Today it may be raining outside...but in my heart, the sun
was shining. We had a great day. We attended a holiday brunch and ate
ourselves into an oblivion...ahh It was so good to see old friends and meet some new.
But, now for my rant...Let's talk about my husband’s
sister...grrr (this blogging thing isn’t so bad) She is the most evil witch I
have ever met. She hasn't even talked to
Ray in over a year and now seems to be the primary megaphone of spreading the
word of his diagnosis...Something’s I'll just never understand.... it sure
is sad to answer the phone and it be a childhood friend that Ray grew up with,
wanting to know 'all' about it...The first words out of his mouth were “Ray's sister
called me and......etc" (excuse all those run on sentences, I write like I
talk) People really have balls, he hadn't even talked to this particular friend....in let's see, how long??? Maybe I'm being too harsh. Maybe he meant well...but I wish friends and family would call just because they care about you instead of when you get a 'cancer diagnosis' or win the 'lottery'
I could go on and on about his family...but for now, I
won't. I'm just thankful for the few and
faithful friends that we have that remain steady. They take up the slack for
the rotten families that have been dealt to us.
But to sum up the day, it’s been good. Ray remains positive and I’m going on 24
hours without shedding a tear. So that to me is a win, win. It’s taking me a long time to get over the
shock of the whole thing. I know I’m on a roller coaster of emotions. I may be crying tomorrow or I might be as strong
as the rock of Gibraltar. All I know is
we have to take it day by day…minute by minute…We will get through this. He will get well. I refuse to believe anything else.
