emotional

[drlmg]

If anyone you know is acting very moody.... bitchy, irrational, weird..... please remember this time of year is extremely hard for a lot of people. Please have patience.... I used to have an extremely hard time with depression, especially around Christmas since I have no children and want them desperately. I have since conditioned myself to be almost devoid of any emotions or "feelings" so I personally don't care anymore but please remember others and that you never know what the may be experiencing. Don't automatically assume they are being an A-hole.

Thank You

drmg,

Very mature and thoughtful ideas. Indeed this is a troubling time for a lot of people.

Personally I am dealing with a decline in my step-fathers health due to the spread of malignant cancer through his lungs (from his liver)... I spoke with him Saturday evening and he was sounding very bad. My father died at the beginning of January in 2010 and it seems that this time of year if full of death for me...

My only rescue is my work and my Torah study... And my good deeds...

I'm sorry you're going through a rough time Drlmg.  And Muman, I'm sorry about your stepfather. 

My father has been getting chemo for his leukemia.  He's lost a lot of weight, and he has very little appetite.  I hope it's doing him some good.

Cancer is a curse... We all think there will be a cure for it by the time we (Heaven Forbid) may get it.... My father said this, and my step-father said this... But the cure has not come yet...

Hashem, hear our cries.... The cure for cancer is within Your Holy powers so you may grant a blessing in the form of a cure for your creations. Please don't make us wait, Hashem, till the coming of Moshiach for the cure to this most damaging disease.
