The autopsy said he had 2 completely blocked arteries near his heart so that caused a massive heart attack or a stroke. We went to his funeral the following weekend, we got home and 2 hours later got a call that DH's sister had passed away!! We knew she wasn't well so that was expected. His brother was a total shock. Then the next day I got a call that my brother in Reno was in ICU and not doing well. We went to southern Ca to SIL's funeral then up 395 to Reno on the way home to visit my brother. He's doing better and got to go home yesterday. SO this has been a bad month for us. I hope to sign up for Sept so will check to see when the deadline to do so is. Hopefully next month will be a better one!! crafty_linda_b

Still saying some prayers for your healing. Hope you are feeling better soon.
That's what I have to do. It does help.

Linda please take care of you and hubby. Your family is in my prayers. I will say that my July was in line with your August, we lost my DMIL and almost lost BIL, DH had to cancel surgery for him to be there for them. So I can understand a bit what you are going thru.

OH MY! I just caught up on all my reading and wow! I hope Tussy is doing much better and Lori backpain and back injuries sure can be painful and scary. Just please be careful with your decisions if the option for surgery comes up to, my Mom has had six and is looking at a seventh. She doesn't want to have another surgery, the pain is just so bad though that she now wishes she would of never had the first one. I hope your angels wrap you in their loving and healing arms and protect as you come back to health!

Linda I am so incredibly sorry for the losses your family has had to endure. May your angels bring you blessings to help you through this time of loss.

Tussy may your angels heal your eyes so you can come back and play with us again! I know it has to be wonderful to have such a loving husband! But I know it is hard to let others do for you, at least it is for me :P

Crafty Linda, I hate to hear about this terrible month you've had. I am sorry for your loss. It is sad that so much happened so quickly.

Oh my so much is going on. To all of you who are suffering with sickness and pain let's all get better soon. Do what we can to eat well, exercise and not let this get you down.

So many are suffering and experiencing much sorrow from the loss of our loved ones. My heart, prayers and hugs go out to all of you and my dearest and deepest sympathy to you.

We are losing my MIL to a situation we took her out of 4 years ago. She has decided to return to her old home town and to an old way of living. She's thinking it's going to be different this time. We are so scared and dissappointed she has made this decision but can't talk her out of it. I can only hope she will be safe.

There have been so many wonderful packages received this month. I think I blinked and missed this month! Its gone! I just realized today that I haven't recieved my SP package yet. I'm officially sitting on the bench waiting patiently! Do you mind if I join all of you?
