Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 Beki B. emailed another cf list that I am a member of in the beginning of Dec. about the reasons why she is suddenly homeless. It is a legitimate reason. And for what it's worth, I support her decision to uproot herself and do as she's done. The other list she mailed is a smaller list that is a bit more intimate. While she needed to tell someone, she probably didn't want her troubles to be archived in a list as big as cfparents.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 I just spoke with her & she said it was o.k. I wouldn't have sent if not oak's. She is thrilled to be starting over & her wish was , that it hadn't been necessary . The kids started school today (2 oldest with her) & it seems it will be fine. I even was able to get her laughing . Lets all be positive for her... & keep her smiling. She can get to a computer occasionally...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 I just got off the phone with Becky , the third time today. She assured me she didn't care about it being out there. She is so appreciative & happy to have others who are helping her & hopes sometime in future she can repay . Things are going g along pretty good. The dingbat school wanted to know why she was in a Hotel , so she is writing out why to take in with the docs explanation of CF. I think they want to make sure she is staying. She is!! That is her home town. She went to school there, etc. She is looking at apt.s But they are leery with 4 kids, She is going back tomorrow to try & convince this one it would be great for her. It is really close to the school & all. She will need help when she finds a place as she has no furniture , etc. I told her shopping at Salvation store has some really good stuff to start. Anyway. She got laughing again. & she NEEDS that right now. Knowing you all are here & sharing with her ..She feels better. Its tough & this lets her know she isn't alone.......... So, is there & ready to help her also when Becky finds a place. LOVE & HUGS, GrandmomBEV Re: Re: Becky B update Aw, well, we are all pulling for Becky B., anyway!

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 Good to hear she is doing well. I sent my check to the foundation today & I hope she gets it soon. I find this group of all of you have to be the best! My prayers are with her & her family.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 I have the exact ages at office. I am not sure BUT, 3 are school age, one to little & the highest grade is in middle school . i will post that in the morning ..Maybe someone on the list knows that. Remember has set up an account in the Milan Foundation for her & will be sure she gets it as soon as she is set up & not getting the help elsewhere or moves into her own place ----that is the goal of all concerned. She did however leave all but some of their things. Had just what she could fit in the car with the 5 of them. I believe posted the address. She maybe will do it again. I have that at office too. But her website also has it. www.Milanfoundation.org By the way. for all who might be concerned . I talked to Becky extensively about sharing any of this ...... Her remark was ..How great. I really do appreciate everyone caring. No, it doesn't bother me at all. She knows it is within just all of us -several lists.......... 1- -my toll free number.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Tell Becky B. that there is an organization call The foundation that will DONATE computers to kids with chronic illnesses for FREE.....maybe that will help her to get on-line. She needs support now more than ever! Rosemary in NY with 3 children (13, 11 and 7) with CF.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 GREAT. I will call her now & leave that message. She can get on line a bit at the INN . They let her use the office one. That's not in her room so it isn't as easy with the kids to go there & do this . She will get contact with them I am sure. Bless you. -She might even see on line here if she has had time today. Her schedule was pretty full..

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Bev, You might also suggest that she might want to use the public library. Most libraries have computers for public use. Time might be limited to an hour or so but, it's something. Plus, she could do it while most of the kids are in school. Please let her know that we are all here for her. She's doing an amazing thing for herself and her children.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Great idea. She has the 2 with her that aren't in school though . I will also mention to her. She is getting on line at least 2 times a day. In the morning early & later in evening as kids are asleep & /or watching TV:) bless you LOVE & HUGS, GRDMBEV Re: Re: Becky B update Bev, You might also suggest that she might want to use the public library.
