You and Ed will be in my prayers.

Globug thank you. Be safe

Oh, darambo, what a shock you're dealing with. It's so hard to move, but it sounds like you must for your (you and Ed's) personal safety and sanity. I'll keep you in my prayers while God holds you in His hands.

So sorry to hear about everything you and Ed are having to deal with. You will be in my prayers. GBU

Darambo, you and Ed are children of God and He will guide you to your next place in life. Many of us here on C4J have had crushing defeats in life having to do with family but we must all pick up and go on with living. God bless you both.

Akan, Momstoy and Trynfindit thank you so much for your concern and prayers. What is wrong with a mother who favors one of their children above the others, one who lies, breaks into your house steals anything, and is a drug addict? Ed is the oldest, has always been honest, hard working and takes care of everything for her even fixing doors and windows he's broken to get into her house we actually have film of him breaking in although he denies it's him. Ed worked many years as an auto mechanic and she let him keep his 6ft. tall tool box full of his tools there before we got cement poured in the garage. Thousands of dollars worth of tools He went 2 days ago to pick it up and bring it here. His brother was in there trying to break it open, he threatened Ed with a pair of long gardening shears and then hit him in the eye, then grabbed Ed by the neck ( Ed's neck has been broken twice ) ripped his shirt up, at that point Ed was finally able to get a hit in and his brother fell and the fight stopped. His mother was at church at the time, we have the only other keys to her house and car just in case she locks herself out which she does, so he did break in again. His mother still has not bothered to call to see if he is ok. Ed left the keys and came home. Two weeks ago we asked ( and we never ask)to borrow $100.00 for food as we flat broke and needed some groceries, she turned us down, but the next day she Gave him$5, 000.00 took him around to buy pain pills and when he had enough of them picked his two grandkids up and then took all of them to the coast for the weekend. She called us when they were half way there so we could go take care of her dog and cat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a very small example of what goes on. So sorry to unload on you all, I have no one to talk with other than my C4J family. We will pick up and go on we have been married for 44 years so I know we will get by. Thank you for being there. It means so much to me. I guess I will close took up enough of the page. Be safe.

Sweet Darambo, I am saddened by what's going on in your lives right now. My heart truly breaks for you. There are many people here that will continue to pray for you. I pray for your peace and safety, mercy and kindness, guidance and wisdom, and most of all that you feel the powerful and loving Presence of God surrounding you both. Keep depending on Him, He will lead you to the place He wants you to be. (((((Darambo & Ed)))))

Rahrah1820 thank you for your prayers. I know many people here have us in their prayers now and it is truly needed and appreciated. Be safe.

Darambo, we are truly your family-by-choice and we have your back, always. Please vent to us; it will make you feel better and perhaps our prayers can ease your pain. Holding you close!

Thank you Akan, the gang here really is my family by choice and I think it one of the best choices I have ever made. Yesterday my mother in law opened our front door and snuck in, my son and I were sitting in the room at the time. She sat down and I tried to talk to her about what happened and all she said was she wanted Ed to mind his own business, didn't ask if he was ok ( Ed was not here when it happened ) and I told her we would not be speaking to Ed's brother any longer and we weren't happy with her. She got angry and said if that's what we wanted - fine and stomped out the door, I asked her to please come back so we could talk about it but she wouldn't. Got a hold of Ed, he came home knowing something was wrong. explained what happened, thought he would be mad, all he said was she should be glad he wasn't home. Said he would not have been as nice as I was. I did not yell, curse or even be rude. Don't know what else I could have done. We are just devistated, don't understand. Ed sent his mother an E mail, had me read it before he sent it, in it he made a statement about how he would be no where with out me. Made me cry, I truly realized just how much I meant to him( our son also ) after all these years. Thanks for the prayers and for holding me close. Be safe.

Darambo, of course you should take however much of the page as you need. Sometimes yoy just need to let all your feelings out and know that someone is listening. We know that God is always listening and yet we still need that human touch, and voice. An old statement I heard once that says it best for me is "sometimes I need someone with skin on." You can't really touch our skin any better than you can touch God's skin. But through our words you can know others hearts are there for you and with you. God bless.

Nlbuchanan thank you, that was beautiful and I truly appreciate it. All these wonderful thoughts from all my puzzle buddies have made me more accepted than I ever have. You people are the best!!!! Be safe.

Lovely, nlb, and so true. Thank you.

Hi elijah13: Yes. it is beautiful. As you can tell from my flag, I am of Swiss heritage, and have traveled back to where my family comes from, which is quite near Thun. Photos can't do it justice!!

Loved Switzerland when I was visiting there. One of the few peaceful countries!

Hi Jan - glad you liked it :) We are about 17 hours ahead of your time depending on what part of the USA you are in. So we are usually up and running when you are sleeping and vice versa. I lived over there for eight years, two in Canada (Hamilton Ontario) and six in Louisiana and Texas. Hugs back.
