Hello people. After not having been on here for a few years now I decided to check this place out again. For all of you who remember me I am sorry to say that we lost my youngest daughter Kayla(the one who cerebal palsy from lack of oxygen at birth) on Mother's Day last year 05/12/2019 so almost a year and a half now. Just days after she was born they had told us she probably would only live to be about 2 or 3 years old, we had her for 27 years. Her birthday was October 8th so we just got past what would have been her 29th birthday, and I of course did not make it through that day without a lot of tears.
Our oldest Ashley is now 30 and still lives with us. She just started in September with college, all her courses are online and so far she is doing great, She's taking a liberal arts transfer program.
My husband just went back to work in September after being laid off since March due to Covid.
So how is everyone doing on here?

@valerie37 That is all that should be expected from you! I am the same way with dealing with my mother who has ALZ. She went to a nursing home at the beginning of September. I just couldn't do it any longer and stay sane myself.

Thank you Michelle. I'm taking it one day at a time. I did go through a really bad bout with my depression for awhile.

Welcome back and I am so sorry to hear about Kayla.
I have been super busy, I ended up going back to work and only came here because I noticed the email that said you were following me. So hello new friend and goodbye, I have to get ready for work.
