Things just can't seem to be going all that good lately. Chris and I have really been disappointed in people lately and it is just something that is not easy to get over. I wonder why people act the way the do all the time. Max got a dirt bike for his birthday on August 3rd. He went outside to sit on it yesterday only to discover someone had stolen it. I am just beside myself with disgust. The audacity it takes to steal from a 6year old is really something else.
Then on a larger scale of disappointment, one of my dearest friends is going through a very difficult time. Her husband was rushed into surgery yesterday to remove a growth in his brain the size of a golf ball. I have had everyone I know praying for them. She called me at 4:30 to say all was well and then by 5:30 things were not looking so good. I am praying and praying that all goes well.
This has been a really tough year for us, me loosing my grandparents, floods, power outages, broken legs, and I am sure there is more I just can't think of right this second. I am happy to say in this time God has really let us know about people, support, love and many more. I know I have personally changed a ton this year and I am wondering who we will be on the other side of this. I can't deal with another heart break right now. Christa and Matt are some of finest people in the world. Matt is a pastor and father of two beautiful girls. Christa is a strong, beautiful, adoring wife. I know God has a plan for them and I just hope for the miracle we are looking and praying for.

Thanks for your comments I will keep them in mind.
You are correct about many things ie) the ring (That was not too bright).
Every effort I have made to patch things up have been rejected.
After giving out over $200,000 that was left to me. They accuse me of stealing. Human nature being what it is the tendency is to strike back when you are attacked. I'll have to work on not doing that.
I have talked to 2 shrinks on this subject and they both said this is common after a death or divorce of a mother. One said " be prepared they may never talk to you again !" He was correct.
Please don't post this it would just fan the flames.
Hi Duvall, this is Tina. You are brilliant. You understand the situation, perfectly. A few parts are not quite right, but you were spot on with the children's and the father's feelings. I just want you to understand that I have never met several members of Ray's family...and I would do anything to have the family just talk to one another. There is only one son I have talked with for more than a few moments. I certainly said more than I should have in the posts, however, I've bottled this up for four years. I have tried to say what you said...to Ray...but there is so much animosity here it's most difficult. I would like to add that there are two sides to every story. Thanks for your input.
You are very kind to give this as much thought as you have. I really appreciate everything. I'm sorry that your grandmother passed, however it was good that she had you nearby. You must have been a great comfort to her.
Tina
