Bouts of Insane

Our lives have been different, but almost the same, we've both had our troubles, and our bouts of insane. A little age difference, say nine or ten years, but who can tell the difference, when it comes to our tears. Each has a son, that we are determined to help, each can't remember, when we have slept. Medical problems, are now hindering us both, but no pills do we take, they make us choke. Calls in the night, when one gets sad, calls anytime, when things get bad. Laughter, and giggles, so many we have had, to have such a friend, makes me thankful, and glad.

We always put our problems on the back burner when it comes to our kids, as should be. It is a wonderful thing when you have some one whom you can share your grief with, especially if that someone is or has gone through similar circumstances, our prayers are with you guys,Ron

I just bet it does Christy - I have decided to go back to Collage full time and get the necessary education (Which is kind of scary at 47) to open up my own re-hab (Our County currently has no in house facilities) and I just feel thats the direction the Lord chooses me to take. I thought you may be interested in hearing that - God Bless you and you and your son are in my prayers
