Well..
My theory that God gives you good things, and then throws in something bad to "test you" has proven to be true AGAIN. My mom woke me up frantically this morning around 10:30. My Aunt Theresa had just called and informed my mom that my Uncle Eddie had gone into diabetic shock, which was followed by kidney failure. My Aunt went to wake him up around 6:00am to give him his pills, and he wouldn't wake up. My uncle is a light sleeper due to sleep apnia. So my Aunt called the ambulance..his sugar level was in the 30's..which is really bad. So my mom woke me up, and told me to get up and get ready because we had to go to the hospital..I started freaking out when she said diabetic shock because my Grandmom had been in that A LOT, and it was not good..and then she said kidney failure. My Uncle Eddie is one of my favorite Uncles. He's very sick, but he manages to stay strong and lead a some-what normal life. He has heart disease, a pacemaker, cystic fibrosis, etc. He almost died when I was in 7th grade. He was my "sponser" when I made confirmation..I don't want to fucking lose him. He looked okay in the hospital..he was a little shaken up, which all of us were..we were there from around 11:45-4..he had to get a bunch of tests..I hope he's gonna be ok.. :o/
Life is REALLY torturous..my Uncle Wayne just almost died because of those damn aniorisms..then he gets better, and things get better..and now my Uncle Eddie is sick and in the hospital. :o( This is awful. His daugther's baby shower is tomorrow.
Oh yes, here is some good news. My cousin Maria (another one of my uncle's daugthers..he has three) is pregnant again. This will be her third kid..tomorrow is Roxanne's baby shower..and Terry is pregnant too..but THAT is a whole nother story.
Please God, let him get better... :o/
