School is done

Ashley has finally finished school!!!!...I am so proud and relieved. all I can say is Shhhoooooo!

mom...

My mom seems to be turning worse. She seems more and more so child like. She blurted out during dinner one night to me that she feels lost in her own home. She said "Sometimes I am at home and I feel like I don't know where I am and I am just there, It scares me and it is weird, so I talk to my puppies". She doesn't remember how to get to simple places that she has been a hundred times. She seems to be losing understanding in simple questions, comments, instructions and statements. She seemed to be doing well on her vitamin suppliment but it seems to be fading in progress. I talked to my dad about what we need to do next. He and she have both been turned down for disabilities for army and social security. She has also been turned down for Medicaid. We are trying both avenues AGAIN. We are not going to give up. I am going to have to take her again to the doctor. The doctor I take her to is SO THOROUGH and I don't want to take her elsewhere but I may have to due to the prices and my mom not having insurance. I need guidance at this point in Wisdom in choosing the right doctor. Someone even said that if we could not afford medication, that we could call some manufacturerers of meds and they may be willing to send a few months free. It is worth a try. I will start my doctor search this week.

My wonderful Boss

My wonderful boss/CEO passed away on February 23rd. I am not sure what happened as we were not given great detail other than he had some kidney issues. My boss was such a wonderful unique man. Jim was a man full of great vision full of generosity and love for people. He encouraged people to set goals and accomplish dreams. He pushed believing in yourself because he felt you were worth believing in. He encouraged you to rid anything and anyone that had a negative impact or influence on you. He was such a down to earth man always willing to sit and chat with you like he had known you your whole life. He was so good at what he did because he believed in his purpose. He was such and accomplished man and he will be so missed. I thank God for having the opportunity in knowing him.
