Update:
Went to the doctor today, with my wonderful husband at my side. The doctor did a a1c test which is supposed to give my average glucose levels for the last 3 months. That should give a better indication of what exactly is going on with me.
She agrees with us that she doesn't think it was a seizure like the ER doctor thought and is fairly certain that it was the low glucose levels that caused me to pass out. She is also doing some kind of blood test for my thyroid and all of those
So, I had promised a couple of people that I would post a blog about what had happened to me last night.
I was simply sitting here, talking and laughing with my husband. I was on the couch, he was on his chair and suddenly he said I just collapsed and somehow ended up on my stomach on the floor, out cold and completely unresponsive.
Scary stuff... but I don't remember any of that, I only know what I was told later. He rushed over to me and I was breathing, but no matter how much he sa
After the conclusion of my story Joined by Blood, I was asked by another author and friend, Nephylim, if she could "interview" Damian. I thought it sounded like a neat idea and agreed. That was months ago. Just recently, I was going through old files and found the completed interview. I am posting it here for your enjoyment.
SPOILER: If you have yet to read Joined by Blood, I would recommend you do so prior to reading Damian's interview as it contains some distinctive spoilers for the s
Since I have posted in my blog about what's been going on with my brother, I figured with the news I received today that it might just be time to make yet another post. (For those of you who are reading this for the first time, my brother was diagnosed in December with Stage 4 Leukemia)
My brother has just finished going through his third round of Chemo, he's expected to be at the halfway point as they only figured they would need six rounds of the Chemo. They did some new tests on him to
So, I'm feeling a bit whiny at the moment, so please forgive me. On the heels of the good news regarding my brother and of being asked to be my best friends matron of honor I got bad news from my eye doctor.... Well, it wasn't good news at least.
Went to the eye doctor today for my regular check up. I needed new glasses anyways as I'm tired of fixing my current ones with gorilla glue. Figured it would go like normal, that he'd tell me that my prescription changed a little bit, but not a w
You know, I've been doing a lot of thinking today. Since my brother's diagnosis back in December, I've really had to redefine what my definition of family is. I'm not so much talking about brothers, sisters, parents, and really not even grandparents. Now, all of those other extended "family" are where my thoughts have turned to. All those cousins, aunts, uncles and the extended family with few exceptions.
What many of you know, and some of you may not know, I lost my second oldest broth
So, the title says it all, I'm annoyed and frustrated. At myself more than anything else at this point. I sit here day after day and try and write. I pull up one story after another and every single one I just stare at for a few minutes before moving onto another one. No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to write. Well, at least nothing worth reading.
I have been determined that I was going to get some stories out this year and I've got so many good starts, but that's all they ar
The last few months have been interesting to say the least and the ending of 2012 was not in the least what I was expecting. As anyone who reads my blog already knows, the first part of December my brother was diagnosed with 4th stage Leukemia. Let me tell you, that really threw me for a loop. He is fighting and has already gone through his first two rounds of Chemotherapy and with any luck, he'll only have four more rounds to go. He wasn't doing too bad after the first round, but the second
Well, with everything going on with my brother, the holidays were looking to be anything but relaxing. None of us wanted to go through Christmas waiting to hear the latest results, but at the same time, we weren't sure that we wanted the results before Christmas. Anyways. My brother let us know that they got his FISH results back and it's NOT the two really really bad ones that don't respond to Chemo. It's not the optimum one that has a really high success rate, but it is more of a general c
Hello all, first off let me say thank you to everyone for the kind words and support. I appreciate it more than I can say and it makes me so grateful to be part of such an awesome community. With that being said, with the news I got today it cements the fact that I am unsure when I will be returning to GA full time. As such, if you post a review, send me a PM, or any other form of communication, if I don't get back to you immediately, it is not that I am ignoring you. Now, onto the update.
As I’m sure many have seen, I have temporarily turned my Anthology duties over to Cia. So, if anyone who is planning to participate in the upcoming Anthologies, please contact her for any help you may require. Now, onto the reasoning behind the changes.
My family received some not so good news yesterday and honestly, I am not doing so great with it. My oldest brother was diagnosed with lymphoma. We do not know all the details yet and the not knowing making it even scarier. He will be go
First off, i want to apologize to everyone who is reading Forging Trust. I never planned to have this long of a delay between postings and it's driving me nuts. I have some of Chapter 9 written (part of it is handwritten at this point) but things have been so hectic lately. Also, there's something off on the current chapter. I thought maybe it was just me, but I sent it to Cia to look at it and she agrees that there's something in it that needs fixed. I am working on it, I just didn't want
So, in the last week, mine and my hubby's past have seemed to make themselves known. Just a few days ago I ran into my ex mother-in-law and oh boy was that awkward, but so not the reason I'm writing this blog. LOL.
Anyways. If you read my status update, you already know that hubby and I went to a Joe Diffie / Sammy Kershaw concert. We had a great time, but it was certainly not without it's moments.
First off, the first area we were standing there were a lot of obnoxious drunks in fro
You know, some people absolutely amaze me, and I don't even know why I'm surprised by this specific persons actions. Most of you who know me know that I do not get along with part of my hubby's family, most notable is two of his sisters. One of them is nothing but a user. She barely talks to my hubby most of the time, until she wants something.
Within a week of us buying our house, she asked my husband for $500 for a boat that she not only didn't need, she didn't have a place to store it
I have currently started to work on the final book in the Encounter's series. Everlasting Encounters should be coming out in the near future, but it has raised some issues with the previous books in the series.
It's amazing how quickly we grow as authors. I for one am always learning new things and sometimes when I go back and look at what I have written in the past, I can't help but cringe. I know that I have said that I eventually plan to revise Eternity as well as a couple of other sto
Some people who follow my stories may notice that three of my stories are no longer available. The stories "Eternity", "Secret Admirer Revealed", and "Eternal Christmas", have been unpublished at this time. They will be back up eventually, but right now there is no timetable as that project is being done in the midst of all my other projects. The reason for their temporary removal is very simply. In going through some of my older stories, I cringe when I read them. I have grown so much as a
