With everything that has been happening to me lately we have decided that we need to wait a long time to get another dog. Which saddens me because I was really looking forward to adding another furry kid to the group.
But I also learned that a court date has been set. April 2006. I know to some people that sounds far off but really anything can happen between now and then with it(the settlement). So that kind of made my week better. And I am sure y'all don't know why we are sueing someone. My husband was in a work related accident at work that could have been avoided if it wasn't for the stupidity of his boss. He worked for an air conditioning place and the boss sent him on top of the roof to clean an air filter out of something. While up there my husband fell through a fiberglass skylight that had been painted over and it matched the rest of the roof. And this is one of those tin roofs too. But he fell 15 feet head/shoulder first. That accident has ruined our lifes and it almost destroyed our relationship. Brad was in the hospital unconsisous(sp) for three days. The doc said that if he would have hit his head any harder it would have permantly damaged his brain. And Brad also crushed his right heel. Which needed rebuilt. And he lost his sense of smell and taste. All the time he was in the hospital his boss never came up there to see how he was. And this guy was supposed to be a family friends too.
So now Brad is having to go to college to get in a different field of work and I am the only one working. We do get disablity checks but they are nothing. So the sooner the better with the settlement.
Sorry this was so long. I just felt like getting stuff out. Somedays the only person I have with me is my 3 year old daughter and I can't talk with her about things.
I'm so sorry to hear you're going throught all that...I know hour hard it can be. I'm here whenever you need a shoulder...I have big ones...so unload when ever needed. It does you good just to get it out. It is going to be a long haul, but you've got friends here and we'll help get you though it......

I know how those kidney stones feel. The day before I graduated from high school I had one, and I could barely walk across the stage I was in so much pain. Then when I was 6 months pregnant I had one and that was awful because my doc wouldn't give many any pain meds. But he told me that if I could handle a kidney stone than he wasn't worried about my labor.
Brad hasn't worked in almost two years. But at least he is getting an free education out of it. In a few more years he will graduate and be an Mechanical Engineer and make about 100 grand a year.
Yes they must be very painful.I thoght my husband was going to rip the seat out of the car before we reached the hospital.They said his kidneys showed clacifacation, to drink more water.
I feel sorry for any man that has had them. Because they just can't handle pain like women can.LOL I remember when I finally passed mine there was like 5 of them. They looked like lava rocks. At that time I never wanted to go into labor.
