The funniest thing I've ever heard.
MY MIL text my husband. It started out something "she said..." He shut her down. He accidentally deleted the message & told her this. But told her not to resend, anyways she doesn't reply for several days. Then she says, please tell me how to forward this to you, you need to read my message. (Oh god, he does... Cause she's so damn important) So he walks her thru a series of steps that erases ALL of their texts from her PHONE. & says that should send him what he needs from her. She replies "the messages are blank! They're gone???" All upset. She doesn't realize it was intentional.

Nice to have support
So as luck would have it my MILFH (mother in law from hell) texted my husband yesterday. He opened the text... He read the first few words & accidently deleted it. It said "bradymom said..." & that's all he saw before he hit delete. So he replied. "I accidently deleted your text. All I read was "bradymom said" then I hit the wrong button & it was gone. But don't bother resending it. I read all of her texts, so I know what she has said to you & I not only support her in all she has said, I repeat her words."
She didn't text back.

Update
I had an ischemic stroke on 1/16.
Today is the first day I've really felt like I am kinda back to normal. I did a load of laundry & unloading the dishwasher & loaded it & wiped the table down.
Who would think you would miss that stuff?
No change in hearing in left ear & the rest is the same. I'm able to control my bladder most all of the time. I seem to have one accident every 3-5 days. Not bad.
My mother in law is still acting like a crazy person. She went ape shit texting me. I sent her a reply:

Tired.
Well. My 17 year old told his dad about my stroke. I'm sure i'll be getting a motion to modify custody in the next couple weeks. I already had a massive breakdown over it. With peeing my pants & bloody nose & fight to get my clothes off included. I've calmed down as it's been 24 hours since the lil blessing dropped the news on us.

Trying to stay calm. Trying.
For those of you that have been following. I had a stroke 1/16/14.
I would like to report great strides. I don't think there are any. I went away for most of the week to stay with wealthy family member in the snowy mountains to relax. My DH drove me here & they are bringing me home tomorrow. It's been nice. There's an indoor jacuzzi, fireplaces & massage therapist on call. I haven't had to do my hair or make up myself. I'm not eating much, but I've had whatever I have a taste for prepared. & any relative I've wanted to see brought in to visit. I've been spoiled.

Frustrating
I feel like such a burden. I don't think my DH understands. I really don't. I get frustrated and upset. I cry and sometimes get angry. I lose things everywhere. I forget things. I can't remember simple things. He is supportive but can't seem to understand why I get upset. I think that's normal. My whole life has changed. I'm not normal anymore.

Progress
Vibration test shows left ear is healing. And I started therapy and use the bathroom every 20 min and have only had one accident. I have alarms set on my phone. I broke out on shingles all over my legs and underwear area it's so painful. It's common for this I guess. I havebt crapped since the 14th or 15th. I don't think that's what they mean when they say you have to stop giving a crap. Ugh. I'm taking medication for that.

My life has totally changed
So whoever reads my blog... I had a stroke over a week ago. With that I lost hearing in my left ear. I also lost my ability to know if I have to pee. So I wear diapers now. I really don't know what to say about that. I have been to the dr 2 times since. I have got some feeling back in left hand. All feeling back in right hand. I'm still numb between toes. And still numb in cheek & lower lip, down to neck. I get confused a lot. Dr says nerve testing in 5-6 weeks.

Trying to be calm
If he farts one more time I'm going to flip out. Ugh. That's where I'm at with that. Ugh. Well if this is a clue how ok going to do when my other two kids get here, it's not going to be good. When I saw my stepdaughter I had to leave the room bc I started crying. When my stepson farts, which has been about 8 times in 20 minutes I feel like I'm going to throw the tv out a window. Um. Emotions a little all over the place. My SD8 said "Your face looks different." Yeah. My kids are going to know.
