AND NOW, A DEFINITE UPDATE

... amen...

FAMILY
In Puerto Rico noone can hear you scream… That should be the slogan for them. Ugh! Sheez! Why? Simple:

Grandfather is almost dying at that home in which he was placed. Not taken good care of. Not living just being barely kept alive. Not recognizing auntie, not opening much his eyes, and doctors are not optimistic about his future… A death foretold. But sincerely, THAT would be the best thing for him. Being forgotten in a home with onle a mandatory visit a month, a quick one, is not worth living. He needs to be with his wife and with his mother and father… Enough is enough.

Auntie: Noone visits her… Noone but LightShadow and Groundel when they go to check the cats, and once a month when my mother shows up to take her to the grocery store. Now she’s missing us. She thinks we’ll be over there soon… I wish. What Deedee needs is not in PR… It is the only thing that truly saddens me, not being able to be there for her as she deserves. Many times I wonder what to do, as I KNOW she needs me. We fight all the time, but we love each other the same way…

Uncle: Undergo an operation which was successful and is recovering in SJ. As usual, I know now but noone said anything about the operation, etc… Communication… None… Nothing changes…

Mother: Not so well, as she and her hubby are STILL with the skin illness, plus diabetic trademarks. But, since one tells them what to do and they don’t do it…

Florida Uncle: Has called various times to check up on Deedee’s status. My cousin has called him also trying to find out wherabouts. That’s surprising.

Everyone else: Haven’t heard much of anyone else. Maybe people got sucked into a black hole or something


FRIENDS
Groundel is in the hospital again. Well, he was off it for 4 months… So I guess it was due. Not taking his insulin and not telling people what he should… What to do, what to do… He’s at Perea, Room 308. Please call/visit him, he needs all the support he can get. And it drives me psycho not being able to be there….

LightShadow: Working/working/working/caring for her mom/ caring for everyone else/ working…

Coriolis: Missing in action. Don’t know what his problem is, and since he won’t tell or call back, I guess I’ll never know. I don’t get such behaviour from someone who used to call me “ best friend”… Guess that’s what happens when you are forced to live in someone’s house for 3 months…


CATS
Being kept plump and happy by auntie. The report from Groundel and LS is that they are ok. I wonder if they miss me… My Kyonene… My Isis, Crow, Set, Kali, Roxy, Michita, Cyric… What to do, what to do…

BABY
Happy, using nasal mask 20 hours a day, mask-free 4-5 hours a day, stable, plump and amazing us day by day

HUBBY
Taking care of baby, looking for a job, filling out forms for government aids, making things happen. I’m proud of my mage, he’s been growing up, coping with things, coping with demanding me. Always keeping the focus of us, of his beloved family, of what is best for Deedee. Circunstance has made a man out of him.

ME
Sometimes hopeful and happy, many times feeling isolated and lonely. Being confined to 4 walls with noone to talk to but baby and hubby… The help is getting here, but it is not the same… Psycho about getting a job, psycho about baby’s care. Hating the weather changes. Hating some people’s cold shoulder. But what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, and this is not a picnic… There is purpose and goal, so the way will reveal itself in time. I wonder about the decisions, about if this was the best choice… But no question about one thing: Baby is better because of the care in here. True friends have been revealed, and hope keeps fueling my will.

Any questions?
