But I wasn't waving, I was drowning."<BR/><BR/>I can relate to this a great deal. In 2004 between the diagnosis and the amputation, I was just 24 and didn't know how to care for someone so ill, so drugged up, in so much pain. I remember one day he mentioned that we were out of bananas... indeed we were almost completely out of all food... and I blew up at him and told him I was working full time and trying to take care of him and doing the best I could. I will never forget the sad, sad look in his eyes as I spat those words. In that instant I was terribly ashamed of myself. And angry. Angry for not being the kind of person I wanted to be.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07923049494756911105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5792790978219902008.post-12316634095773281952008-11-07T10:41:00.000+11:002008-11-07T10:41:00.000+11:00Awww.

Every time I read here, you blow me away. <BR/><BR/>"Nobody could ever accuse us of being boring!" I used to say this to Sarge all the time, along with "When will be BORING again?! I just want to be boring!" I hope the mundane comes for you at last, at least for a little while. Then I hope your life is filled with crazy wonderful surprises. You deserve it.<BR/><BR/>XOXOXLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613907883139565991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5792790978219902008.post-21712585765083138942008-11-05T10:52:00.000+11:002008-11-05T10:52:00.000+11:00Awwwwww....Happy anniversary to the two of you.And...Awwwwww....<BR/><BR/>Happy anniversary to the two of you.<BR/><BR/>And holy shit.

There's a lot to be said for power, it gives you the confidence to do things the way you want to, don't knock it too much. I went along with what everyone else wanted and although it was a great day, I love the picture of you walking down the street laughing with your sisters in black and you in pink, and I would do things differently now.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00675811282678813332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5792790978219902008.post-43907026445082682622008-11-05T06:34:00.000+11:002008-11-05T06:34:00.000+11:00So lovely TC.
