Question:
Thank you for the hug, Leo……. From your conversation, it sounds as if you do understand how things are around here. Sending prayers and good thoughts to your Mama, brother and the entire family…… barbtoo
Response:
Many prayers and well-wishes on this end, Barb. Sounds like quite a challenge but also sounds like you are doing a wonderful thing in taking care of these kiddos. Blessed Wishes, KCat
Response:
Barb, How nice and what wonderful grand parents you are to do this. I am sure it will be hard,but once things are settled it will work out just fine, and besides that, those kids will love you for it more and more. with that you will find they too will help around the house for maw maw and paw paw. I am serious here, my grand daughter and her mom lived with us till she was 16 months and then came home on weekends, kinda like grew up here. Her mom was in school full time, working fulltime and weekends were for us with mommy. This little darling grew up wanted just like your grandchildren will. So pat yourself and hubby on the back. It is well worth every bit of mess you are going through now, believe it. janers

Hello Barbara: I am a Spanish boy whose brother has lupus and he is very bad. My mother has to be with him the whole time and hardly has time to make the purchase, since it is necessary to help him until to go to the toilet. Seeing the situation that we live in my house, can understand your situation perfectly and I want to send you encourage from here so that you continue ahead. A hug, LEO.
Response:
Hi Leo, I don’t know if I remember correctly,but I think you visited us before. Sometimes it is hard to recall everyone. I am sorry to hear that your brother is so ill. It is so hard on the family too. I will include you and your family in my prayers. With Kind Thoughts, BJ "TC" <evaris…@hotmail.com> wrote in message

Barbtoo, Bless your heart! The children will be so much better off with you and your husband taking care of and protecting them. Hopefully the adult children will get their acts straight soon. But good for you for stepping up to the plate and taking the responsibility to do for your grandchildren! You have my thoughts and prayers. We have my son, his girlfriend and her 13 yr old and 9 year old living with us and it is an adjustment to say the least. Hugs, Sherry

Please keep my hubby and I in your prayers. We have a court order granting us custody of the g’children ( 7,9,)( the 13 year old is staying with her parents) We have had them staying with us for 2 weeks now, It is a long and involved story…..but suffice it to say our son and his wife cannot get the children to school on time, or follow through with any doctor appointments,or give Haley her medications regularly, or keep them filled for that matter.

In addition, she must have injections of growth hormone nightly to help with her lung problems. (They sleep a lot,and there is probably some prescription drug addiction going on with the adults.Can’t prove it…..but it is obvious to everyone else ) The school is pleased that we are involved. The principal says there is a change in the children behavior already. They do seem happier. But, this getting up at 6:30 in the morning is very hard for me, and my hubby too.We are having to do baths, and homework, and meals at regular times.Just thinking of the added responsibility is overwhelming. But, it was the only thing for us to do. We couldn’t let this continue, for the g’children’s sake.They deserve better. Well, I am long winded tonight it seems…….but needed to whine a little.
