You did the right thing. I am so sorry that you were put that abuse. \n\nStay on the right track; and do not allow his words of "sorry" etc let this man back into your life under any circumstance. He is unstable right now and anything could happen. \n\nAlert any and all neighbors if they should see his vehicle around to contact the police. I know that sounds bad; and you don't want your personal issues hung out on the clothes line. But you don't have to give them a reason other than he is court ordered to stay away for serious reasons. \n\nThis man should not be allowed visitiation of the children unless it is supervised either. You need to protect yourself and your children around this man. I would get that in the works as soon as possible.\n\nHopefully he will get some help and this will cease. \n\nStop feeling low about it because you're allowing this man to continue to abuse you by taking on his issues. Be proud of yourself and thankful that you are alive today! Let it go and concentrate on your future. You are strong and I am so very proud of you. \n\nGood luck to you sweetie and God Bless.

Try salted pretzel sticks, Or if someone wants to be a sweetie, they can go buy you a Fresh baked pretzel from somewhere. My grandfather used to get these when he had chemo, but had alot of trouble keeping them, and anything else, down. Hope you have better luck, and you have my admiration for going through such a traumatic procedure!

I prayed for comfort because someone I really love hurt me in a way that I never thought he would. I was so hurt, feeling so lost and ashamed. So, all I could think to do was pray and pray. God DID comfort me that night-all night long. He answered me by giveing me strength and lots of patience to handle the situation the right way instead of getting him back.

I will add you to my Prayers...\n\nPlease, remember God will not put onto you something he doesn't think you can handle.  He is there carrying you thru these hard times.  He knows you can deal with it.  And know that your daughter & great Grandson & Sister are all home and in a much better place, next to the Father that created them.  :)\n\nSending my Blessings and Prayers.\n\nSusan

Everyone at some point and time will be faced with situations that will be considered the worst possible things that they'll have to go through. These are things that we have no control over and  make us all feel helpless and lost. Remembering that "time heals", slowly work your way to the point where the healing has begun helping to get your life back in order, which in turn will help take away the pains that have been put upon you. In most cases, the things that have caused those pains have not only hurt you but others as well, family, friends, etc. Helping others thru those times will help you as well and will give them the confidence they need to not only get through it, but will enable them to help as well. Some of us have a natural ability to reach others in those times of need. I'd like to share something with you that will hopefully help. We all think that our unfortunate situations are the worst, until that is, you've seen someone else that is hurting even worse because of theirs. I'm a father of 8 kids, 5 girls and 3 boys. Life was wonderful, we all had our health and were all thankful for everything we had. We lived on a busy 2 lane hiway and never thought for one second that something drastic was about to change our lives forever. The childrens mom went out to the street to check the mail. She was hit by a drunk driver and killed while myself and 3 of the kids watched from the front porch. Oddly enough, there was only one piece of mail in the box. It was from our local cemetary trying to sell burial plots. Our lives were changed forever. What we thought would last forever was gone in a second. I cant begin to tell you how hard it was for all of us. I pray that you can use this to help yourself in your own tragidy. With all of our family and friends helping us, we were able to make it through it all, not easily, but during a time like that, every bit helped. We had to cope. We had no choice but to go on, and we somehow managed to pull together and help each other. It's never easy and was by far the hardest thing that any of us had to do, but we did it. It still hurts every second of every day. As you can see, i'm here trying to help now and hope that somehow our loss will help you as well. Larry

I was once in her position and the most helpful thing was the love and support of everyone around me. She needs professional help and will not be able to get through this hard time without it! Make sure she is seeing a doctor about this problem and make sure you are there for her 100%! She needs to know how many people truly love and care for her right now! Assure her that she is going through nothing unusual and that she can make it through. If either of you are religious, I recommend saying prayers together and regularly attending church. Faith can help you through so much! If neither of you ar religious, just stick to the professional help and make sure she has a support group (friends and family) throughout her recovery! Good luck!

I'm sorry to hear about your illness, but happy about your recovery. Have you dug out your old "100 things to do before I die" list? That's the best place to start. Good luck.

your local hospital can provide you with the support groups in your area and there are also extension groups from there that you can get closer contacts with for one-on-one support.  sometimes your need a confidant.  this is a devastating experience and you need somebody to talk to. \ngood luck and you are in my prayers.

I was having congestion problems really bad, runny nose, weak, hard to breathe, and it was the week before Christmas.  I knew if I waited to see if I would get better I would be in trouble, because most of the family doctors would be on vacation.  Ha, they all were anyway.  And I ended up at an emergency clinic.\n\nI didn't know it, but I had pneumonia.  I'm asthmatic, anyway, and know how to breathe when my lungs tighten.  So I was reading, waiting for my turn, and suddenly I realized I couldn't breathe at all.  Not an asthmatic attack, just no air coming in.\n\nI walked up to the receptionist.  I told her I couldn't breathe, passed out, and on the way down I heard some jerk on the list before me with a twisted ankle belly aching, "What some people won't try to get ahead of someone else."\n\nThe receptionist just stood there, a nurse came out to see what caused the commotion, ran and came back with a doctor.  He straightened me on the floor and the nurse came back with an oxygen tube.  The receptionist was still standing there, holding her PEOPLE magazine, and the doctor screamed at her to call an ambulance, they didn't have the equipment to save me.  And she stood there.  He told her again to call an ambulance, and she walked away toward the phone, no urgency at all, and it was then, when I was angry with her, that I realized I was watching all this from outside my body.  I was standing at my own head watching the doctor trying to resuscitate me and the nurse was very urgent, and starting to cry.\n\nThen I was sucked into this blue light.  I couldn't see anything anymore, but I could hear voices.  Someone I understood to be my guardian said I was in holding, that I could either go with him, or go back.  I figured I was already dead, anyway, and thought I would just go, but he asked me what would happen to my dog if I went.\n\nI didn't live with my parents, I rented a house.  But even though Trinket was in my will and I had a guardian for her, my parents had told me if anything happened to me, she was going to the pound, that they wouldn't even take her to a humane society.  I had rescued Trinket from a shelter's death row, she was a senior canine, and the thought of her going in the animal control truck to be killed, and her knowing where she was going when she was within earshot of the pound was enough to bring me back into my body.\n\nI still couldn't breathe, but now I fought for the oxygen, and I finally managed a sip from the tube.  I was seeing the doctor from my own eyes again.\n\nHe later told me I was his Christmas miracle, that my skin had turned bluer than my eyes, that if my heart hadn't been strong, I would have died.

I am very sorry to hear that you had a bad day. Just remember you are not alone we all get them from time to time.  Now you can draw comfort in knowing that it is over. Make a nice cup of tea and put on a good movie to cheer you, and just relax.

Wow, that's a question I could never finish answering, so in short I'm just thankful that me and my family are alive and healthy, I am so sorry to hear of your loss, man that's alot to cope with, but just know that only God give life and only God can take it away, and you may never know why God chose to take his daughter back to be with him, just have a lit peace knowing that she's in a better place, with her heavenly father, looking down smiling at you. And know that God want put no more on you then you are able to bare, and although that was a terrible tragedy and no doubt you will always have so many different feelings running that's associated with your daughters death, but it's almost been a year now, no doubt a very long, hurting agonizing, and painful one, but your getting through it and that's all you can do, and God knew, tho hard...He knew you would make it so stay strong, hold on, and keep your head up, cause that's where she's at, and know that she'll always be in your heart, mind and spirit, her body has just taken on another form, she's an angel now and her spirit will still be with you through these holidays and the many more to come, and tell your youngest daughter congratulations and her sister will not miss the birth of her baby, she'll be watching and smiling at a higher location, you'll have a happy holiday and remember when the pain of your lost, hits you the most that's when God is watching to pull you through, I applaud you as well as many others that make it through such traggedy's, maybe at times you don't feel so strong, but remember you are and looking back... you've made it this far....LOL to you and your family.

LOL @ Pagan.\n\nI'm sorry you are stressed but you did bring this on yourself. Pray will do nothing. Take responsibility for your actions, keep your legs closed and be the best mother you can for your children. You are your own strength
