| This is too much.....prayers please There is NO way to explain all the drama surronding a very serious situation going on with my 34 year old sister. I will try to tuch on things as SO much has happened, I am just trying to keep my mind clear so I can be productive. Nikki, my older Sister was 19 weeks preg. and feeling terrible the last few weeks. She went to FIVE doctor's/ER'S and one heart specialist trying to figure out what was wrong. They all sent her home saying it was stress. She was saying she had never felt this sick and her color was wrong when I saw her a few days before she had a stroke at 4 a.m two weeks ago. She was finally sent from the ER to ICU but, they had no clue what was wrong with her for a few days, telling us her blood count was extremly low ( I asked about Leukemia,they said they were not treating her for that at this point ) so for days they treated symptons, called in all kinds of doctor's....infectious diease doc's to see if there was something rare going on b/c everything they test for came back negative. Finally after a bone marrow biopsey they told us she had APL ( Leukemia ) so they started Chemo, they baby had died by this point but they were worried if she started bleeding they wouldn't be able to stop it so wanted her to carry it as long as possible....in a few days they had changed their mind b/c they were dealing with, APL, the baby who was dead inside her, and at least two major strokes. Her brain swelled, she slept for two days, they gave her meds that would act as a sponge and draw the fluid down for her pass out by urine. The meds worked and she woke up but, she is talking less then she was before she went to sleep those two days. Nikki still has her thought's ( thank GOD! ) She knows us and tries to talk to us....she has her thoughts, but struggles to find hte words and that frustrates her. Nikki majored in English and graduated from LSU where she works in the French dept. She has always used very big words and corrected me in my English from childhood.....it's so heartbreaking to see her struggle with simple words. It has been gut wrenching to stand by her when it hit her days later she had a baby boy who didn't make it, or seeingher 4 year old today for the first time in two weeks....she looked at her daughter and fell out sobbing. As hard as it is to see her hurt, I thank GOD she has normal reactions that any mother would have. I am worried about her home she bought less than 6 months ago, and her car she bought less than a year ago....most of all I am worried about my 4 year niece...her ummm * doner who has not spent a day with her in 4 years is now over at my sisiters house, driving her new car, and using her two older kids ( 15 & 16 ) to baby sit. He could care less about that baby, he dosen't know how to care for her. The older children's father ( my sisiters ex husband ) has been AMAZING......driving over 2 hours each week to cut her grass, pay a lot of the bills with his own money, he is waiting to take his kids when they finish school....we do not want to up root them so close to the end of school. When the teens are gone I don't know how the 4 year old will survive and if anything ever happend to any of my sister's kids she could not go on. I hope the sorry son of a gun will just leave Maya with me and Shane until Nikki can take care of her again....we will see. I am trying to get power of attorney tomorrow so I can get with her mortage companey and bank and try to save her house if that is the only thing that can be saved. That thing is just going to have to leave, I have NO idea why he would think he could just live in her house that he never helped her with. He has to go and soon, I have had two run in's with him and emotions on my end are running so high worried about my sister and her kids I have no time for him. He is very shadey, I believe he is dangerouse....Nikki has said in the past he is very evil, but she didn't eleborate. I have to think of my children b/c I feel he is not above hurting them when I cut him off from her car,money,house. I never saw ONE emotion out of him until money came up. I feel 10 foot tall and bullet proof when dealing with him, its my family I worry about. Please join me in prayer as I pray for my sister's recovery and the wisdom and patience to safely deal with this dead beat that will not create even more problems. He is not above selling that little girl to someone who wants a pretty little girl. Also, about two weeks before Nikki had her stroke we were told my uncle who is only 40 has ALS ( Lou Gerhing's diease ) He is like a brother to me and I have to help drive him and get his affairs in order as my grandparents who raised me can not drive him into the city. It's just soooooo much I dont know what to do, other than pray. Angie |

| Oh Sweetie, I'm so sorry to read this. I know you do not want to hear this right now but it is strong women that hold this world together and you are one of them. It sounds like you have enough to bear for your whole family. Please be careful with this jerk and walk lightly. As long as he is in the house you have access to your niece. Hopefully the power of attorney will help you. If you ever need to talk just pm me. There are several of us that have gone through some overwhelming rough times and understand your feelings. We care and will keep you in our prayers. Lou |

| ohh sweetie i feel for you and yes of course i will keep you and your sister and your whole family in my thoughts and prayers and i will pass it on to my church. i feel so sorry for this all and yes try to get power of attorney that way you can in a sense take over the affairs of hers and then if he has no legal ties to the property such as name on deed or mortgage etc car he has no right to them and in fact he has no right to them now if he does not have his name on any of it and if he refuses than you can say hes stealing and hes breaking and entering into a property of your sister now for one but of both of you if you take power of attorney and girl as hard as it all may seem GOD never made everyhting easy and i was always told that we can make it through and the tougher the situation the more thankful and the tougher you are when you get out of it i know you can do this and you can always depend on any of us to help you out just let me know if i was closer to you i would march up there with you and throw his butt out oh that made my day to think i could do that but stay strong and yes we will pray for your whole family
