I don't need this crap right now.
I am dealing with so much right now, people who are not following links like this one have no idea what I'm dealing with.
But it would be really nice if people would try to take other people's feelings and lives into consideration before they bring someone into something they want no part of, nor do they have time to be dealing with.
But in case people are too lazy to follow links, here's the breakdown.
In 30 days, on September 8th, a Monday morning, I'm having a major surgery.
I have 30 days to get my life in order, to make sure all of my bills are caught up, to try and earn as much as I can so that when I come home, if I come home, I have money to keep paying those bills while I recover.
I have to make plans for my sons to be taken care of, I have to also get them ready to go back to school.
I have to find out if I can have a home health aide to help me so my oldest son won't be leaving school to take care of me because he's worried about me, and failing school again.
I have a mountain of pre-surgical testing to do.
People don't understand that I am way too busy, and mentally, I have so much on my plate I'm going crazy.
Every time I have a surgery, because I'm a single parent, I have to sign a DNR and verify my will in front of an attorney, so that if I die during surgery, my kids will be given to the right people, my affairs will be taken care of.
I have 30 days to accept that my life may possibly end.
30 days to tell my sons I love them.
30 days to make sure that my 38 years on this planet have meant something, that it wasn't a complete waste.
30 days to make sure all my family and friends know how much I love them and how much them being a part of my life has meant to me.
30 days to accept my own mortality.
There are people who need to get a new hobby, take up knitting or scrap-booking, spend more time with their own families, buy some golf equipment and learn how to play, take up bowling or something, just do something else other than drag people into something they want no part of.
I've asked nicely, I've said please, but they don't think it's that big of a deal.
It is a big deal to me because it's over, it's been over with for a very long time, and it's not fair, it's not right, that once again, I'm dealing with that crap.
I have a life I'm trying to live in 30 days.
They should try it sometime.

I'm giving you a hug over the internets {{hugs}}
Since you don't believe in God, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and your family.
