I'm glad to hear that your Mom's bleeding is taken care of but through the ordeal her kidneys are worse. I have a friend whose mother is on dialysis and she has gotten along with it very well (she even showed me where she's hooked up during the dialysis!) It takes a few hours every other day and she feels so much better after having it done. Your Mom will probably feel a lot better when she does get on dialysis. I know that it's a worry but she'll be fine. You're such a good daughter, Janet!

As for your son, he's going to be fine too. Just remember what it was like to be a teenager yourself. Loosen up and enjoy having him. Worrying about him all the time is NOT fun! I try to think of what's important in the scale of life with morals, safety, and their religion, being at the top of the list. Then everything else falls in line below those three things. Then when something comes up I ask myself in the big scheme of things is it really important to fuss over or can I let them go and have fun. We're not to worry about the days that are ahead. Just take care of today.

The Bible says:

Matthew 6:34

34"So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
