This year I have not been at this forum very much, I haven't posted much at all because this year has been arguably the scariest year I've ever had, and it just hit its peak this morning, and I just need a place or two to vent.
See, Earlier this year My Uncles Cancer took a very nasty turn, where his quality of living went straight downhill. he died about two months ago, but I have no regrets with that because I already told him how much I loved him. Then there's the fact my Mother's work fired her not once, but twice because of incompetent management, so she has been unemployed until recently, which means money is tight around here. Also this year, my father started having heart problems, which was topped off with Double bypass surgery ALSO about two months ago....So...He's recovered nicely, my father, and his heart is 100% healthy, so I was just beginning to feel at ease when my Grandmother, my last grandmother, found a lump. After two weeks of baited breath, the diagnosis is Lymphoma, a form of cancer. Not very cool, to say the least.
I love my grandmother, but now my parents have to face reality and are planning for the imminent arrival of my Grandfather, of who suffered a stroke a few years ago and is somewhat confined to a wheelchair. This place is not wheelchair accessible, we haven't the room, which means there's going to be construction work needed that we really can't afford to extend our house for him.
So yeah. Not a very Holly Jolly or Thanks Giving year so far. Sufficed to say I'm....very frustrated. Can't catch a break anywhere this year.
