Sometimes ya just need a little 'media' break. :)
I do it about once a year - a month with no computer (except what is required for work), no TV, no radio.
Just face to face (or phone) communication with folks and books.... lots of books.


We miss ya @ninnymary

I'm sorry I haven't been on TEG for a while but I have been a little emotionally drained and TEG was the farthest thing from my mind.

About 3 weeks ago I had an episode while working out but thank goodness all tests were fine and normal. Then a week later a former friend and coworker died. A week after that my brother also passed from a heart attack. On the way to his funeral we saw 2 fatal accidents. Later that day my son was robbed of his cell phone in the middle of the day and one of the guys had a gun.

One of my gym friends is battling cancer and has only 5 years and there is no cure. Another friend had her cancer return. She had a mastectomy last Friday and the good news is that it didn't spread to her lymph nodes. Chemo will come later after her recovery.

In addition to my own troubles I am trying to support these two friends through their illnesses. I've never gone through trials such as these. I've been feeling like there is a cloud over me or a heavy burden on my shoulders. The good news is that I am on the way to healing and not worrying so much about others. It doesn't mean I care less. It just means I will do all I can and then trust God to do what he chooses.

I will be on vacation the week before Halloween and will be going up to our cabin where there is little reception so I may not be on here as much. I'm looking forward to having a peaceful time, enjoying the fall weather.

Mary
