My Paper

I have thought about what to write my research paper on, and I have came up with what a better idea than just write about something that you already know about. Lupus! I have been diagnosed with lupus since 1998. It has effected my everyday life and my actions. I have been really sick at times and not even know why! It is a weird disease to have, but I am lucky enough to get it, lol!
I wanted to write about something that is personal to me and this would it! I hope I can only use my information in a way to inspire others and help others understand what this disease will do to you!

How bad that I wish my grandpa was still here. This Dec.1 it will be 4 years that he has been gone and it still like it was yesterday! He died in a car wreck and he was flown to a near by trauma hospital and it took us about 30 Min's. to get to him. Before we reached him he had already had 5 surgery's just trying to save him.  They told us that they had done everything that they could!  We were all standing around in the room and they took him off the support and he still had a heartbeat! After we told him that he could go and we would take care of grandma his heartbeat slowly faded! At 4:40pm he passed. I just stood there in shock and in confusion! Everyone left the room. I didn't I stood there and held his hand and talked to him!
We miss him he was such a great person. Always had jokes and always had some story to tell us. He picked on me the worse bc I always would pick back! My youngest daughter was 4 months old and I regret that she will never meet him until Heaven.  But everyday I live that day over and over again! I cant get it out of my head and deal with it! So Happy Thanksgiving to my paw-paw in heaven and know I love you and miss you so much.

Welcome!

Hello this is very new to me as well as it may be for other classmates of mine.  I would just like to say welcome to my blog and I hope we can learn how to do this new thing in our classroom,LOL!   I think this will be a interesting tool for us to use to get to know one another and help each other with concerns or problems we may experience during this writing class.  I hope I will achieve my goal to know how to write an A paper or at least a B paper! Well I can't wait to hear from you all and get started with our blog's!
