"God Only Gives You What You Can Handle"

Well tonight, I"m not in the best of mood. I found out that my parents were in a bus accident in Switzerland.. They've been enjoying (hopefully) themselves for the past week on this oversea trip.

Frantically, my aunt called me to give me the news and she felt so bad. No one wants to be the bearer of bad news. I called my little sister in case she knew anything, call my older sister and my brother so I could get them to give me the name of the agency they had dealt with.. My Internet for some reason had quit on me this morning.. I got the information spoke to a few people before being connected to my mom.. To my relief, they are safe, battered and bruise, but safe. And for this I am thankful.

Now, I'm left wondering what kind of support they will need when they get home. I'm a six hour drive and with two little kids that keep me extremely busy. So tonight, I'm wondering how come good people always have it the toughest! By now, we figured out that we can handle pretty much anything so why keep pushing it!

Just a thought!

I so wish I had the answer to why these things keep happening.

Take care,

Donating Blood

Here are my reason why I donate blood:

1. My children
2. My daughter, she needed IVIG to recover from Encephalitis
3. My father in law, who required blood transfusions before passing away
4. My family
5. J and E, children my daughter's age, who need monthly IVIG to combat their illness/conditions.
6. M and E who had a stroke and needed it.
7. Cancer patients that has required it.
8. You will never feel as good as you do after you donate blood.
9. M and J who need it after being hit by vehicles.
10. Someone needs blood every 3 seconds
11. 60% of the population will need blood at some time in their lives
12. Just one donation, to save up to three lives!

This is beside the fact that I am O negative, universal donor, and my blood type is the most sought after.

Good Night,
Take care,
