Oct 12 2007

I dont pray often, but I have been praying constantly today.  I am currently going through Cymbalta withdraw.  It is the hardest thing I have ever had to do.  I have cold sweats, vomiting, diarrihia, ringing in my ears, and i have a REALLY short fuse.  I have huge mood swings.

 On top of that, my aunt, who lives on Colorado is dying from Cancer.  She started out with lung cancer (not the kind you get from smoking) in about august.  She has undergone countless Chemo and radiation treatments, only to find that the cancer has spread rampently to her entire body.  it is so bad that her spine is discinigrating <sp?> 

She is such a strong woman.  I had a bad childhood, and she is one of the main reasons why i didnt go down the wrong path.  I hold her up on such a high pedestul.  its so unbelieveable to think she is dying from this terrible disease. 

there are 12 children in my moms family, of which she is the youngest.  i just hope she can die knowing that she is my hero. 

i need to stop, as i am now crying so hard i cant stop and thats not good with the cymbalta withdraw.
