Decided to take a look around and read your story. Wow, sounds a lot like mine! Except mine happened 11 years ago. My daddy died on 3/21/03 from pneumonia. 3 weeks later, to the day, my 27 year old daughter died due to liver and kidney failure brought on by addiction to prescription pain killers. I didn't have time to grieve daddy's death. I was helping momma go through things and just keeping her company. I stayed with her for about a week then when I got home my daughter was beginning to get sick. She and our granddaughter were living with us. After her death we adopted our granddaughter and we basically started over being parents. Becca had just turned 6 when Steph died and our 2 boys were out on their own already. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia over 20 years ago but after my daughter died, it came on FULL FORCE! Very debilitating. I have a few other medical problems, too, but I can certainly understand where you are coming from! Thanks for sharing your story! Gentle hugs from one fibro sufferer to another.<br />Jan ThompsonJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14716126875762502476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3197184171948734456.post-58110748684595745582014-04-16T16:38:16.189-05:002014-04-16T16:38:16.189-05:00Thank you for sharing the hard road you've bee...Thank you for sharing the hard road you've been on!

You have probably helped people in ways you can't even imagine. Heal and get strong, your creativity and baking will be there, waiting for you to get back to it. You will find your new "normal" and will move on from there. Some days it's just putting one foot in front of the other.
