*Two-thirds of the Bolivian population is below the poverty line
* The majority of the country’s children does not receive the minimum daily caloric intake and are suffering from nutritional deficiencies

Taking Care of a Love one.....

 

Just recently my father was admitted into the hospital because he fell and hurt himself living alone did not help matters. He was on the floor until someone arrived. It was not that long but the enzymes in his blood for his muscles are high. They do not suggest he live alone anymore. I am an only child and these choices I am forced to make are not easy. If I were healthy I would take care of him but having one kidney, my days are not always good. I feel like I am being weak for not taking care of him myself. I have chosen to put him into a  living center for 100 days to strengthen him I am hoping he does the physical therapy. I want him to be like he use to take care of himself. I just mean like bathing and such. I am having a hard time with this I am going to visit this place tomorrow it is a short term living facility. We shall see I will right my experience as I visit these places......

she could only whisper but He heard.......

how many times in your life have you wanted to leave this world......

She grew up thinking considering suicide was an options. She never knew there was another way...Tough it out, live life, built a foundation on solid ground. she need to find out what the foundation was. she knew she want to make everything better for her children she already had. She didn't think Love and marriage were her thing. She had never thought any man would be good enough for her precious children. She had made the choice to stay alone. She was good with that she was going to bible study and church. She has been writing a friend but one day as she was writing she heard something inside say is he your God look around you....she did she began to look at the drawing and letters in numerical by date box of letters. She thought no he is not my God! Then take it all down and throw it all away everything!!! She was devastated she thought I cant do it I need him. That just confirmed what the voice said he had become my God. she threw away all the letters and drawings she thought if it is meant to be God will put it together she had to practice faith and believe her heavenly father would take care of her and her precious little gifts. She needed to get to know the gifts which God had placed her in charge of.

she continued to fight the good fight staying clean checking in the parole department but she would get lonely sometimes and slip it is not easy staying clean on the outside when all you know is under the influence of something...lol. She never had it easy being adopted with in the family, made everything twice as hard. She always had her guard up. She didn't have to be that way around her brothers she liked that. She felt safe and loved around them. Her brothers didn't help with money or anything like that it was support she knew as long as they were living they would be there for her. She never even conceived that they would die young. She prayed for her bio person because no mother should go Thu what she had. She would pray for strength to continue on in this world.

In October of  1987 she was at a Harvest party with her church group and her bio person, her father, her nephew and daughters. She was sitting with all the women her age when in walked two brothers from the church they were single the women all change into to oh look at that brother. She got up and went to play with her precious children, bobbing apples, skeet ball she felt someone looking at her but and she knew who it was it was the guy she noticed once upon a time ago....what a trip how could it happen a few years earlier she was cruising in her moms car, she came up on the same car in green with to guys she had a friend with her they look and her friend said nay the passenger is ugly. She said I always in up with the ugly one...so the said NAY as the drove by. Here she was how many years later and he was looking at her with a whole table of nice women. She ignored him. She had made a commitment to serve God and she had just stop writing the guy after 5 yrs. and a promise of marriage how could she even consider dating again God was her husband.

After many encounters they finally went out in a group. He couldn't keep his eyes off her, she could feel him as if he was her soul like he was inside her every move. She was scared she prayed to God everyday please Lord if he not be of you remove him from my life! She had put it all in Gods hands, She would not take it back. Her life depended upon her faith in Jesus. She had not been looking for a boyfriend, husband or anything. She never had a problem with men they were attracted to her for as long as she could remember. They wrong type this guy seemed different she didn't know how but she thought maybe she could help him get back together with his baby mama. That was her intentions she had meet his baby mama at church service. They had been separated about one year, he had reservation out her due to drugs, she wanted him back. She could only whisper God give me strength and let your will be done.

She had intended to move to Hanford and remove herself from the equitation but the parole department said no the affiliation she had on her jacket was enough to keep her out of any county. She never understood it was just one felony drug charge why were they so hard on her. (25 yrs. later she found out she had 2 felonies drug related with a three to five year tail. )

She did not want a man in her life. One December morning she looked out the window and he was out there putting new tires on her car and a battery. Wow, no one ever did a thing for her, would he expect something in return. He was always there she tried playing the friend card. One day he asked her if she could go an where when would she go she said the snow help in the hills right down the street from the place the lived, He said Really that is all...she said it has been four years since she seen snow. The weekend they to a day drive to the mountains. The snow began to fall like magic, he held her hand and they both new at that moment they would have this forever...I guess you could call it love at first sight. Ever since that day of cruising and saying naw driving away she knew they were meant to be....

She had one hell of a life getting to where she was at that moment she loved God with all her being she had her three precious children. Would he be able to take this package deal? Could he love her children more than she did, that is what is was looking for. A father for her children. He had two children she had three. Going into a relationship they had five that is quite a tall order for any man or woman.  They only knew each other almost 2 months. She is terrified she only wants the will of God in her life. She prayed and prayed.

Being Adopted is a blessing

My mother and father picked me up from the hospital when I was 3 days old. They stories behind it and the family gossip don't matter. What does matter is I was give a chance my sibling weren't. My Biological mother I don't remember seeing her but four times and always leaving as my parents were driving up to the house were my sibling lived with food because they had none. My mom would get a call and my dad would say well lets go them Beba come on mija we are going to see your sibling. 

Family gossip is horrible when you are adopted within the blood relations. My bio and my mother are sisters. My mother passed away at a early age she was 59 years old. She help raise many of her sisters children. Before I was born both aunts were put in jail. My father and mother took care of over 20 kids that year. I wont even put the charges cause one aunt has passed and I loved her I will not disrespect her like that.

Thru the years siblings have passed away since.  I have tried to connect to the bio mom but she is bio hazard. She is a bitter women. life has not dealt her a fair hand. The hatred she has for herself she has projected on to my father. It angers me. My father prays for all these people every night and they say the ugliest things about him I defend him and stay away.  Then when some one passes I go they say we love don't disappear again...then bam...they start with the gossip. I want say dad don't pray for them but I would never hurt him like that. That would mean I would have to tell him why and I will not make my father feel bad. I will just pray for them to.

He never says oh I did for so and so and I did that for them and they are ungrateful, He prays for them I want to be angry but he shows me we must pray for them. I will continue to do as I am shown by example, pray for everyone. I refuse to return hate my father would tell me that was killing someone when you hate. I didn't understand where he got that from and it is the Bible.

Don't get me wrong I love me family and writing about stuff helps that is why I blog I was raised as an only child. Writing is and always was a from of release for me.

We recently lost a loved one and we all came together again. Each time I go I feel bad for the bio mom but she is my aunt I am respectful but she acts like a spoiled child whispering behind my back pointing out things I do. My other aunt looks like my mom they reassemble one another not exactly alike. It just makes me cry every time I see her.

Seriously I don't know what to do but stay away for good. Even if things happen I am going to stay away. When my oldest sibling passed I told her I was not going. She said I want you there firmly I said I couldn't go. I was sick didn't feel it was the time to tell her.  Needless to say she told me well if your husband dies don't expect me there! That one caught me off guard.

Now here I am at 50 years old married and still confused some of these people thrive off drama it is sad, I went around for a week the wrong one I am sure because their are a few I am close with and love dearly. I love them all they are just the most confusing, chaotic people I have ever know, I have one sister who comes around just to find out stuff but the thing is she say it I listen then she goes and says I said it. This has never changed I feel sorry for her, she is successful yet she is the unhappy, she wants a relationship with a person who understands her good luck with that.

I am invited to the family reunion the extended family not just them, I want to go but I don't want to speak some people would it be rude to just walk by and ignore them? It would be worse if we talked. Most of my family are good people they intend well.  I know I am judging. I better pray like my dad has shown me and be a lady. I am blessed to be unconditionally love and cared for. I pray that happens for them also if it hasn't happen already.

Protect your child use Child protect by DNA

ChildProtect by DNA is provided by DNA Diagnostics Center, the largest private DNA company in the world and #1 hospital recommended in the US

Over 800,000 children go missing every year!

Law enforcement agencies state the first 3 hours of a missing child’s search are the most important

A DNA profile is a Genetic Fingerprint and every person’s is unique

Every profile is signed by a PhD when it leaves the DDC laboratory

A DNA profile is used by police when they find an item (saliva) that contains traces of DNA. By having a DNA profile on hand, the police have something to compare against.  If there is no DNA profile, police need to collect DNA from the child’s home and send it to a laboratory to get the profile.

She could only whisper but he heard........

she was now on her way to prison how did this happen? One minute she was attending church carrying her bible she was in Junior High the next thing she was on drugs and lost alone and hating God. She remembered the day she was angry at God, Her sister called her to get to the hospital their brother was in an accident. She refused to go she new it is only a broken leg. She said no no no I am not going he is fine. He had called early that day to tell her she needed to find a good man for her two little girls her second daughter was 3 weeks old. He was hit by a drunk driver his beautiful voice she would no longer hear, his showing up and keeping her in line was not to happen, why? Why? He was sober on his bike and he was gone just like that. She began to spin out of control she was angry, she wanted to make the pain leave the screaming inside just became louder she used what she could to stop the pain she knew God but she was lost she blamed him the pain was to much to bare. When she realized it had gone to far she was on the Grey Goose chained in waist chains. She realized how scary things were when they stopped at a rest stop to use the bathroom all chained. People grabbing their children like she was a murder..lol..she really didn't care at that point if she could she would do something like grab a purse an take the care. She couldn't they were chained together. As they arrived at the gate Hang on Snoopy started playing, as the gates closed 96 tears played. She arrived how did things get so deep she started by just hang out with other kids that didn't know God she started out  right things just got too deep.. the pain the anger her brother...her life would never be the same. She could only whisper now she had to do this time she loved her children how could she not see what she craved and wanted was before her all along, her selfness put her there no excuses no more she did all this nobody was at her side. Wow, processing was an experience you never forget you are no longer your own you are the state of California's property. They make sure you know that from the time that gate slams. Her family was there it would be okay she just had to do 16 months just 16 months. she had already done 6 county dead time it would never count. That had went really slow the drive up was nice being in county you don't see the sun much. The prison was way down south on a hill. It had sun but it wasn't freedom. She tried to stay out of trouble but trouble was her name she had to defend herself. She really didn't belong there or did she? She wanted to be a good mother take care of her babies but she had to get rid of all that hate. She had to learn to like herself and not let anyone take advantage of her again. Life had to get better..she knew in her heart she needed GOD!!! She needed to return to her first love. But she could only whisper that....

Santa Cruz California

We had a wonderful weekend at the beach. We stayed in a Motel room it was clean but not a nice place had the basics no phone, no wifi, but it did have cable. I can't even remember the name of the motel not one room was vacant in Santa Cruz we had to drive back to San Jose we laughed hard because on our Honey moon we got lost in San Jose and ended up in a flea bag motel. We had a wonderful time remembering them we went to bed the next morning we found a Dennys ate breakfast outside because we had our dog.

He was not suppose to be on the beach loose he stayed in his bag we bought at Walgreens for $ 9.00

and Daddy and I enjoyed the day toooo

 

She could only whisper....and he heard

She never liked talking about those days. The days she woke only to do drugs all day all night and start again in the morning. She don't remember how long this went on When she woke up she was in Jail again. This was nothing new it was actually a good thing. A bed three meals no drugs at least until she could get things rolling. First let's start the game, request the infirmary for methadone or kick cold turkey she usually went cold turkey but she knew this time was different she had been using a lot the pain was unbearable, life was unbearable. She could not think of that now. If only she could remember why she got popped this time. She would try to stay clean but to much pain. She felt alone and confused. How did things get this bad? How did she end up on her way to prison? Wow, it all happened quickly.

She took her child to school that day she was in preschool. She was a perfect child never a problem. She made her promise to pick her up not to leave her. It was as if her child knew. She went back home finished getting high She never noticed the cars they were many surrounding her house. They came from everywhere Cops in riot gear, ATF, FBI, SWAT. What would the neighbors think after all she grew up in that house. She thought she would be okay their were no drugs left. Everything was used up. She thought but a cop came out of the room with rigs (syringes) and drugs where did those come from dam She knew her cousin had been at her house the Cops where after him but they settled for her. She was high her children were crying hitting the cops. One officer called them animals she told them they are scared let her calm them down. One White officer said okay the Mexican judged her. She didn't care she told him "unless you have been in my shoes don't judge her soul" at that point the officer asked her why if she was intelligent did she allow her life to get that bad. She look at the Mexican and said that is my family they rather take my children away than help me get up. He shook his head her parents showed up. They got the children and the one in preschool would know later. The white officer waited until the children to leave and he allowed her to kiss and tell them she loved them to say their prayers and read their bible. The middle child said you to mommy at the same time okay. Her child was two how would she know the time. Her child quickly ran back and hug her tight I love you mommy never forget that. She was high but some how this conversation has never left her mind. She also remembered the promised she broke again...man how did she get this deep in the game. She never did time every time she got lucky and got out. Not this time she had to fight this in court she was looking at the max of 8 years. She really didn't care at that point she was angry. The DA had her he wanted a rental agreement. She paid the bank for the house they said the house was bought with drug money. But if she pleaded guilty and did 16 months felony time state time. He would not arrest her parents. Wow she could not let that happen it didn't matter about her the children would be taken care of maybe she could change get a trade for a job when she got out. She hated every thing about herself not one thing was any good and now prison. How deep was this going to go the hole was getting deeper. She could get drugs in prison and business would start. She was in deep one night she woke up in a church service. Crying asking God to forgive her. She needed a second chance for she was at her worse. She was doing 16 months she started going to church and it was harder than you think every one of those inmates watched everything she did. They would start fights she would fight if she had to and she had to. Nothing was good in that place except the fact that half the place was family. Sad but true grandma called it the vacation resort. She tried had to begin to like herself and forgive herself she would only do the 16 months then it was over right. (While in prison unknown to her she was given 3yrs and 2 felonies.) she never knew until 25yrs later. She will one day be able to talk about her time here but she will never give the devil Glory God used this time to help her he heard her cry and he put her on the mountain top to find a way to stop abusing her body with drugs. She needed to be a GODLY Mother Godly women. This was her goal......

Caring for an Elderly Loved one!!!!

July 2013
Before 2009 my daughter cared for my father she did the best she good with the information she knew about caring for grandpa. He was independent and cared for himself administering his own medications. We thought he knew what he was doing. in July of 2009 he had a stroke more than once that left him looking as though he can make his own choice for his self this is where we ended up with papa

 

 

He was almost 400lbs a little later we found out he had a spinal infection due to his sugar being out of control. At that time we had now idea he was diabetic. his sugar would go as high as 500 or 600 it was crazy he was not in his right mind his whole body shut down in the hospital and was semi comatose. We thought it was over the doctor asked us if he had be walking prior to this incident I said yes He said it was a miracle. My dad since then has gone thru many changes he changed for the independent man I once knew to a child requiring around the clock care. He is set in his ways living with me is not an option but spending the night sharing the care with others is easier. Sometimes it ends up on the shoulder of one person and it is to much. My father is a funny man we have to monitor his medication because he easily overtakes medication cause he forgets. I am looking to get a medication lock box dispenser. He is doing so much better but the care is hard even with help from IHSS because you get people who say they know how to do things and they don't know how to do something as simple as poking a finger and testing blood sugars. How can you trust them to dispense insulin especially if you must go on a sliding scale. It is scary you can accidently overdose your patients because you are not trained. I think state health worker should be offered an injection course, diabetic care, bed ridden care, these classes should be give free by the state for the betterment of our Elderly and disabled Americans. Their is an easy fix these people can kill your loved ones without intentions of doing so. Insulin is a drug that is very dangereous. here is my father out of the hospital

 

These are the most recent pictures and how much weight he has lost with a control diet. I recently changed his provider I should not have because he is not doing well with his sugar stress, food, change, everything effects his sugar

We are moving on the first to the bigger city due to work for my sons and I am moving my father shortly there after. My dad has always been there for me he may not have done the right things always but he did the best he could with what he knew. I thank God I was raised and loved by a man I call Father, Dad, Dadddy, Old Man and a few other names...lol If you help care for your parent or just want to talk find me on facebook and we can find answers for our parents online together. nanaroberta@facebook.com Thank you
