Blessings Upon You in the New

Millennium

Our lives have been brought together by an incredible journey. Each of you

has fought to keep your head above water, some for many years now.

My prayer for all of you as we face the future is that you will have courage

and hope above all, and that your reward will be peace in knowing that the

new millennium will bring us closer to better treatment, if not a cure.

We are connected in each other’s challenges, sufferings, and blessings.

Let’s all light a candle on the eve of the millennium to support each other

and as a reminder that we are not alone.

Peace be with you,

Dianne Smalley

re: I was reading a book

lately and a statement from it comes often to my

mind....GOD OFTEN

SENDS BLESSING TO MAKE YOU FORGET THE TRIALS OF

LIFE.....

,

I have to agree with your statement about blessings.

If I had not been diagnosed with AIH (Nov 2001), I

would not have had a colonoscopy, and the gastro would

not have discovered the pre-cancerous polyps in my

colon. I feel truly blessed that they were found and

removed before they could become cancerous. I believe

that everything happens for a reason, and today I see

AIH as a real life saver for me. A paradox, I know,

but I am chosing to make lemonade out of my lemons for

the time being.

Talking of blessings, one of the things people often say to me is that tim

must be so loving becoz he has DS and I have always said no, he is lovable

but isn't particualry affectionate. Just recently this has changed.

Whether it is becoz of his insecurity over his school situation or what i

don't know but I like it! he comes up to me and insists on sitting on my

knee (previously I'd have to catch him and pin him down to do this!), he

wraps his little arms round my kneck and hugs, he pats me on the shoulder,

or the best one yet when I was feeling rough and lying on the safa he

climbed onto my tummy, lay down on top of me, kissed me and said I love you

mummy, the first time he has ever said it, sniff, it hasn't been the last

either. 8 years old and he can tell me he loves me. What greater joy can

there be?!!

Sue,

That is the one thing that amazes me. people say that all the time Oh

he must be so loving. And i tell them " Yes, he happpens to be very loving,

but each child is different even those with DS. They each have their own

personality. They just happen to also have DS. " Most people are really

surprised and glad that I told them. I think for the most part people

really just want to know about, something they don't know to much about.

And who better to teach them than us!!!.

This reminds me if something that happened the other day ... I was visiting some

" older " women from my Deborah Chapter. I had Nic with me and of course they made

the " Aren't they so lovable " I said my usual " When he's getting his own way he

is " . Well , as I suspected, it was only a matter of time when he would act up

because I wouldn't let him run rampid in the lady's house. He stated screaming

and kicking etc. I looked at them and said " Isn't he so lovable " hehehe

Kathy,

You are so right about the health issues being a mixed blessing. I don't always know the reason for the difficulties in my life or my daughter's. However, I have never had anything in my life that ended up being some sort of blessing. Even the very worst of things, somehow have ended up as a blessing. Mind you, I have never lost a child. Both my parents are still alive as are all of my siblings. I cannot even imagine how it must feel to lose a child and I hope I never, ever know! I also cannot imagine not having my parents, but the reality is that most likely I will one day what that is like. Anyway, I do think that even the bad things in life can bring blessings. Sometimes we have to look very hard to find the blessings, but they are usually there.

Hi ,

I still question why we go through what we have to in

life but there is a definite reason, hard as it is for

us to comprehend. But God has blessed my family in so

many ways and I think that the relationship that I

share with my daughter at 16 is all part of the plan.

I truly feel so sorry for parents who are not able to

communicate with their children. Not only are we

mother and daughter, we are also friends! I too still

have both my parents and I know your fear of losing

one or both of them. They are going strong at the

ages of 83 and 86 (no longer does that seem old to me

but I guess age is relative. 50 used to seem old

until I celebrated my 50th this year!) Mom still

drives and they live in their own home on a beautiful

lake in northern Ontario. Life has been good to them

and they have been wonderful parents to myself and my

siblings. We need to enjoy our parents and celebrate

the time we have together. Do your parents live close

to you? Take care.

Kathy,

so nice to hear your parents are going strong in their 80's! Yes, both my parents live close. My mom and stepdad live only 10 minutes away. My dad and stepmom live in the next town, about 40 minutes away. My mom and dad are both 68. They are both going strong, as are both my stepparents. It is awesome that you and your daughter have such a great relationship. My daughter and I have always been incredibly close. We went through a rough time when she was 17. There were times that I didn't know if I would live through it. However, we both did and are now closer than ever. She has apologized a million times over for some of the things she did at 17 and the way she treated me. She has also thanked me a million times over for being so tough on her and for 'ruining her life'! We laugh about it now. If I was told once how old fashioned I was and how I was 'ruining her life', I bet I was told that a thousand times during the last six months when she was 17! It was, by far, the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I hated for her to be mad at me and hated seeing her unhappy. However, I knew I was doing the right thing by being so tough and not giving her permission to associate with this certain group of 'friends'. As I said, she now thanks me for that. However, you better believe she was not thanking me at the time! This child (now almost 22) is now so conservative and straight laced that no one would ever believe she had a defiant bone in her body! The reason I'm sharing this with you is that I would never have dreamed that I would have to be so tough on my daughter. Until around the time she turned 17, we never had a minute's trouble. Even during the difficult times, she was home on time, making almost straight A's in school, polite and respectful (except when we wouldn't let her do/go what/where she wanted). Remember that if your child is happy 100% of the time and never gets mad at you, you are probably not doing your job as a parent - either that or you are that one in a million who is lucky enough to have a teen that never feels the need to be defiant!

My daughter and I learned a lot during that difficult time. I truly think it made us both better people. I also think it will make my daughter an even better mother when she has children. She is going to be very tough on her kids as far as freedom and privileges go!

Take care and enjoy your daughter. You will blink your eyes and she'll be grown and getting ready to walk down the aisle! We are fast approaching the 4 months prior to the wedding mark! Nikki's first bridal shower will be Feb 7th. We will be incredibly busy until the wedding. There will be 5 showers, the bridesmaid's tea, a 'girls night slumber party that even the little girls in the wedding party will be invited to', a 'big girls' night out - nothing wild - just a fun girls night out, the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, and then the wedding on May 29th. Oh, also, there will be final exams the first week of May and then her college graduation on May 8th. Then she'll have a week long grad level class right after graduation. That will leave us two weeks to do the final wedding stuff prior to the wedding. I have a feeling May will be a Zanax month for both me and Nikki!

I've got a teenager coming over tomorrow to help me make some candy for the first shower. We are going to do a lot of the molded chocolates and white chocolates with mint flavoring added. They are soooo good and so cute, too. They are easy but tedious. So, anyway, Vita (this awesome 15 year old with 5 younger siblings ranging from 6 months to 11 years) is going to help me make the candy. I've also hired her to oversee the kids table at the reception. The reception will be from 8 p.m. to midnight so I want to have activities to keep the kids busy, happy, and out of trouble! Vita has been taking care of younger siblings since she was very young as many of her mother's pregnancies meant months of bed rest because she began going in to labor way too early. Vita is a great kid, very capable of taking care of little ones, as well as a good cook. I am very excited that I have been able to hire her to help me. She's such a sweet kid that she initially told me that she didn't want to get paid at all. I told her I would NOT let her help me unless she lets me pay her. I know that with six kids, Vita probably doesn't have a lot of money to call her own. I'm so glad to have her help that if I were paying her twice what I am, it would still be a bargain for me!

, have great time making that candy. Yes, teenagers can be trying,

but in the end, all of the struggles are worth it all! Have fun planning the

wedding. It was a great time when we were able to plan our daughter’s

wedding….such fun! NOW…we are planning for that new baby!!!!!

will this be your first grandchild? Do you know what it will be? Children are treasures from God. In my opinion there is nothing more important than a child.

Ahhh thanks . Yes, it IS our first grandbaby, and if our daughter

has a say about it, it might be our LAST! She does NOT like the sick part of

it all…but she is really excited. I know she will have others, because I

told her that once she holds that baby in her arms, everything will be

forgotten! So far, we don’t know what it will be….it is due August

9th. She won’t know for a few months yet…but I DID get

to see the first ultra sound. Her hubby couldn’t make it to the first

appointment, so she asked me to go. What an honor! We are thrilled!

Sherry, thanks! We just can’t WAIT for that little bundle of joy to

arrive! My daughter and I were at the gym at noon…after the

workout, I asked how Baby was doing….she said just fine…plus,

today, she actually felt better! I think the morning sickness is

leaving! She is perkier now and that makes all of us happier!

The one thing that concerned her the most, was that she had to stop her

antidepressant because the OB didn’t want her taking it. She was a

bit concerned, but she is doing pretty good with not taking it.

Have a great day!

Debby,

I'm glad to hear your daughter is doing well without her antidepressant. My daughter has been on effexor xr since age 17 and it has changed her life. I worried how she will handle being pregnant because every single antidepressant I looked up said you can't take it while pregnant or nursing. I'm sure Nikki will do okay without it, but I'm her mom, I have to worry! Of course, she's not even getting married til May so pregnancy will be a worry down the road! However, she's already told me that they plan to start trying for children after they've been married only about two years. She really wants to have 3 kids and I think she knows with her health issues, it would be better if she has them while she is fairly young. Her fiance says he only wants two so who knows how things will work out. However, Nikki has said she'd like to have all her babies before she turns 30 because she's worried about the rheumatoid arthritis and most likely ankylosing spondylitis taking a toll on her body as she gets older. ly, if not for college and such - Nikki would like nothing better than to already be married with a baby on the way. I know she will be a wonderful mother and I keep telling her the next couple of years will pass very quickly and then they can began trying to start their family.

What a beautiful message! Thank you for writing it! <hugs>

I also lost my dear Mother 6 days before my CI surgery in December, 2004. I

know she's smiling from above at the joy and happiness I'm experiencing

thanks to my CI, but I wish she could be here in person to experience it

with me.

Let's all try to remember the many things in life we've been/are blessed

with as we continue to support each other along the way.

Left ear - Nucleus 24 Contour Advance with 3G

Implanted: 12/22/04 Activated: 1/18/05

Right ear - Nucleus Freedom

Implanted: 2/1/06 Activated: 3/1/06

This is for you. Have a great day!

Be sure to forward, otherwise you will lose the animation.

---------------------------------

If you woke up this morning

with more health than illness,

you are more blessed than the

million who won't survive the week.

If you have never experienced

the danger of battle,

the loneliness of imprisonment,

the agony of torture or

the pangs of starvation,

you are ahead of 20 million people

around the world.

If you attend a church meeting

without fear of harassment,

arrest, torture, or death,

you are more blessed than almost

three billion people in the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator,

clothes on your back,a roof over

your head and a place to sleep,

you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank,

in your wallet, and spare change

in a dish someplace, you are among

the top 8% of the world's wealthy.

If your parents are still married and alive,

you are very rare,

especially in the United States.

If you hold up your head with a smile

on your face and are truly thankful,

you are blessed because the majority can,

but most do not.

If you can hold someone's hand, hug them

or even touch them on the shoulder,

you are blessed because you can

offer God's healing touch.

If you can read this message,

you are more blessed than over

two billion people in the world

that cannot read anything at all.

You are so blessed in ways

you may never even know.

If you are feeling blessed, repay the blessings bestowed unto you and do

something for others.

A blessing cannot be kept. If it stops with you, then the blessing will

disappear. The blessing will only keep working if it is continuously passed

around. If you are a recipient of a blessing, keep the blessing working by being

the source of blessing to other people.
