I'm telling you the truth...(Read Without Fail.)

She lived a life which seemed fulfilling; her appearance was always good to go; she had a beautiful smile that was very contagious.

Yet, year after year she was depleted, and then defeated (in her heart) from the words of her abusive husband.

Don't ever let this happen to you. Always say to yourself..."Not on My Watch."

I Believe You Can...!

*Special Note: Sadly, that defeated woman who was pressed down, and defeated was my mother. (See illustration below.)

I’m sorry for the long comment and just wanted to share what I went though and how tough it was and many tears and days of depression , but I did it slowly and I am able again to smile, breath and live again. How bad do u or should I say is want a good job ? I would say everyone does but how many of us have the strength to get up early mornings , stay late nites and fulfill your career now and play later when you have that good paying job to enjoy freedom and plenty of time with your family and best friends and not worry about God bless and I know it’s rough and putting food on the table For your family and kids can get expensive and hard at times

My condolences and I went through the same thing for 3 years as my life changed in a second when my mom got hit in the head and fell head first in time square New York City to get a phone call from her best friend and found out she had to be rushed to the hospital due to bleeding in her brain (anurism that they couldn’t stop the bleeding in her brain and day after day myself, my wife had to drop our jobs. Take my son at that time that was around 5 years old out of school he was in and not even able to even get a refund from the school he was in that coat me $1200 a month. Long story short has to leave my job at memorial Sloan Kettering cancer hospital and be there every day. Lucky I had my wife to support me emotionally and mentally that kept me going but financially then I was broke and no one to help me or anyone there to pick me up and gave up the job I loved dearly and most I enjoyed but I had to decide work or be there every day at north shore hospital to hear her what she would say and I was her power of attorney and it was hard on me, my son and my wife. I asked at that time from memorial Sloan cancer hospital if I could take some time off and explained what was going on and they fired me just like that. Job gone but family was there every day waiting day and nite for my mom to open her eyes in hopes her brain bleeding was finally contained but it was not. You know how hard it is now to get hired with hood pay and explain to these people why I have a gap over and over again and every-time I cry thinking I could of done more for my mom or saved her? After 4 years it was hard again to always be there and run when they called to give them consent for another surgery in her brain and money was running out and decided to invest my life savings in the stock market and lost 80% of my life savings ( that was close to 1 million 400k at the end I was totally broke and my wife held the family down and she worked two jobs and she was lucky to find work that paid good and work from home till this day. Finding a good job and employer is not easy. I’m 54 years old experienced in phlebotomy and clinical medical assistant that used to make a good living , good pay and loved to work long hours and always a team player. Best I can advice to everyone is stay strong, positive and be greatful and what you have and appreciate the people that support you and your dreams the most and don’t let anyone tell you you can’t start over, yes it might be hard but it is possible and just like growing up and hungry to have finer things in life we all at one time or more have to start over again like myself and learn from our mistakes and never out your self down. I went thru hard depression for many months but I fought through it and now I feel like a bull with super sharp horns ready to take on anything and anyone that stands in my way of success. Starting over is not the end it’s just hard in the start and it will benefit you like it has me to break tall barriers that are in my way. As for my mom not a day or nite goes by I don’t think about her and wish she was still with me but I know she still with me in my heart and soul and I know I have to regroup , re focus and get back my life I love most and get back to helping patients feel better and give it again 100%
