From: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/845525-print[I confess] Toulmouche was probably the first physician to report a case of malignant external otitis (MEO), in 1838.
I confess that I am feeling more dread than excitement about seeing my parents in October after 2 years of seeing them last. My mother has stopped taking her mood disorder meds, so she's quite the scary person at the moment. I was all excited about them meeting Travis for the first time, but now I just feel like, "can't I just stay home here in England forever and not have to deal with this side of my family." I know it's wrong and all, but I just feel a sense of dread right now. I hope she starts taking her meds again soon.
I confess I had so much I wanted to get off my chest about how I feel about my mom, but I didn't feel like I could just tell anyone. I mean, she's my mom, you know? So I got together with my sister about a month ago, and we both feel the same way about certain things involving my mom. Now, whenever something bothers me or her, we can just call eachother and not feel terrible about talking negatively about our mom. It's such a relief, cause we both do love her to death, it's just that. KWIM?

Hopefully there is enough time and it's enough of an ultimatum that she's get back on her meds. It would be really hard to take a vacation on your own, let alone with a toddler, and see a family member who is not acting appropriately and causing more stress.
Well, I'm sure most of us have family members who don't act appropriately and cause more stress (I know I sure do), but maybe not at a clinically diagnosable level.
Good luck.
Ok I'll try. So Friday was my birthday and I went with all three of my sisters to watch the Orphan Movie. We started out having a great time, but then once in the theatre there was this guy who looked like he was definitely on something. Well my sister has been clean (meth) for almost a month and a half now, after being hooked for like four or five years. She turned into a completly different person when she saw this guy. She got extremely nervous, and looked so pale. As soon as he would step out she reverted back to her normal self. So through the entire movie that's how it went. She was nervous, okay, nervous, okay... Finally the guy took a seat and we finished the movie, which was good btw. But I confess I never knew how bad my sister's dependence on the drug was until that night. It was almost scary. She could swear she saw him doing the drug, but no one else saw this. It was just a sad experience. I hope this time is truly the time she stays clean. This time she was the one who went to my dad and admitted to still using, and asked for him to take her to NA. She had us convinced she was clean for the last year, and we came to find out she had never went more than a few days without it. It's so strange not to have known. She was good at hiding it. She never wanted to be clean until now. She goes to her meetings EVERY single day, and calls her sponser at least twice a day. She didn't want to go out on Friday with us, but her sponser said it was best, besides she was going out with her sisters and none of us have ever used. It was an experience for her, and she said it was hard to watch that guy even from afar and that she was going to bring it up in her next meeting. I am proud of her for doing so well on Friday.

I confess I have an infected tooth and my right cheek is swollen! I'm going to try and get into the dentist tomorrow. PITA!!
I confess... I wish there were more secular ladies here in TX!![]()
I'm back! I had a great time in Minnesota with my sister and her family. It was hard to leave. I got to meet Katy (katycat24) too!! She is so totally awesome and JoJo is a sassy little sweetheart.I wish Liam had behaved better during our meetup though. He was grumpy all day. It'll be interesting to see the pic Katy's husband got of us... Liam was screeching and trying to lurch out of my arms.
I will catch up tomorrow. Aidan is starting kindergarten! EEK!!
And um, Kim? You still got your phone or are you ignoring my persistant texts??![]()
Welcome home! I'm glad you had a safe trip!
I'm not ignoring you, though I know you don't believe me now.I still have to return your PM I just rarely have 5 minutes ALONE where I can think to write out a decent response.
Off to find my phone... I haven't seen it in a few days.
Break out some popcorn and watch the drama unfold...![]()
Hi everyone!
I confess that I just got an Iphone!!! Not juicy, but definitely exciting to catch up to the rest of the world after having this useless brick for all these years![]()
and now for the way juicer one...
Ugh, I wrote it out and deleted it like 5 times. I so don't have the guts to post it publicly. Grrr.
Jesus Kim, can Lorelai be any cuter!![]()
Tease!!!!
Seriously, it must be a tough confession.
Welcome back, Rin. You have been the queen of the APA meetup this summer.
Heartmyboyz, I can't imagine how difficult it must be for your sister (and for you, watching her go through this). I think meth is one of the most difficult addictions there is, and it's great that she's working so hard on getting clean.
Xtrememousey, I think it's time to place some hidden cameras in your house for your inlaw visit and throw out some strategic, sure-fire instigating statements. And then get the popcorn. Or be like me and just be quiet and polite and try to make sure everyone gets along.
I confess...where the hell have I been? I need to start posting more.
I confess...I have some people in my life that are driving me bonkers bananas. And they are people I can't spend less time with, for various reasons (e.g. work/school). You know something that drives me crazy? When people treat the computer tech guy like he is a slave. "oh, my stuff is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo important, you MUST work late. I can't wait a second for anyone else". Like, these people are GRAD students, not CEOs. And they aren't even asking nicely. wtf.
That is really not a secular confession, but I needed to get it off my chest. phew.
