Massive Stress!!! Please think of me...

[Guest guest]

Okay, I didn't want to unload on everyone here which is why I haven't been

posting or even reading much of late. Right now, the reason why is because

my life has suddenly changed 180 degrees.

Long story short, my 18-yr-old niece has moved in with my parents and I with

her 20 month and 8 month old babies. The reason has to do with an abusive

situation she was in, toward her primarily and the 8 month old.

As a result, my ability to concentrate on eating right has taken a back seat. I

have gone from being a now and then aunt who babysits to taking care of

babies in rotation with my parents. She hasn't been much help. We are having

not only to take care of her kids, but trying to help her through this horrible

mess.

The children will be living with us for a long time. And, if something should

happen to my parents that means I will be their primary caregiver.

So, this is my request. Please pray, think of or whatever it is that each of you

might do when thinking of someone who needs help. I have my faith to

sustain me, but I need support for myself too. Which is exactly why I am here.

Thanks for listening and caring,
