for a long time. That's why it was so horrible, (I'm still feeling bad but not as much since I did manage to sleep)

This situation with my brother has been going on for over 3 years and he lies and tries to waste time and do stupid things to get me to forget it. I sent him several messages last night and included the FL statues that he is breaking and the ramifications for him if he is caught. I am still dealing with my mom who had traumatic brain injury since her fall before the hurricane. She is actually so much better but she still can't even stand up!

I think the stress of it all has put me over the edge. I'm going to call the pharmacy to see if they have the medicine now.
