Hard Times

Things aren't going well for poor Shirley. Headache is still not gone. Mike called me last night trying to get in touch with her doctors. I'm so grateful he looks to me for help. I mean what else am I good for. Unfortunately doctors don't like that. So Teresa is not allowed to call doctors anymore. It's that Hipa thing. I'm o.k. with that. I will find another job.

Shirley's head hurts, her stomach hurts, she sleeps a lot. According to the doctors we just need to get her medication under control. And we will. Just the thought of this many days of pain for her makes me sick. I am going to have very positive thoughts today and pray for her that this is the day we make a turn around. And this weekend she starts feeling a little better.

Mom went up and checked on her last night and nobody knows you better than your mom and she assured us that Shirley was o.k. for now. So that made us all feel better.

Thank you Commenters and Classmates of Shirley. You guys will never, ever know how much these comments help. I hope someday I can see you and tell you in person how much that means to me. I do this blog for you all to get updates on this amazing person but also to get you all to pray for her and I know that you guys are coming through for me. Thank you.

I told my son last night that the one thing that I will always remember is how many comments in my lifetime I heard about Shirley's beautiful long red hair. Strangers would comment about it. Well she doesn't have that right now, but she is living proof that hair does not make the person.

The last thing I can say today is PRAY PRAY PRAY PRAY. Dear Lord, take her pain away. I know she is in your hands and you have your own plans for Shirley, but please take her pain away. Hold her and comfort her.

Love, Teresa
