I feel so sad for all those overseas. I can't imagine this world can handle another natural disaster this year. We go from Tsumamis to Hurricanes/massive flooding and then to this horrible Earthquake. I know it seems selfish or obsessive, but I can not wait to get out of CAlifornia. Lexy is so close to San Fransisco and I fear for her when she is gone, that there may be an earthquake and I might not be able to get to her. I am sure all teh moms/dads out there can understand. |

I don't blame you Erica. I remember, when I lived in Nevada, always wondering when a big earthquake would strike. At least with other natural disasters, you have a little warning. I've been thinking the same thing. We've all been knocked to our knees lately with these disasters. It's upsetting. |

It must be hard for you, but just remember why you are going through this, it is for her schooling. You have sent her to the school because you want what is best for her.My heart goes out to you as it must be horrible for you to send her. my daughter and i live from one school hoilday to the next, i love being with her as you do your daughter. It will all be worth it in the end. When you feel lonely, just remember we are here for you always. -x-x-

Its sounds as if a move will be so good for both of you. Didn't you say that in Columbus her school would be right down the street? That will change your lives so much for the better! I can't imagine my girl being gone all the time like that. I hope that changes for you soon! How soon can you move? |

Yes in Columbus the school is just down the street, ok well a few miles from my school..As are the other schools I am applying to for grad school. I refuse to move somewhere were she can't live at home. I have held it together for the last two years that she has been away, but it is really hitting me hard. Truthfully I think it has been hitting me hard all along. I just didn't really let it phase me that it was the the main contributer to my depression. The last four days I have found myself in tears or curling up in her room. I am counting the days until we move. Truth is I don't know where I will get accepted, Columbus is highest on my list. I like the program, I like the instructors, I like the school for the deaf, I am not sure about the city, I don't really know much abut it. So if anyone is around there or been there some thoughts about it would be nice, I was born and raised on teh west coast NV and CA so I have never been back east. I wish I could move sooner, I have to finish this year and I have just begun the grap application process. I am trying to remind myself that not all students are accepted into grad shcool on the first try. So if for some reason I don't get in, we will move to OH, and I will reapply for winter session. i spoke to the chair of the dept an dshe said that any students woh aren't acceptd for fall and usually accepted for winter if they reapply. I hate that I miss her games, I can't help with homework. I dont eat dinner with her. I don't know her friends. I mean i know some of them but very few because I dont see them. I feel like I am missing so much of her life and I cant get that time back. I just can't wait until next summer, I am praying daily or hourly for the chance to be close to her and for the abilty ot move at all (finacially and acidemically). Thanks fo rthe understanding and kind words. I am so angry right now, I have been so upset and my sister in law had the nerve to tel l my best friend that I made the choice to send her to the school because I couldn't handle her. I am so angry, she ahs no idea! How much it rips my heart out every time she leaves, how it hurts every night I go to sleep and I don't hear her in the other room breathing. I just want to strangle her she has no idea! I know I made the right choice, I know LEx needs the education that they provide her and I know that she needs to be there right now, but how dare she judge me. Her kids can talk her kids can hear she has no idea. OK well thanks for listening, and letting me vent. Liegh are you in Columbus???? We are coming down in January we should do coffee! |
