Sick


I am sorry I havent been on lately,I have been dealing with alot in the past week. Last Sunday I had recieved a call from my cousin in Buffalo,New York stating that I had a double death in the family. The deaths were 3 days apart and then last Monday I had an ovarian cyst burst inside me and cause me an excruitiating pain. It was 1.10 cm. They had to double me up on dilaudid thru IV. I have never been so sick in my life from meds until they did that. I have been hospitalized 3 days ago for having a fever of 104.4, and I had stopped breathing in my sleep. Good thing my friend has a key to my apartment. I have remained to stay CLEAN after all that has happend to me and Im proud of myself very much so. I have been through alot within a week. Stress is my BIGGEST trigger and I believed in my HIGHER POWER to handle it and he has. I am so greatful to be here today. I hope everyone else is doing great. I feel great Im clean no for 216 days / nights as of tonight. I am Seneca / Iroquois Indian and this is the prayer I say every morning to start my day, feel free to take it and use it if you like. I love sharing things with people. I also write poems:


O' Great Spirit,Who's voice I hear in the winds, and whose breath gives life, life to all the world, hear me!I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom.Let me walk in beauty and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice.Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people.Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every rock and leaf.I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy which is myself.Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes.So, when life fades as the falling sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame.... this is our native american devotional prayer that we begin our day with each morninme aka Sable Wolf

Thank you for that moving prayer.
My oh my, you certainly have had a "life on life's terms" week, big time.
As for posting your photo?
Not a problem for me, seeing an addict looking so pretty and alive is a joy.
