God Bless and Keep you all.

Long Time, no post!

Hi!

It's been quite a while since I"ve posted in this blog. Last year I set it private since I didn't have the time to post/update or anything like that--and my life was absolutely crazy.

Well, my life isn't any calmer, but it is less busy. Unfortunately I had to leave my job due to family issues, and my health. So I'm a stay at home mom again--this will take some getting used to! Also I've been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis this past February. I had an attack of optic neuritis and then what followed was tons of tests(I will NEVER have another lumbar puncture-NO WAY). I am hoping it is relasping-remitting MS, but just as diagnosing MS is difficult, so is determining what type it is. I've started on injections of Betaseron-no fun either since I HATE needles LOL. There's a lot of support for MS however, which is awesome.

My mom is better-she is home but her health is never going to be the greatest. We're just all grateful she's still with us! I just spent 6 days down in PA with her and my family. It was great to see her and my gramma!

I will miss working-but I'm looking forward to stitching again!!! I've been scrapbooking a lot lately-now I'm planning the pages about my MS and giving myself every other day shots!!

Well--not sure how often I;ll post, but I'll try!
