My dear friend Bou is seriously having a very rough time. In fact - as she shares, these past few weeks have been a hell I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
It breaks my heart to know she is going through this.
In her post she bares a bit of her soul. And she turns off her comments. That's mostly because people are often idiots and she really doesn't need any shit right now.
So - I just wanted to let her know: I love ya darlin. We're prayin' for you and those sweet, sweet boys of yours. You are NOT in this alone!!
Posted by Tammi at November 17, 2005 07:28 AMYou said it well Tammi... I totally agree with you. Hugs to Bou.
Posted by: vw bug at November 17, 2005 08:00 AMAnd we'll all comment over here to let Bou know we're all thinking of her and praying for her!
Posted by: Ogre at November 17, 2005 08:02 AMThough moms are the strongest humans on earth, sometimes they need some tender understanding too! Bou, I am thinking of you, praying for your kids and sending virtual hugs from this mom to you. You needn't handle it all inside. You have a vast network of family, friends, and strangers sending prayers and thoughts up for you. You be there for your boys, we'll be there for you!
Posted by: Oddybobo at November 17, 2005 08:18 AMBou I am thinking about you and especially your boy.
I know how he feels for I have asthma too.
It's scary but you know when I have someone right there by my side while having an attack it makes it a little bit easier, knowing that someone is there for me. Makes it a little less scarier.
Posted by: Machelle at November 17, 2005 08:30 AMTo answer the root of Bou's questions: Yes, I know what it's like. I've written pages on it. And.it.sucks.
Posted by: _Jon at November 17, 2005 01:43 PMGood Lord, Tammi. I thought I'd cry when I saw this.
I'm slowly trying to put all the pieces back together. I've steeled myself to what is next. All I can do is wait. I think this vacation at my folk's will be a big help. Really big.
And thank you all who left a message here. It means so much. And _Jon... I know you know what its like... and worse.
Tammi- Love ya, Girl. You're the best.
Posted by: Bou at November 17, 2005 02:14 PMCount me in. There is simply no way not to instantly like Bou and, as such, suffer along with her in a difficult time.
Posted by: Jim - PRS at November 17, 2005 07:48 PM*hug*, bou. you and yourn are in my thoughts and prayers.
Posted by: amelie at November 18, 2005 01:10 AMBou,
You and your boys are in our thoughts and prayers.
Posted by: Dave at November 18, 2005 02:31 PMWow. Bou, as a mom of three, I have been around a bit, but damn, that's a full plate. I shed more than a few tears reading your post. In fact, I am still bawling. I wish I could take some of the burden for you. Seeing that I cannot, please know that, while I am not religious, I will absolutely say a prayer for you for answers and strength. You will be in my thoughts. Definitely.
