Hi there my friends, well it's almost 11:00pm here, and normally I'm sleeping (doctor gave me sleeping pills,not sure if I like taking them or not...) anyway, I was with my Dad most of the evening,he's doing better, but they want to move him to the medical ward which is loud,and he doesn't sleep well there, and I know he won't do well down there, so tomorrow I am going to talk to whoever is in charge of the decision making and let them know. He was down there and did horrible, now he is in a private room, overlooking the ocean and seems so peaceful and is healing, like what are these people thinking.. makes me so mad. I think they forget he is a cancer patient, with medical issues....I don't know anymore, but I do know that I am sober, despite the fact that my Dad is there, and my H is being horrible... the one thing that I can control is whether I drink or not, and damn that feels good right now... didn't think I would ever think that but it is sooo true...
I pray all of you are, or are having a great night,
Lots of love and Big Hugs,
lovedove
Has anyone heard from Jayde? I'm so worried about her...
Love-Dove,
Awww Sweetie! Your Dad is so blessed to have a daughter like you. You are doing great staying sober and "being there" for him. I don't know if I could do what you are doing. I think I would probably just shut down. You are truly inspiring in your fight. I will pray for you and your Dad. You keep staying strong and hold on! You are doing great! I am also about ready to go to bed I just wanted to post to you to let you know I was here and think you are fabulous!
Good luck with the powers at be at the hospital. Sounds like he is exactly where he should be overlooking the ocean and peaceful. May he continue to have good days with many laughs for the two of you to share! Have a peaceful night my friend!

Hey LD
hope you can talk some sense into the hospital - I worked in the health system before and honestly people forget that patients are people they truly do - they cease to see and acknowledge thir pain and suffering after a while.
Hopefully common sense will win the day. And you will be sober and able to plead your case properly.
You are doing great - sorry your H is being a d*ck, mine is too lately!! What is up with these guys? Or more to the point, what is up with us, putting up with all this cr*p? I don't know the answer. Just know you are not alone in this fight, your friends are here and we are in your corner.
I'm sure your Dad is so glad to have you there for him right now, you should be so proud of yourself.
take care

Hey Lovedove light and love, light and love whatever happens with your dad at the hospital pause when agitated, take 3 deep breaths and stay cool as your dad will sense if you are agitated by any goings on. The main thing is you are sober and you care I'd say your dad knows that, takes strength from that and is very proud of his girl. Give him my love and tell him in his dreams to visit NZ and take in the scenery, also lovedove surround yourself in a white light allowing your dad acess but anyone else who is sapping your energy negatively is given no acess.
Your husband is just pissed because suddenly the person he had control over via addiction and the drama it brings, is standing on her own two feet and starting to become her own person and not his.
light and love, light and love......
Light and love Zac

Awesome post there Zac! Hey LD, I'm so proud of you for staying sober and strong for your dad, I made many mistakes in the past when loved ones were ill and I couldn't cope and wasnt there for them like I should have been, some of them I can't take back now, wish I had been more like you then... Zac is right about your H (Probably yours too Idgie), once he had power over you and now you have the power over yourself and it probably makes him feel very insecure and afraid...but thats his deal, not yours, don't take responsibility for it, just be accountable for yourself. Keep keeping us posted on how things are... love and hugs to you and your dad...
GoodMorning Valarie,Idgie and Zac!! I finally went to bed around midnight, and slept all the way until 9:00am this morning!! felt goood!! Thanks guys for your support, it really touches my heart. Idgie, I kinda got that feeling about the staff, I think they just get numb to it all after being there for such a long time,and Zac I will take 3 breaths before I speak to them, because I don't want to those my cool, because I know that my emotions can get the better of me, and I certainly don't want to upset Dad or get kicked out!!!! because Val your right I want to share as many laughs with Dad as I can!!
I'm going to pray for the white light to be around me, and to let it shine on my Dad, and no negative people to enter it,and Zac I think I'll visit NZ in my dreams as well! My family and I have always wanted to go there!!
Big Hugs to all of you, and I will post later, going to be a hot one, I was thinking about going pool side, but I got abit fried yesterday! if I go I'll be under the umbrella!
Loves ya!!
