Everyday there is something new in our lives… whether it be a new job, extra money, new things, kids, movies, there is always something. How do we cope when things go the wrong way?

I am so happy that I have the family and friends that I have. Everyday I wake up and thank GOD for another day in our lives and all the people that have touched us in some way. I took my friend to have surgery the other day and I got up early and took her to the surgery center and sat there all morn and waited for her to be allowed to leave. That is what true friends do for each other they help each other out. She has been able to help so much with Brandon and my other kids when I was down and out from my knee it was the least I could do.

I love being able to help the ones who help us. I wish there was so much more I could do for people but things dont always work like you want them to. I try my best but with all the new things in our lives its hard to do anythng but take care of my own. I have been so stressed with all my knee problems and kids school stuff I cant seem to do very much for others.

I will find out Tuesday when my surgery is for my knee… I am not ready to be out for awhile. I will start Monday on PT to strenghten my knee before it. I hope it helps I need to be able to get around as soon as I can. Lately it has ached so bad that I cant sleep, but what do I expect when I have no ligments holding my knee in place? So how am I going to cope with my knee and my kids and hubby? I will have to depend on my family and friends that I TRUST to help me. I just wanna say thank you ahead of time to all those who will be helping me.

SO once again how do we cope…..we just do we have to we have no choice that is why the things that are put in front of us are put in front of us because that is how it is suppose to be.
