Comfortkittie's blog: "Update 7-27"

I go out tonight to the store. I look around me. EVERYONE and their brother is taller than me. I never thought I was that short but seems like I am shorter than I thought or everyone else is growing or I'm shrinking. I even had to ask for help to get some Cocca Puffs off the top shelf in the store. Over the past week I've noticed it more and more. I don't know why it bothers me recently but it has. I don't wanna be the shorty. Most of my friends are tall too. Even the women. Shit.. my son's even 5 ft 10. 6 inches taller than me. (or so I thought) So, in my fustrations I get a tape measure to see how tall I really am. PSH!... I lost an inch. DAMN IT!! Now I'm going to go and kick rocks and pout....

I know I haven't been around much other than today but I've had a lot on my plate with my Mom being sick. I assumed today my mom was going to be coming home from the hospital but looks like it's not going to happen. They ran more test and indeed the cancer has spread to her live and stomach. She's now unable to walk and speaks in riddles. She's just a shell of the woman I used to call mom.. it's strange really. She doesn't even know who I am... So for now it's just the family taking turns by her bedside so she's not alone when she goes..However long that will be... So please bear with me.. Thanks and hugs to all..
