Life can be such shit. (from Novemeber 2009)

Life was great mangable up until Friday.  2009 for the most part has been good to us.  I couldnt complain.  Until Friday.  So far this year I have almost completed 2 semesters (3 more to go!)  Kevin has opened two stores, with his company.  Aedan, Maddie and I had a fantastic trip to ND to visit my family.  Things have just been moving along.

Friday a door was shut in our faces.  We were ripped right back into reality.  And now thinking back 2009 hasnt been so nice to us.  Between my energtic little girl getting diagnosed with Lymes Disease and now this. 

On Friday we learned something that NO ONE should EVER have to learn.  We learned about Cancer.  My father in law, who is the light of my son's life, and he the light of his, has cancer.  I dont know how to do this.  Be there for my husband, my in-laws.  Most people are not blessed to have great in-laws.  I do.  They have been the parents that I have never had (which thankfully now I do have a relationship with my family, and it is a blessing <3)  even my sister and brother's in laws are my everything.  I dont think that I've ever said that to them, but they are.  They have showed me what a family is.  The true meaning of it.  The true meaning of unconditonal love.  The true meaning of support.  If it wasnt for them, I can say, I wouldnt be where I am today with school. 

I cant begin to tell you how sad and angry I am.  I do not know what I'm supposed to do with this.  He is a mess.  He doesnt look like himself (well maybe himself, but himself with some major weight loss)  He has no control of his left side of his body, thanks to that shit cancer.  He is not independant, and we cant tell if he will ever be again.  It kills me.
