With Tears

I wanted to thank you all for the warm welcome back. I've been off for seven months.

I lost my brother Kevin on Easter. All the boys are gone now, my angel baby brother Todd, my loving brother Keith who was always helping others out and with a smile on his face, Kevin who had a heart of gold and Dad who I miss every day. Hope you are all up there in heaven having a great old time.

It's been a rough few months. I got really sick after that and had a lot of respiratory issues with asthma so severe that I would wake up and not be able to breathe. Very scary. I read that grief can manifest itself in the lungs. I am better - still have a bunch of health issues but not so extreme.

I took a long break after the last layoff and it is time to start working again. I could use your prayers that I will find something soon!

Hope all of my ipernity friends are doing well.
