| A little about me: | I am 26y/o and have lived in Florida my whole life.I am the oldest of 5 little brothers. I got married when I was 18 and 10 months after I got married my husband passed away. 3 months after my husband passed away my younger step brother died as well. I started suffereing from anxiety after those two life changing incidents. One of my best friends picked me up off the ground and has been by myside ever since. We now have 2 children together, and one day hope to marry. (ENGAGED... wanting to make it final ... November , 2011... i know it sounds like a long time, but it really ISNT) I work as a x-ray tech and i am one of the few people that actually love their job! My grandmother died of lung cancer. Aug 26, 2009. That was what i would call a "different" experience. I have never watched someone die. We had a rocky past, so her death is laying on me differently than i expected. My mothers husband is surviving colo-rectal cancer. ***CANCER SUCKS*** One of my younger brother was in a motorcycle accident (4-26-09) He had serious injurys including a brain injury. He was in a coma for 11 days. Thankfully he is making a full recovery. We like to call him Titanium Tippy. Hes my "super hero". Everyday is a challenge. I never know what kind of news to expect when my phone rings. I have been through alot, and am willing to tell anyone how i coped. |

My Diary
Family Fued!
I just dont get it. Right now is the time that my family should be pulling together, making group decisions, and just point blank getting along.
My mother and father are seperated. Have been divorced since i was 5 yo. My dad has been with my step mother since the divorce. She has been apart of my life, for just about my whole life. My mother hates her, she hates my mother. Its been that way forever, and will probably never change.
Now that my brother had this accident and is in the hospital all of the family has been spending more time together. And now the bickering starts. My mom says one thing, step mom says another, dad saying something COMPLETELY differnt, and they all "vent" on me. Well, WHAT AM I TO DO?!?!?! There are times when i agree with one and not the other two, and visa versa. BUT, you CANT TELL THEM THAT!!!!!!! So i do the... yeah... hu uh.... oh wow... man that sucks... sorry... yup... and inside my head i just want to SCREAM!
well now the drama is getting soo deep that outsiders are being brought in. My brothers girlfriend, her mother, my brohters best friend, my OTHER brothers.
GOODNESS! This is SOOOOOOO not the time for this crap.
Any suggestions on what i can do? (other than drown my sorrows in bottles of wine) ;-)
