Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Tracie: I am still reading, every message, every day on the site, and am amazed at the way all of you can answer others needs and still be in such shape yourself. I think about Steve everyday, and how useless his death was. He was so young, and was suppose to outlive his Mom, not the other way around. He was in horrible shape, physical, financial and you name it. He was in a position where I, his mother, had to clean him up after a BM, and rub his legs at night when the pain was so bad, the morphine wouldn'nt touch it, and he would wake up screaming with the pain. Sure the meds were taken care of by Medicare and Medicaid, but there are all kinds of programs that help with drugs, you just have to do research to find them. Steve didn't have any extra money to spend for a Dairy Queen treat, or to pay for his car models to put together, but he did managed to find enough to buy a model for his 9 year old friend to put together. The pain didn't seem so bad when the two of them were working together. I have a lot of respect for you, Tracie, to try to help everyone, when you need help yourself. I will pray for all of you, and worry about those of you: Rose,Kim and all the rest who haven't been writing. Shirley (Steve's Mom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
