I just told my mom we are expecting # 7, and she got so angry. At first she said, "This is a joke, you are kidding." Then she said that I must have been an accident and she did not want to hear about it. Lovely, isn't it?
Now, why did I tell her? With the sad news about my cousin, I thought she might be happy about a new life. I'm sure going to hear it from my brothers tonight
Maybe I should post this on the prayer forum. Please pray I can say the right words to them, if I decide to answer the phone. It's taking all I have to fight back tears.
God bless you all. Love,

Oh, Ruth, that is so, so sad.
Put an "away message" on your answering machine and turn off the ringer for a day or two.
You have my prayers.

Ruth, I am so sad to hear this, what a great suffering and from one so close! I am just reading your thread for your poor cousin, I really feel for all of this.
I will offer my Communion tomorrow, for you, your mother and your cousin's soul and his family.
