Guest guest Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Lana~~ Is it out of your bounds to inform someone that she has written something that sounds like a cry for help. Perhaps suicide in the back of her mind? I read the below paragraph and it sounds like she is preparing herself to me. Maybe she is just really depressed and sick of being sick and that is that but I have been as deadly sick as she and I never thought about what I wanted to be dressed in my casket. >>I want to get better, and am annoying by this. But if God sees fit for other plans for me, I want you to know that there is a new, pretty, wispy pink dress in my closet<< I am no shrink, just caring friend who would never want to overlook something like this. Could you contact her husband? Doctor? Pastor or Priest if she has one? Debbi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Hi everyone, I got a horrible email from (Sis) that is scaring the beJesus out of me! Here is part of it: My potassium level has not been in the normal (far below...making things like cardiac arrest a very real possibility, among other unpleasant things). After blood draw upon blood draw. my 20 yr. family dr. kept doubling and redoubling the dosage of liquid 20% potassium I was taking......to a whopping 8 teaspoons per day!!!!!! It was just wreaking havoc with my stomach....cramping, burning, unexpected horrific gas and projectile dishrag, vomiting, not having appetite,etc. It took many phone calls yesterday (which I did NOT have the energy for) to get my VERY necessary Rx possession changed to a time released capsule form to be taken two at a time three times a day with food....and another blood draw at the end of this week to see what the level is. If after all of this it is still well below normal limits (and I'm talking <2.9 to 3.3, tops), Dr. Grubb in OH wants me to seek out a Nephrologists in my area to determine whether kidney failure is playing a silent, deadly role. I don't have the energy to locate one. Or even drive there. The closest one would have to be Dallas at least. I am also sending this to Dr. Franocomano Franocomano in the desperate hope of her valuable input. Tachycardia is my constant companion, and I faint often. There is an unsightly gash in my left knee from such such " floor licking episode. " I want to get better, and am annoying by this. But if God sees fit for other plans for me, I want you to know that there is a new, pretty , wispy pink dress in my closet............. It continues with her 'last wishes'. I hope to God she's just very ill and FEELING like death, NOT that she's CLOSE to it! I know that can happen, but I also know, that it CAN happen, especially if one's will is lessening. PLEASE, put on your personal prayer list, along with any prayer chains. GOD, I HATE THIS! Also, I haven't heard from Sue Ginley! SUE, ARE YOU OK??????? Now, I'm worried about her as well, AND about our own dear, sweet list leader, JILL, who is battling against money mongers! OK, guys, we have to buck it up and get the POSITIVE, HEALING, PRAYERFUL thoughts going, OK??? I'm begging! I KNOW I can count on all of you! THANK YOU! Love Lana p.s. I'm going to try to call Sis and Sue tonight! I'll keep in touch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 is also a very spiritual person and believes strongly in Christ as her saviour - and so in that context she has a certain amount of peace about her life and what's happening to her. I doubt that would ever take her life - she has so much to live for, so much left to do. I just see as taking some time to be introspective and prayerfully finding some calm amid the storms that are brewing inside of her in terms of her health. If prayer is your thing, please consider including in any prayer circles you may have at church or among friends and help her stay strong despite the trials she is facing. She will be buoyed by that and she will feel the strength around her. Lana, please if you talk to tonight, tell her that I am praying for her and that her list family is completely there for her like a soft blanket around her shoulders keeping her warm and safe.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Im not saying Im more sane than the rest of the apples in the cart lol but I too have stated that I want to wear this or that when I go? I have never been suicidal, just at times felt like death was nearing........ No one else has felt this way? She definitely does need caring people around her though...
