Triple bouts with bad news
As my last blog stated my luck could be changing well... that isn't true anymore. What seemed like things were moving onward are now back to square 1. I interviewed for that job, didn't get it. I called the other veterinary clinic I interviewed at and was told that I would be considered for part time, instead of full time (which is partially good news). And lastly, the kidney front is now back to square 1, because my donor is now not a candidate to donate a kidney. So, I had suffered at least a day or so of depression. But I am lucky to have a very good friend who cares very much about me and my family, as she is a very good friend of my family. She snapped me out of the depression phase and told me not to give up. Mind you, that felt good to me at that time, I wanted SO BAD to give up.
I am at my withsend now, because everyone I know is having goodluck, while I have to work extra hard to find a job, to hopefully get out on my own and be more independent. It's my turn soon, I HOPE. I just don't know when or where it could happen. But I am using my resources to hopefully get my story out there for my need for a kidney transplant.

Dana: I appreciate the prayers ALWAYS. And, I know that the Christmas season can be full of miracles, but the one miracle I would like to happen doesn't look like it's going to happen for me, until after the holidays or even into next year.

Yes Cheryl: St. Francis was my confirmation name. And, I appreciate that, thanks! I know for sure that St. Francis wouldn't want me to give up my dream of working with animals.

Isn't St. Francis your confirmation name??? I'll say a novena for you to this powerful, wonderful saint, with whom you share your passion for animals with.
