COURAGE !!!

Some in my life have told me i'm couragous and i don't know maybe i am, however i don't know what courage means or is en yet i believe i have seen 2 people close to me whom i know have it. One lives near me and if you read my blogs you already know him, he has such a good disposition considering he is on dialysis and also now blind and for the first time in his life has to rely on others for everything from getting around to making a meal. This man whom i have known for quite a while was very independant most of his life, and now just sits and listens to the world instead of participating.

The second i have known all of her life and proud to say i have loved her since the first time i changed her diaper at a very young age. Yes this is my sister's daughter, yes my niece and brbably the most couragous person i know. She has been a very caring person all of her life as she has an older sister whom she has always looked out for from an early age when grampa would give her a quarter and rather than run off she would stand right there and hold her hand out asking where was her sisters quarter, and now she has to live with a very serious ailment known as LUPUS which i don't understand alot about except it's extremely painful. My niece i would like to say she's had a good life except i can't as she had 2 failed relationships but did get 3 wonderful children and i guess a fair trade for years of crap. The oldest was an incredible young lad whom now needs some male influines as now a teenager and while still a good kid just a little off, his brothers from her second relationship are both nice kids except one has a heart condition that if unchecked could be fatal, but what makes things more difficult for her is all 3 are hyper and either do or should be on ridlin.

One other thing is she is no doubt a member of my side of the family as she has the backbone and temper of our side, fortunatly she in no way resembles me lucky for her. If i could take on her physical and financial limitatios i would as i love and admire her very much.

See you soon...
