Old enough to know better
I posted that two weeks ago a very dear friend who lived by us and worked with me was killed in a car accident on his way to work.

Tonight I called my boss and found out that another co-worker passed away from Cancer Tuesday. It was a long time coming, but still, her husband still works with me and I just feel so bad for him.

My mom is the youngest of 11 and one of her oldest brothers rushed his wife to the hospital (she is in the late stages of dementia and Alzheimer's. While they were there waiting, my uncle started to feel sick, they admitted him and found Lymphoma all throughout his body. This was last Sunday, he died Tuesday. Two days warning.

Also when I was talking with my boss tonight she told me that two of our young Native American dealers were killed in separate car accidents over the last couple of weeks. I didn't know them well since I work swing shift and they both worked graveyard.

I went to my pain specialist today because they refused to give me my x-ray results over the phone (don't get me started, that meant I haven't been to work in three weeks because I had to have a doctor's note to return) so I had to wait 3 weeks until today for my next appointment. I have rheumatoid arthritis in my knee with a lot of calcification of the bones. I have to have an MRI done and then see an orthopedic surgeon (which is what I already told my pain management doctor LAST month when she referred me to a radiologist). This could have all been done by now but now I am bedridden until they figure out what to do with me.

All in all a crappy couple of weeks.

I treasure you all, and on behalf of those that this affected and your own families , PLEASE don't text and drive. <3
 
I think if my spouse was dying of Alzheimers, I'd rather just die myself. And two days is a blessing- no lingering.

(((hugs)))
 
So sorry you are having such a rough time, with one thing piled on top of another. I hope it means that you are due for a streak of good luck soon, to help compensate for all of this!
 
You sure are having a crud week, I'm really sorry & I hope things look up sooner rather than later.
Lots of internet hugs sent your way! You don't seem like one who would take to bed rest well, keep us posted on your knee!
 
Wow.

Lots of traffic across the shadow-plane between this world and the next.

Hugs for smigon and family and friends.
 
Thank you all. And Nanci, my mom and I agreed, this would be the way to go, no lingering and pain. And his wife probably has no idea what is happening. The good news is that he is donating his body to science, I was very surprised because he is a very religious Catholic and I just assumed there would be a funeral.

Kathy, my mom also said the same thing, I have had more than my "bad things come in threes" moment, I am due for a double dose of good karma.
