June, what a terrible thing to have to go though with everything else you're

been faced with lately. An angel must have been sitting on your shoulder,

luckily you didn't get hurt. The teenager at least stopped to see if you were

OK it showed he was sensuously sorry. I've never depended on people stopping

at those kind of stop sign in fact I wave them on. Just the fact that they

are waiting on me and looking makes me stiffen up. All the crying you've done

and the stress takes the wind out of your sail no wonder you're tried. Tell

your husband to let you take the day off. Call for help and get some rest

today and tomorrow!...................Flora

June bug,

Oh my goodness, I can't imagine all that you have, and continue to go

through. I couldn't help but think, like you, that you were indeed fortunate

to

have had a helping hand from above to move you out of the way. I'm glad the

young man felt remorse, and it probably scared him out of his wits and he

needed YOU to hug him and I'll bet he'll watch closer from now on. Good that

the

store manager also was there and drove your car home and that your daughter

was close by. Sounds like you are having a major meltdown and maybe crying

will be good medicine to relieve all that has built up. You do need a

break...it's not an option, you HAVE to take of yourself. Maybe you could find

someone to come at least a couple days a week; it'd be a good investment.

You just lived through the nightmare I've been having everytime I go

to the Superstore. Seriously!!!

I am so glad you were 'delivered' from this one.

Please go today and file an incident report with the police as well

as with the grocer. Pedistrians ALWAYS have the right-of-way!!!! Do

this for many reason. The number one being if this terror continues

to linger you need the documentation so insurance can assist you in

dealing with this.

Praise God your daughter lives close enough to come to your aid. If

it had been me, I would still be sobbing in my car with my body

trembling too bad to drive.

You have to be living on RAW nerves at this point. Time to yell for

help. Call in those recruits and give yourself time to recoveer this

incident. Even soldiers in combat have to take timeout...and it sure

sounds to me like you've been in combat lately.

What a terrifying experience. I'm just glad that you weren't

physically hurt.

I'm sure in your state you didn't get the driver's insurance info or

license plate number, but perhaps the store manager or a witness

did. The least he should do is pay for the lost groceries. In

additon to filing an incident report with the police, contact your

own insurance company and tell them what happened. That young man is

guilty of reckless driving and even if you don't press charges, he

should have some sort of punishment to remind him to be more

careful. I wonder if he was distracted by a cell phone, radio or

something else.

Once you've taken care of all this, lie down for a while and regroup.

Dear June bug,

OH sweetie, that is horrendous what you went through but I do

believe God must have pulled you away because we can't jump. When

we went to Virginia, my friend and I to Teamwalk two years ago, the

car just completely died on a busy highway and she said she felt

like God just got it off the side of the road because there was no

steering or anything.

I am sure glad you are OK and you just rest today and take care of

yourself. Thank God the teen was at least remorseful for what

happened, but that still doesn't change you being scared and upset.

BIG HUGS!!!

Whew! That was close. You will be no good to your husband in the shape you are

in. You need a few days away without feeling guilty. Even if you have to pay

someone for staying with him it will be well worth it. My husband went away

with my youngest son for 9 days. My daughter only stayed with me overnight

while he was away, but he came back so refreshed. You know I was happy for him

because I know this isn't easy for him either. A few days isn't going to hurt

him. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. Let go and let God, will ya, at

least for a few days. I'll be in prayers, remember that.

God Bless

I must share this with ya'll - my buddies

Last night I had a horrible experience at Publix grocery store. I was

walking across the front of the store parking lot to put my groceries in the

car and

as I started to cross - with my buggy full- a big LARGE pick up truck did not

stop where he should have stopped and had turned heading my way and he had

not seen me and he was going to run over me, buggy and all and I had no time

to

move my buggy with my groceries and I had to leap over to the curb or I did

something, I think God picked me up and put me on the grass as it happened

soooooo fast, the truck ran completely over all the groceries and the buggy

and I

could have touched the truck he was so close to me, I could just see me run

over completely with that truck and I would have been killed. It was raining

and

I just ran to my car - left everything in the street, truck, grocery buggy

all crumbled up - my billfold - I ran and jumped in my car and cried my heart

out - I was so scared and my head had a pain in it - I thought I was having a

stroke - I am 69 yrs old and I was so scared that I had almost been hit, all I

could do was cry and cry and the store manager had seen it all and he ran

after

me and the teen ager came after me and was so sorry he did not see me - he

asked me to please hug his neck and I did as I know he was so sorry. And I

have

cried all day today as I am so tired from not sleeping and then that

happening also, I called my daughter on car phone and she came right over to

the store

and drove me home and the store manager drove my car home and my husband was

so shocked and upset, but I am so blessed to be able to write all of you this

story. Love June bug

[Guest guest]

recommedation for you is to PLEASE listen to everyones post and PLEASE take a

couple of days off. June bug what would happen if you had a break down and

couldnt take care of Charlie?

I am so sorry you had that terrible experience, it sounds like your guardian

angel was really at work for you yesterday. Thank God above that you werent

seriously hurt.

PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE, take our advice and take a few days to yourself, you

Hi Sandy, you are the best, I will just tell you this.....Monday afternoon

late, I told my husband " in jest " that " look let's just pretend that we are

never going to sleep again at night and we will just sleep in the daytime when

his

legs are not jumping and thats the way we will survive and he laughed and

blah blah. Well, Monday night he and I slept all night and last night - same

thing - slept all night. What do think happened???? I will not brag too much,

will wait and see. Love ya, June bug

[Guest guest]

Thank you , all of ya'll are so sweet to me. And I truly believe that

young man will be extra careful next time and I am glad I hugged him as he

needed it I guess, even though I just wanted to go home and cry my heart out as

I

was so scared. Love to all of you June bug

[Guest guest]

Yes Ms. Edith, he was written a " warning " ticket as the Sheriff's office was

called and he did $500.00 worth of damage to his big black truck and yes he

was on the cell phone, he was a teen ager and the Deputy got all the info on

him. He was truly sorry and so upset also. Thanks June bug

[Guest guest]

Thanks Ms. Flora, ya'll are all special little angels for this caregiver.

Love June bug

[Guest guest]

Thanks Ms. Eva, you all are so right about taking time out, but I got to keep

going right now. I am going to hurry to bed now as he is asleep and I want

to hop in the bed before he wakes up again. I have hurt my shoulder someway,

it is so painful, I have been seeing our Orthopedic and thank goodness it is

not a rotator cuff I don't think (He said not) but I go back tomorrow and I

have been going to the chiropactor too that I go to for 47 yrs. Love to all

June

bug

[Guest guest]

Yeah, thank you Ms. Sandy. Was it you that said you wanted a copy of our

competition dance " The Hot Flashes " ????? If so please let me know. Lots of

love

June bug and I am off to bed, had my hot bath and linament on my shoulder.

[Guest guest]

Wow June bug that sounds great, I was really starting to worry about you. It

sure does a body good to get a good nights sleep. Maybe Charlie was going

through what a baby does at times at not sleeping at night and sleeping all day.

Maybe he will be back on track with his sleeping.

Sweet dreams, Love Sandy

[Guest guest]

Hi , thank you for your sweet e-mail. I just love all of you sooooooo

much and thank you for helping me out as a caregiver. Guess what!!! I have

hurt my left shoulder some way and it is driving me crazzy with pain. I have

been to the orthopedic twice and the chiropractor also and they are saying it is

from pulling on Charlie or etc. with the loading and unloading of the

electric wheel chair even though it is a ramp on the back of my car I still have

to

unhook the straps and etc. and this week Charlie had to go to the dentist twice

for caps that came off unexpectedly and to a funeral and to a law enf.

luncheon and to a football luncheon and whew!!!!! I have rubbed my shoulder

with so

many ointments and euclypus(?) oil and hot baths and heating pads all night -

please say a prayer that it will soon heal. I also have had massages once a

week on it. They say it is in my " Rhomboid ? muscle???? Anyway love to all

of you. June bug

[Guest guest]

Thank you Ms. Edith, I was just doing sorta what everybody else would have

done, even though I was hysterical and crying my heart out cause I just knew I

had been run over and I was up in heaven crying and crying but thank you Lord,

I am feeling a little better even though I have hurt my left shoulder

soooooooo bad, the pain is unreal. Love all of you June bug

[Guest guest]

Flora I am not sure, I have been keeping a diary every day, but for some

reason I was sooooooo wore out and had decided we would never sleep again that I

am just not sure but I wish it would happen again as his legs have been jumping

for about 3 or 4 days and he just went to sleep for awhile. June bug

[Guest guest]

OK Ms. Sandy, I will send you a copy of us doing our jazz routine in

competition in Orlando - " The Hot Flashes " , it is soooooooooo funny, and I am

the

worst one for me to have taught dancing a 100 yrs ago (back in the '50's) anyway

I

will send you a copy. Love to you June bug

[Guest guest]

Hey there Ms. June bug I cant wait to see your copy of jazz.

I am so sorry to hear about your shoulder, is it because of haveing to jump out

of the way of that teenager? If so I would surely turn it into the insurance co.

Its too bad that Charlie is having problems again. I am not sure where it was

that you live, but I do have a question for you. Does your state have the

medical marijuana? We have it here, the only time I use it is at bedtime to help

with the spacticity and sleep. June bug since I have started I sleep so much

better, just a thought. Love, Sandy

[Guest guest]

June,

Has anyone suggested using an ice pack on it? This is what is frequently

done after 2-3 days of heat treatment. Just place some crushed ice, or a

frozen package of peas or corn, on the area for about 15 minutes at a time.

More than this may cause frostbite. Wait about 15 minutes and do it again.

Do this about 3 times. Try to do it about 4 times per day, but 3 will be

sufficient most of the time. Hope this helps the discomfort.

Mike Gray (Probably no relation.)

Thanks Mike, you will never know how many times I have grabbed a bag of

vegetables...ha ha and put on an injury and you are sooooooooo right about

everything. It is a great pain reliever, but nothing has helped for about 3

weeks.

Yesterday I had an MRI (my orthopedic ordered it) and I almost did not make it.

I cannot stand to be closed in and I had to really cope with it for 30 min.

I will know something hopefully this Monday. Thanks for your help though.

bye for now June bug
