Visit with brother

07 April 2008
Posted by danusia007   in My Family I salute my brother
Overall, the visit was quiet. Not at all like that crazy time with the hospital transfer.

He did not initially recognize me (from the stroke, I guess).

We settled quickly into an afternoon of watching Space and channel surfing.

Supper was quiet. In the evening, we tried to play Battleship.

The stroke affected the game

because he called...

I walked over to Sis's gravesite

I find the walk there really long

I treated my self

a butterfly keychain,

a hat, scarf and glove set in beige, red, black and white


and another scarf, red,...

Visit with Brother

01 April 2008
Posted by danusia007   in My Family I salute my brother, cancer and ptsd, MY HEALING CIRCLE sometimes a friend
I am hoping to see my brother soon.


This will be the first time that I have seen him


since that hectic weekend

of transferring him from one hospital to another hospital


I am extremely anxious about the visit.


My wishful thinking includes

the hope that he can also see my nephew.


He has not seen him in years !!!!!

About my blog

This is basically my space to spill out everything I'm thinking and feeling.

Please note that some of the content here may be triggering.

What I write here is just me being honest with myself. Mostly just venting about things, realisations, and my path through healing.

There will be talk of CSA, SA, R, SI and ED here.
