Guest guest Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 ((((((((((((gathering Lynn in my arms for a group hug)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) ~~~~~~~~~~ Namaste Anya ----- Original Message ----- From: Lynn Esty Honey, you are starting to scare me. Read Janet Evanovich in order.... they are easy to do - they have the numbers in the title. I have two books up by my bed. The new one by Dan Brown - Deception Point. I have only made it past the first two chapters as I keep falling asleep in the afternoon instead of reading. Call your library. People who were housebound, we delivered their books to them. A volunteer can do it. Just tell them which books you would like and see if they will drop them off for you. Could be a new service you help them establish. Trying to get my health back - what little I can. I need to start eating and caring for myself more. My therapist is going to have a field day tomorrow - I haven't been able to do much of anything. In the process of filling out this damn disability paperwork I found out that my whole life is a lie. My parents were very true when they told me as a teen they never wanted me. That is further confirmed by reports from when I was a baby. What parent - who already has a child - would need to be told by the pediatrician to add more daily feedings to their underweight and crying baby. And who would wait for a baby to 'get over' a 103 temperature for three days before taking her to the hospital at 3 months old to be diagnosed with pneumonia. Hello. I have decided that suicide is never an option. My being alive is more spiteful to them that finishing the job they were to chicken to finish. Sorry. Bad day to end a bad week. Bad life. Oh, well.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Oh Lynn, I want to hug you so badly. Don't hold it against your parents. Better to thrive. I am so grateful that I've had this opportunity to get to know you a little, even if it is only through our e-mail. This is also how I got to meet the love of my life and married him, so I hold a lot of value to e-mail. Success is always the best revenge. Show them how wonderful your life can be. And it will be no matter what the medical situation. Life is what we make of it and becomes what we mold it into. It's kind've like clay. If an artist wants to make some piece of pottery but has arthritic hands, his work (no matter how it may look to others) is still his pride and joy. This is what he created and it will always be beautiful to him. You are a precious dear and I feel honored to have this chance to get to know you and everyone else on this list. giant gentle mega hugs, Norah ----- Original Message ----- From: Lynn Esty Honey, you are starting to scare me.
