Pray for Me

My brother is in a bind with his house.  I'm going over today to paint and lay tile.  This is going to be a long day for me because. I'm going to be very sore when I'm done.  I always work medicated.  I get more done.  I will not be medicated.  My mother however will have them and I know she will offer them.  Please pray that I have the strength to say the words. No thanks I'm good.  That;s my mantra for the day NO THANKS I'm Good.  I'm good I'm good.  Okay I'm off for a bit.

Hi,
I do not know which type of drugs you are having problems with but if they are over the counter or prescription drugs, let me tell you my story.
I for 3 years have been a codine addict, here in Canada you can buy them cheap at any drug store.
Only 3 months ago, I had half of my stomach removed due to a grossly oversized ulcer!! But that was not the worst part, apparently if you have an ulcer that goes untreated it can eventually casue stomach cancer.
Underneath my ulcer was proof enough, for I was filled with cancerous cells. After they were removed and analized, I was relieved to find out I will survive.
I am 48 years old and almost succeeded at my own suicide.
You cannot imagine the horror when I realized that I did this to myself. I have never been more ashamed.
Please focus on life--- not death. Breath in deeply and make a stand for yourself. YOU ARE WORTH THE EFFORT!!!!!
My prayers are also with you.

Ahh how I wish I could help you paint. I love it. Even though it kills my arms and the rest of my body, its just so relaxing in many other ways. Painting, drawing, or any type of arts and crafts makes my mind at ease. Probably because I get so wrapped up in what I am doing, I cant think about anything else.

Have fun, and hope you dont over do it so that you get too sore.
