*UPDATE*

Wow. Thank you everyone that either gave me prayers, support, or commissions. I really wasn't expecting much more than a few good words after posting the journal, and the wildfire of blessings that came about is truly amazing. With the commissions that came in, my Mom is going to be able to put a down payment on a new house, since the one they have been living in for the past 10 years or so will now no longer pass inspection. And since she now has two less kids to take care of for the moment, she is using this opportunity to find a new place. So that is about the most lemonade we can make from the current batch of lemons. As far as her getting back my adopted brother and foster sister, we don't know yet. Since insulin was found in his system, they are treating it like an attempted homicide, and since my mother is his guardian, she gets saddled with the blame, even though it could have been one of countless other nurses or people that are in and out of the house. Lame eh? Nothing like a felony charge, having your children taken away, and having to move to help battle your case of cancer. BUT, these are the hands we are dealt I guess, so we are holding strong throughout out. And luckily, we have a wonderful community here to help us through. So honestly and sincerely, thank you. You have all made this terrible situation more manageable.

Yay, Cereal and Pajamas is out in shops.

That is the good news.

The bad? I won't get into too many details, but I will say the last 24 hours has included my family's house catching on fire, my brother going to the hospital of low blood sugar, my Mother being accused of being the cause for his illness, which resulted in her having two of her kids taken away from her, her bank account drained from hospital bills, and of course she still has terminal cancer to top it all off. As of tonight, she, my sister, and one brother are staying in a motel because they cant get back into the house yet, with not a penny to their name. Oh, and my wife's car was broken into, with her purse, wallet, cell phone etc all stolen, which in repairs, replacements, etc is running us close to 1000 dollars. So sending money home to help my family is not nearly as much I wish I could.

So, needless to say, the last 2 days have easily been the worst I have ever known, and the future doesn't look to be getting better anytime soon. The only good is that as of right now, everyone is alive and breathing.

So any and all prayers are more than welcome and greatly appreciated. And any commissions are appreciated as well. You can find my rates here: [link] My paypal is lesliejungbluth@gmail.com

Life sure knows how to break a person.
