I Need Some Good JuJu Here Guys...

Well, Shit...

It's been a rough few months for the Gonzo clan and I could use some good Mojo...

I found out a few days ago that my mother has a baseball sized growth on her right kidney.
The Doc said he's seen this before and it's likely not Cancer, (I don't know what the hell it would be, a cyst perhaps). Apparently, the treatment for this involves injecting a small radioactive rod into the growth and killing the infected tissue. Unfortunately, this will likely kill the kidney as well.
This usually wouldn't worry me much because my mother was always a very strong woman. However, since her retirement about 8 years ago her health has steadily gone down hill.
My mom's a great person, she worked as a CNA for over 30 years while moving every 1-3 years for my dad so he could further is millitary career.
Lifting Senior Citizens in and out of bathtubs and off of toilets for that long has taken it's toll on her.


They both retired at a fairly young age and have been able to enjoy it until recently.


At this point you pray for small victories.



All of this crap coupled with my job worries, worries for my son and all the other bullshit I deal with daily wears a guy out.

One thing I'll say is that Lumpy has been awesome with all of this. She's been a great help and very supportive. She absolutely loves my parents and is always there for them.

Another bright spot is that I'm being considered for a promotion.
Funny how things like this go, I'm either worried about getting canned or I'm excited for a new opportunity. WTF?

I was going to take an extended break from this place but I am in need of the stress relief that CP provides so I'll be in and out.
(gimme my $$$ back Sofaking)
I try not to share too many personal issues on here but with all of the support you guys have given me, it's only fair I keep you updated.

I'm relieved really, this is the start of our upswing. Things are definitely looking up.
I'll keep you all informed. I appreciate all the good mojo!

Update:


Getting laid off today. Getting a severence package though, (hopefully it's decent) and I have some things lined up. I'm going to take a little time off to spend some quality time with my family.
My mother's surgery is Tuesday night. She's losing the kidney, unfortunately. The docs are still optomistic. However, there's still a chance that it's cancerous after all.
They brought in a specialist yesterday to look at the MRI and he's saying that there's a 50-50 chance that it's cancer but he's 95% that it's contained to the right kidney only so she should be ok.

All of this coupled with my dog passing last weekend has got me a little uptight right now. I'm going to try and enjoy my time off next week and just try to relax.

Any word on that job you applied for?

If you work in the industry I think you work in, you're lucky to be getting a severance package. Combined with unemployment it should give you some time to fully evaluate your options and figure out what's next.

Good luck brah!

Nothing yet. It's with my current company and the HR manager called me today. She told me that they're looking hard at options. One of my co-workers is going to put me in a position in a month, (I have to take a month off or my Severance is void) if I want it.

In my prayers.

I don't know what it is but this last year has been ****ing terrible for damned near everyone.

I have no solution or great advice other than to concentrate on telling the people you care about that you love them. Spend more time now doing things for them and with them.
