I just dont get it...
Ok i have been sitting here reading the furums this morning... and WOW.... I mean were all in the same place....sure some of us are a lil more ahead then others...but we all started at the same START LINE....we all want to get to the same place.... yet Im reading so much meanness from so many people....Were living in a world with so much meaness right now....It just saddens me to see a group of people with the same goals...hurting and even wishing bad to each other.....I just cant wrap my mind around this....

when I was fat
As many of you know I have a special needs son....who is in and out of the hospitals . Well he just came home from his latest stay and this was the first time I wasnt the fat mom It made such a differance...so many things I never realized... I was so much more of a advacate this time...I was not afraid to go ask for a nurses help...or any thing that I thought would make him more comfortable or even for myself....When it was time for his meds and they were not there...I didnt feel like Oh gawd...what should I do...I knew what to do and I did it...and to my surprise I think I was treated with more respect...or at least its how I felt on the inside and that all showed on the out side... And any one who has ever slept on a hospital cot over night knows how that feels when your 100 lbs over weight.....and this stay it still wasnt comfy but it wasnt uncomfy with the added OMG blankets dont move and uncover my big O butt while I sleep... After some stays I can remember being so hungry but I wouldnt dare ask for anything from the nurses.....what would they think the fat lady wants more food !!! This time...I asked if I could get some SF jello...or some crackers and peanut butter... and I was proud of that....simple pleasures being with in a normal weight ... I can not thank my Drs and Nut for the new life they gave this lady !!!

"When are you going to have babies of your own?"
~hugs~ Jim...so sorry to read this.. I was adopted at age 7 by the best Dad in the world..( the mom had lots not to like) but my sister and I loved that man more then any words could ever say...When he was ill and on hospic my sister and I sat talking and I wondered out loud...wow as much as Daddie loves us can you imagine how it would of been if we were his bio children...OMG....now that Im older and have 2 bio children and 5 adopted children...I can see how my Dad couldnt of loved us any more then he did....there isnt a differance in the love between a bio or a adopted child.....and for my Dad adopting my sister and I was one of the best things he ever did he would tell us....and for my hisband and I adopting our children was the best thing we ever did...God Bless you in your journey .....
