my brother

Before you can all ask, yes it was my brother in the news, and I know no more than you do. I told you all at village inn he was strange, but I don't see him going this far. If it is true, than it is so hurtful due to I have adopted 2 beautiful biracial little angels, and he has always adored them! He has always loved people of different races and background which makes this hard to swallow. It just makes no sence! It even stinks more because of where I work! On a total different note...I am having my PS this coming Monday, and boy am I nervous! and I just got all moved in last weekend to my new home, and still unpacking. I never want to move again. I wish I could make this weeks meeting because I feel alot of emotiional eating coming on more than usual. I broke down and bought milk duds. But that is all. Please keep my parents and my family in your prayers.

Your brother is in the news? I haven't seen the news lately. I hope he isn't in too much trouble. Yes I will pray for you, your parents and your family. Deb M

I saw that Monique on the news. I am very sorry that all of you will have to go thru what you are heading for. I cant and dont know your brother well but who would ever think that this would happen. I hope this is all an ugly mistake . We will pray for you ,him , your family and everyone involved . If it was a cry for help from him lets hope he gets the help he needs. Will be praying for you and your surgery this coming monday. Please know the milk duds arent the answer.grab a protein ball instead. Love you Jan

Hello Monique, I don't know the story about your brother, but I will certainly keep your family in my paryers. You know the media can turn a small situation into something really horrible. Whatever the situation, look at it as a sign of something going on within him, and his action was just a cry for help. It's not for us as people to judge your brother, but to pray for your brother. I will also pray that you get in control of your emotional eating, that's what has put a lot of us in this temporary "skin". Instead of eating, write in a journal how your feeling at that very moment and maybe the urge to eat will pass on. As for your PS, anything worth worrying about is worth praying about and anything worth praying about is NOTHING to worry about (if you catch my drift). Anytime you need to chat, Ill be here for ya!

Oh Monique, I'm so sorry this has happened. I just couldn't believe it when I read the paper this AM. I believe he must be under some incredible stress and this is just a sign that he has snapped. Please tell him and Saundra that I love them and am praying for them. I also am praying for you. Feed those milk duds to those incredibly beautiful kids you have and eat an apple!!! You know I'm always on your side, the PS will be great and you'll soon be glad it's over. You know Tony F just moved and he had some trouble with eating regularly and getting water in so try really hard this weekend so you won't go into surgery dehydrated and low on protein. Hugs to you, Lana
