I've been trying to get out a little more to see my friends. Being a mom doesn't allow for a lot of free time to see friends but after two and a half years, I am trying to make an effort. Tonight I caught up with two of my old co-workers. Things it seems haven't change and are in fact worse. I feel so grateful I got out when I did. I'm not exactly sure I have full closure on the situation yet because I still feel hurt but I do take comfort in the fact that my work life is 100% better since leaving. I feel bad for the people left there a they just are not being treated right. It doesn't seem fair that certain people can get way with being mean and hostile while nice people just trying to do their jobs get hurt. Hopefully, something will change and free that group of the hostility that plagues it. Besides talking about old work times, we laughed about the future. It's nice being out with friends that understand you and like being with you. It's good for the soul to have a little bit of time put aside for friends.
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
