Today is mine and Mikes birthday. We have no plans for today but Erin will come home tomorrow and we will go out to eat as a family.

We have decided not to go to my sisters funeral because Elisa would not be able to handle the 7 hour drive there and the 7 hour drive back. She is doing a little better and we do not want to see her regress because of this. I am also very weak at this time due to the amount of weight I have lost. I am beginning to work on my lack of eating. My pastor is having me read a book called Love to Eat  Hate to Eat. I have lost 100 pounds due to all the stress I am under--but I now  realize I have to take steps to eat more. I have been worrying my family by not eating. Please pray for me as I struggle with this,

We found out this week that the lawyer will be charging us for the new petition and all the filing fees and court dates. He is charging us his regular fee. This has taken all of our savings since this has been done wrong. Our pastor said to let the church know what the extra cost will be and that they will help us.

Everyone have a great day I will try to get to your sites soon.

Thank you all so much. Tomorrow is Mine and Mikes birthday. The staff at the church is sending us cards and e-mails to wish us a happy birthday.

I found out this morning that my sister Kare was found dead in her apartment.  Oud hearts are breaking.  Trina

Someone brought us a meal last night from church--we did not know these people but found out that they were only here three weeks. That is a blessing to have people do that for us. Everyone have a good day.  Trina

                                              Good Morning,

Well Erin is gone and we really miss her. Her dad got to go because she could not get all her things in her car. The tears did not come untill she said goodbye to Elisa. Elisa said good bye like she would normally do. Erin came down stairs to leave and Elisa came to the top of the stairs and yelled Erin I love you--the tears came for all of us. Later after Erin left Elisa said I really miss Erin.  I have never heard her say she miss anyone before.Life is going to be different--but that is how it is suppose to be. Evertone have a great day day.. Trina

Today is the day that Erin will be leaving. Mike is taking it really hard. She has waited untill the last minute to pack. She wants to go by herself. Mike took the day off in case she changes her mind and lets him go. She does not want us to see her cry. I will try to comment on your sites soon.  Trina

                                         Good Morning,

Not able to sleep. Thanks for all your nice comments. I will be calling the lawyer next week. I needed to step back and regroup and I am too emotional right now to have an intelligent conversation with him. Last night in church I did get several hugs from ladies--I needed that. I am getting calls each day from women in the church to make sure I am ok and we are now getting meals several times a week.Thamks again..

Things went terrible yesterday. The judge refuse to even hear our case because he said he would not accept the paper work our lawyer gave him. It was not filled out right. We know have to redo everything. We have paid 2000 dollars already and we know another bill will be coming soon. This is going to cost a lot more now. We are very discouraged right now. We have to put Elisa thru another court date and now her doctor has to fill out a bunch of papers--we heard one family had to pay their doctor 100 dollars to fill out the papers.  Please pray for us as we are only trying to help Elisa but it seems like we are getting no where.

We will be leaving soon for court. I woke up with a bad headache. Thanks for all your prayers. Sorry I have not been leaving comments as I should--trying to keep things as calm as possible here. Have a good day.  Trina

                                            Good Morning,

Hopimg you all had a good weekend. Ours was mostly quiet. Elisa had a panic attack at the park with Erin.We go to court tomorrow. Please pray for us as we are very neverous about this. Have a good day.  Trina
