NOW THAT YOUR OLDER

What is the one thing that you find yourself thinking about more and more everyday? For me it would have to be of my parents passing away, when your little you dont think about death but now that I'm older I realize how precious life is and I care about them so much that I dont know if I will be able to handle it when something happens to one of them. sad

Wow - just yesterday I was talking to my wife about that very subject.

Yeah, I think about my parents passing away too... it makes me so sad. I usually end up calling my mom and dad and seeing if everything is okay, then telling them I love them. smile

I find myself wanting to do everything and anything.. Just enjoy life...

My mom is 80 but looks 60ish...I think about her time left on this earth. She tells me not to think about it because she has 20 more fucking years to live.. Bless her honest heart.

I have been and probably to a certain extent always will be rather morbid...

I used to worry about death alot of the time, death mainly within my family i started to worry when i was about 5. I come from a largeish family and we are all close I have 3 brothers (Graham 28,Robert 26 (maybe lol), Richard 22 and my sister Viv who is 31.) I am the baby batting eyes I worry about them yes and when i was little used to worry about their deaths and of course my parents (my mum is 60 this year and my dad is 61).

I think its because at the back of my mind I have been aware of death from a young age i will not go into it cos u either won't believe me, think i'm mad or disown me in general but anyways enough of that... my mum and dads first child was called Victoria she had cystic fibrosis and she died when she was 6, i think she would be 32 or 33 if she was still alive.

I was as i said aware of it from a young age and this i think is why i think i used to think about death alot beside other factors...

pray
JaneyPoos used to be it... then they changed what it was. Now what I am isn't it and what is it is strange and frightening to me...

I worry about my mom, she lives with us since my daddy passed away and now I am worried about losing her too.

I also worry about myself and getting older, I am planning more for my retirement and having a decent standard of living without being a drain on my kids. My mom has it all together and lives with us at my insistance not out of financial need, in fact she helps us out a great deal. I want to be in the same position when I am older, have enough to help my kids and live the way I want to also. TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL
I dream of the day when I can just pick up and go.

Dont know why as of late, I've been thinking the same things too.

I couldn't even begin to imagine what this life would be like without my mother on this earth to drive me crazy everyday of my life.

I find myself more and more involved in my friend's lives. I've known my close friends since we were in 4th grade. All of us turn 30 this year.

I thank GOD everyday for allowing me such a blessed life full of people that love me and that I love.

I know I get on my little brother's nerves sometimes because I treat him like a kid even though he's 24 now.
But as the days go by he understands it and thanks me for making him feel so loved.

In these days of utter madness and modern day plagues, I try to make the most of every situation, every relationship, all my blessings.

I think about making amends with my father.

That's the one thing I know I need to handle.

You guys are so morbid.

WOMEN: All you have to worry about are wrinkles and cellulite.

MEN: You just have to worry about getting a prescription of viagra.

*Deep sigh* I am at that point right now..., I have been here at the hospital with my Aunt for the past week. Since I work here, I have been staying every night with her and on the days that I have off, tend to her needs and when I have to work... I feel somewhat comforted that I am only steps away.

She's in a medical state at the point where she needs constant care along with physical support. She is severe Anemic (just as lately), and come to find her blood counts are all low. She was so weak last week while she was staying with me, was barely walking(actually fell)... so I took her to the Emergency Room last Friday night. With all the testing, they diagnosed her with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (blood disorder in her bone marrow), now she will have to depend on blood transfusions when she drops dangerously low... and we hope that with time the treatment they started her on with help stimulate new development of healthy cells. My Aunt is 74 yrs. (she is the one who raised me since I was one), I plan on doing all I can for her... and at this time, she is the most important part of my days. She sacrificed her life for us... now it is time for me to sacrifice mine. I will not have it any other way.

This diagnosis is a pre-form of Cancer (Leukemia), although at this time, her white blood counts are healthy, but too few.

I was always fully aware that this day might come (now it is here), and I know my days ahead may lead to some challenging days... but I will remain strong and love every beautiful moment I have with my Aunt... God I love her.
