As of Monday they will be sending me back after one week off to Chemotherapy. I will also get a few steroid shots, well last time it took me about a week to recover but with the steroid shots and the weather and the chemo; I just don't know how long it will take me to get moving again from out of the ill feeling and sleeping not eating thing. So just ask BigDawg he is on my facebook and he also has my cell number with another lady who has my cell but she is busy all the time.
Monday will be boring sitting there all day I like the texts I sleep some and I keep choking having to be shut down and restarted and then heart starts hearting the paddles sit next to me and ....we wait and start up again. Oh well I'll get through it and I wish that any of you that have belief in God almighty just say a pray for me . That is the best thing you may do.
Hugs to all....
Susie
why only facebook....its mainly family thats why I do my best to always touch in there.

So here we go again I'm in a suck time....
Apr 26, 2009 | Views: 209
Filed under: 1962 Corvette Chevy (My Red Dream comes true!)
So I go for the beautiful ride and here I am that evening in such pain and in the morning I want to cry. Is this what all the back surgeries did to me last year?
Damn I'm falling into a severe depression, and it is really hard fighting it.
My son (I' happy for him got a fantastic job in southern Georgia almost intpo Florida) MY ONLY SON!! My son I raised for 10 years on my own. I'm freaking out mom here is in tears, happy for him, yet sad to see him go and know he has a lot of tuition fees to pay back but he will be fine on that he will be making good money by far.
But now to take my rides away in the vette? What the heck ..I take my wheelchair everywhere we go and I must use it, but now I'm saying I'll have to take a pillow to put under me and against my back also to try to take the shock off my back. <
My legs did not move at all this am, it took a good 1/2 hour to get my back and legs going so I could grab onto my cane and slide down on my butt to the kitchen.
My brother in my photos is sick now too. I took him to the airport after moms birthday and his foot was swollen he is a insulin diabetic who is a big time work out guy eats right is very careful. He lilves in Tampa sold his home in St Pete to rent this until his new home was finished in Costa Rica, now here he is a t home foot cut open to the bone packed ...pics i n him...and MRSA again on his head. He is so handsome and he has many girl-friends...friends...but he never took one as a wife or girlfriend after his terrrible divorse from the bitch of the south...Never knew what personality would come into the door. Dang I was laughing at this girl with her boobs hanging out she was an older girl and ugly as heck in the face just had big boobs, and as I giiggled I hit my hubby he laughed my brother got an eye full lol, and his wife...oh hell she was jealous and went home. Dumb blonde. Glad she is gone.
So here I am helping my mom with bills, helping my brother the best I can with support helping my son....stretched to the max and depressed. It was one yr ago on the 24TH of this o month dad left me. Mom is ill, Parkinsons, she forgets my younger brothers are a waste of time they don't help they just take take take. My sister is a jealous take take taker...freak she just wants mom to move in her rental so she can control the little money mom has.
Stress...yes I'm at my max.
I want a car for myself. I want to go cry and just sit and cry more. No one quite understands they tell me to look at this bright thing or that but my health is what is really freaking me out and my families. I have raised some money to work with one service dog I will raise some more to help my mom get one and trainit properly. I see I'm going to have tp get a large dog most likely next year I'm not too keen on that.
Hugs to all thanks for letting me dish.
Enjoy the photo of my dad his brother and the 57 t-bird my Uncle once had.

Corvettes in Carlisle PA
Apr 3, 2009 | Views: 541
Filed under: 1962 Corvette Chevy (My Red Dream comes true!)
I only know one corvette for sure that will be there on motortopia. I'm just wondering if any of the corvette people are going this August? If so let me know and I will make a list of everyone and maybe we can all meet up? I think it would be really nice to meet one another.
I'm looking for an inexpensive trailer CLOSED first I cannot drive out there due to my condition and I cannot even ride that far. So I need my van and trailor it. So if you hear of a good trailer good price my anniversary is coming it would be an awesome girft to my hubby...that we would both enjoy.
So lets start by telling me are you going to Carlisle C5 chick...I know you will go Dawn thats a given you usually get the same spot. I would be with the solid akle club.
Oh you can leave a comment on any of photos LOL if you wish...Just incase you have forgotten your old lost friend Susie I know I have been terribly busy. Things are starting to slow down a bit . I'm going off now to get an air-card for my laptop and do all my running....We have a birthday for my mom, she will be surprised I hope it cheers her up from all the stress this year. April 24th my dad passed, I had a stroke due to stress two weeks prior, and then I missed his burial due to infections 103.2 fevers stayed lived in and out of Cleveland clinic for months, got a blood clot in my arm, came home with a IV., then recovered, new meds more meds. Started my chemo wworks great. Then mom fell broke her hip cold not get to breavement, sunday school was lost without dad and could not have time to grieve for him, got her fixed up and spent most of the time with her days/nights for 12 weeks, found her Parkinsons added more problems added more meds, found blood clots after argueing with the Drs. about her told them I would not leave until an ultra-sound was done. Now she is grieveing yet she is on her own I'm there still during the day a lot but she is getting back to the norm., just found out my brother was stealing from her. One thing after another..Clobber time!!!
Soooooooooo.....I'm back this year will be great and God has sunshine and angels all around me.
Lets go start having fun!
Hugs again Susie

I have been busy sadly again more problems.My mom with
Parkinsons and she fell broke her hip. Surgery was yesterday, I have been in the hospital for 2 days with her. I'll have to grab a air-phone for the internet. I have to transfer mom after two more days to rebab, then after rehab I will stay with her for a week. She unfortunately tripped over a log pile my brother in law set in front of her patio doors.
Then I will be going on a new medicine for myself called retuxin IV, its a cancer drug the often use for other things. If you have anyone on it or have tried it please contact me and let me know I would lke to talk before my IV Infusion on the 29TH it its a very dangerous drug.

Missing Loved Ones During Holidays and that first Year
Nov 30, 2008 | Views: 331
Filed under: 1962 Corvette Chevy (My Red Dream comes true!)
My father my was the greatest. He smiled through all of his cancer in his brain, lungs, liver, spine, everything organ in his body evry bone was hit, he continued helping others handing out food at the church, ringing thebell at stores during the winter to help the salvation army. Even the Dr. said he was a brave man smiling always, knowing he was dying. He fought hard. Through this cancer, he was a Korean War Hereo, and a father of 5 children with a great wife. I never ever heard him raise his voice to my mother neither of them ever fouoght they loved each othe4r since the day she slipped out of college and eloped across state lines.
Now through the Holidays like some of you this maybe your first year too without a parent or spouse or child a hurt that you never had to feel before.
Lets say a prayer to all of you and to me, give us strength to lean on one another and to not forget that their spirit is with us. Doesn't stop us from the tears doesn't stop the pain but maybe just maybe it will remind us we are not alone...."Dad I miss you forever your little girl I'll see you in Heaven someday.
With all my love ..Susie

I believe I had my last appointment at the Cleveland Clinic this past week. I pray I don't see that place ever again.
I've been missing my father terribly, finally finally I got to his grave. I went by myself and really lost it. He was a friend a father and I could ask him or tell him anything he loved me and he would always be there for his little girl. No matter what.
My mom is the same, so now I find myself driving more often 45 minutes a couple times a week to her home. She will eventually move towards me a bit more. Maybe closer to my sister that is 5 years older then I. Her husband and her have a rental home one of many that is right by them the yards meet in the back from the side street. It would be nice, I would know my mom is safe. She has Parkinsons and it is bad enough that she needs not to be alone too much longer.
Anyway I'm are working on remodeling the family room and setting a tiny area up wiith a wine bar and some unique items . So if you have a wine from your state that is unique and not costly that has a photo of something interesting let me know, I would love to have the bottle for my colllection, I have bottles from all over the Islands that I have traveled and a few cruises on ships I just save them for something to talk about. If you have something else unique let me know I maybe interested in a purchase ..thank you.
The Corvette is getting a few new toys updates on it revamped to be in that more perfectionist state.
The cabin will be last to e worked on the inside needs to e torn and revamped.
(Thank you Danna lov for calling today and reminding me everyone is wondering how I am doing). Well my friends I think I'm doing pretty darn good.
HUGS!!!

I will be released from back surgery center surgeon in end of July. But I'm way ahead of their way of going about things. Can't keep a good lady down!
Went to two shows the first two this year and already placed a first!!! Neat trophy its a cast metal one with three deminsional look....
I had the hood finally matched it was a tuff match...a 1295.00 lesson, replaced the carpeting and the floor mats felt they had their wear, I could not think of anything else to add except a locking gas cap, and a AIR CLEANER COVER MADE FOR THE 62 VETTE....ha!
Well I sure hope to meet some new friends now again and keep in touch with the others.....So Hello again and Hugs to all!

Filed under: 1962 Corvette Chevy (My Red Dream comes true!)
Since the photo of dad and me on my sight has been taken he has lost 35 pounds 5'9" Sadly the last few weeks he has been in the hopsital my mother crys all night i can hear her in her room , I stay all night not wanting her to be alone. Friday he will be coming home I know by the Drs. it is because his kidneys and everything in his body is shutting down. We will wait until Hospice nurse tells her, but some how I think she already feels it in her heart.

Valentines Day
Feb 13, 2008 | Views: 457
Filed under: 1962 Corvette Chevy (My Red Dream comes true!)
I hope you enjoy this photo as much as I do. It was taken at Christmas it is my dad and my little boy..(my little son is 6'3" 200 pounds and he works out all the time runs always, very sports-minded and is a honor roll student or a Deans list student at times in Industrial management with chemical degree background, he will be 27 soon) . He will graduate in June of 2009 , yes he like others goofed off a bit in the beginning. Has quite the resume now with ~ helping the cancer fight raising money through student teaching at the college he attends. So anyone looking in their business in the future please let me know he is looking were the money and insurance will take him and thats his goal.
*My father has lost about 55 -65 pounds since that photo. And doesn't even look like the same man. He is very proud of his grandson it's great to see the success your children have accomplished and I am pleased that dad has seen my son in his full element of happiness towards a wonderful future with lots of loans to pay back...(lol) He is not too proud to start at the lower end of a job and learn more he speaks that you can never learn enough.
Hugs to all

Dad is paralized on one side now his cancer has twisted into the vertebrea of his neck. Of course it is everywhere in every organ as it is. I don't think and I kind of hope because I watch the pain that it will not drag on another few months.
I have been back and forth got opinions in Colorado and back here at Cleveland Cllinic I have still not decided on what to do with my health issue. I'm very scared it will be my 7th surgery on my back since I was 17. MRSA is very high in the hospitals, my chances of paralization are getting higher, and I have a lot of scare tissue as it is and very very low immune system from the other physical challanges I have. I will be making a decision in the next few weeks. It depends on my father also. But I cannot hardly stand the pain f breathing any longer it hurts way too much and the pounds are dropping.
I love the fact you know nme already as just Susie the girl with the red corvette. I was once told many years ago, do you want to be known as the girl with handicaps or Susie the you, you see. I said I have no handicaps. The Dr. may say different and people too, but noit to me I can do anything I put my mind to it. (always have been a dare=devil/) LOL
I hope you enjoy my photo of my sissy (sister) and I.
Hugs to All!!!
