I'm really not an open person, well, it comes to personal type stuff. Course, it's getting to the point where maybe a few more prayers and thoughts could help.
I guess you could go back to end of Feb when my grandmother, on my dad's side passed away. The funeral was on a Wed, then Thurs night hubby's grandfather had a heart attack and Friday my other grandmother went into the hospital and they found bleeding of the brain.
Hubby's grandfather was in the hospital for a while then moved to a nursing home. Shortly after Easter hubby's grandmother had a fall and was taken to the hospital. They found other problems, operated, moved her to a nursing home and the Monday after Mother's Day she passed away. Hubby's grandfather has the beginnings of dementia. Most days he's good but it's getting worse.
About a month ago my grandmother had a mild stroke. My step-grandfather is a lazy bastard who not only won't take care of her, but still expects her to take care of him. My mom and one of my aunts have been trying to convince my grandmother to move up here (she currently lives in North Carolina) so that people will be around to take care of her, since her husband won't, but her husband refuses to move back up here. He's basically said that if she wants to move up here she can but he's not coming with and she's not getting any of his social security or pension. Course, my grandmother doesn't want to leave him. So that's all screwed up.
Then, someone very close to me... Her husband verbally abuses his step-daughter and daughter and physically abuses her. Not only just beats her up but.. They sleep in separate bedrooms and he'll come into her's in the middle of the night and basically rape her. And recently he's started to make comments about his step-daughter's developing body. They have a fight, he hits her, then calls the cops to get the kids removed from the house because he says they're in danger from their mother. And then she won't say a word to the cops about what he did to her nor show them the bruises she has. She won't leave him because she has no where to go. Last week she discovered he'd applied for a gun license. She still won't leave him.
And now all this crap with me... I mean, I'm sure it's just some minor thing, but this on top of everything else the past few months.... On top of all the other day to day crap that comes up, like me still trying to find a job that will work with my school schedule and hubby on my ass about finding a job and him paying for my school... Oh, and my mother is living with us until she finishes getting her RN.
I believe in the power of prayer and positive thoughts, so any that anyone wants to throw this way... It would be greatly appreciated.
And I'm drugged up and stressed out, which is probably the only reason I'm actually writing any of this, so more than likely this is the last you'll hear of it. But just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean your prayers still aren't needed.
