It's been a bad week for DU's loved ones.
Edited on Sat May-01-04 07:08 PM by Pithlet
I just heard Greatauntoftriplets' mother needs major surgery. I've posted a few well wishes for other's loved ones lately here in the lounge.

My grandmother is in the hospital again due to kidney failure and her heart. My 82 year old grandfather just cut off his index finger with a band saw. My elderly Pug I've had since I was a kid will have to be put down soon. Very rough week.

Let's spare as many prayers/thoughts/good vibes for all DUers and our loved ones who are under the weather.

1. Aw Pithlet, thanks.
Sorry about your grandmother. Kidney failure is a horrendous disease.

Also your grandfather and dog. Good vibes to you.

6. Oops, I just realized
I typed aunt, instead of your mother. I did know it was your mother; sometimes my fingers take off faster than I can think.

3. This is so sad. I'm sitting here finally with great blue skies and warmth
after an Alaskan winter and all over the place there are pockets of sadness. It shouldn't happen. People shouldn't be sad on days like this. I will think of you, honey. I am so sorry.

10. He's getting big.
And trying to crawl. He gets so frustrated when he can't, because he wants to follow his big brother. They already play together so nice. When I figure it out, I'll post some new pics.

14. They are so cute when they are trying to crawl.
Well, until they become teenagers, all kids are cute. I remember showing the triplets how to crawl when they were trying and failing to do it.

8. Add my uncle who had a heart attack this week.
And that will teach him to fool around.

9. Sending hopes for a better trend in the very near future!
Sorry to hear about all the bad stuff, Pithlet, I hope that the good vibes will help. Hugs to you and to everyone else who has had a rough week. I know, mine was last week and the week before, but the light at the end of the tunnel gets brighter and brighter.:hug: :grouphug:

11. I just found out they discharged her today.
She's just waiting for the doctor to show up so she can go home. So, that is good news. Thanks for the hugs and well wishes :hug:

Sorry to hear about your grandfather, hope he's doing alright.
We've been worried about y'all - it seems like it's just been one of those couple of weeks for you.
