Need Your Support Now

I know I haven't been posting as much as I could have but my life was hit with two major crisises. In November of 2008, I was notified that my Uncle Butch (who was also the family preacher had died) so I decided to move out of Houston back home to New Orleans. I attended his funeral and still haven't grieved as much as I could for him.

Now, comes news that my mother has died. It was on Saturday of this week or last week. My family held a funeral and wake without me being present or not even notified. I was in Uptown New Orleans while they live across the river in Marrero.

I'm trying to come to grasp with this but it's hard. Here's what you need to know about what's been going on. I wrote this all a few weeks ago and today so spare me.

My mother has been incredibly ill as far as her osteoporosis goes. She had a metal graph in her leg, to replace the bone she lost, and since it wasn't cleaned correctly by the house nurses or anyone in our family, living with her, it got infected. Bacteria has spread throughout her blood, causing her to go into a coma on Saturday. On Sunday, she went into an emergency operation where they had to remove it. She was far too sick for them to remove the graph, they put in her thigh. I'll call the hospital to see how she is now. So, please offer your prayers for me and my family.

All of my brothers and sisters are sitting here and doing a power struggle over who should take charge of the issue. My mother recently confessed that she had no life insurance. So, one or all of my siblings will try to add up together to get her life insurance. God this is too much.
