My Three Angels


What can I say My Mother, My Son and my Soul Sister (SS) have been so wonderful! My mother rented a hotel room near the hospital and we three went out to eat and to the hotel. She did that so we could be close by and not have to deal with rush hour traffic from Clear Lake to Memorial City.

We went to the Olive Garden for dinner. I tried to keep it light. I had some salad, half a bread stick and supa Toscana (my absolute favorite soup), and I couldn’t help my self I had one Italian sausage. After all an Italian cant not have some Italian food before she cant eat anymore. I also had a bite of SS’s and Mom’s dinner but it was just a small bite. Very good. Then I panicked. “What if all this food isn’t gone tomorrow? What am I going to do??? I contemplated purging just to be on the safe side then SS said that hot lemon water helps the digestive process. I HATE LEMON WATER but I was desperate so I squeezed two lemons in one cup of hot water and I took it. I guess it worked the doctor said the next day that all went well and no one said anything about food being in there. Whew (wiping the sweat off my brow).

Anyway, mom and ss were by my side the entire time (at least when they were allowed to be). SS moved me into her den afterwards and cared for me, made sure I had a shot glass of some kind of liquid every 15 minutes, gave me my medicine on time, emptied my drain and yes she even gave me a bath TWICE!!! She never complained one time. I can’t tell you guys enough how much she means to me (even when she isn’t taking care of me).

On Christmas Eve my Wonderful Mother picked me up from SS’s house and we went to hers to spend Christmas. I figured SS needed a break anyway and she had a billion people coming over on Christmas. My mother was also a great care giver. Even though she herself isn’t in the best of health she made sure everything I needed was available to me.

My 12 year old son is so awesome. He was helping me and My other angels take care of me. He would bring me water, put on my shoes (I couldn’t bend very well) and tie them and walk with me. He is such a great Kid. I love him so much!!!!

God has blessed me with wonderful Angels the best I believe and I thank him every night for giving them to me.
