    I'm going to spare the majority of you guys the details but i'm not sure how much one person can endure.

    Is there a calculation or an APP for determining a breaking point?

    You'd think an extended vacation would supply the reserve tank with enough to get through the next few dilemmas but i've been proven incorrect, once again.

    My grandmother fell last week, broke her leg, received surgery, now has complications and i've been informed she's going down quickly. Now, my grandmother is fairly close to me but not someone is talk to a lot, but............it's enough to send me back into a tail spin.

    Again, when does the negative karma from my past actions say I've paid my dues?

    While I understand what you’re saying, I don’t think karma is part of her falling. I can relate to her being close to you, as mine (my last grandmother/91) and my grandfather (RIP) helped raise us as children.
    I do hope she recovers. I tell the guys who still have grandparents to cherish them while they can.

    I think you need to stop thinking that your past actions are causing you negative karma. The would be my first suggestion. I believe in law of attraction so the more you think about your past causing you problems now the more it will likely happen.

    The issue with your grandmother really sucks, Ive been there with my grandfather. You just have to understand its nothing you did or could do now to change it.

    Tomorrow is a new day, start it out on a positive and don't let anything change it. You are in control.

    I don't sit fully in the optimist camp either but this is valid. Your past may catch up with you in some ways but it most definitely did not cause your grandmother's decline in health.

    My grandfather died a year ago. My grandmother went this past June. Like my parents, I never really knew them or had a solid relationship. However, they loved my kids and appreciated visiting with them when we could get to Chicago.

    I'm sorry to hear you're having another test but, remember, it's just that. A test. You'll get through it.

    Positive vibes for both you and your grandmother.

    You guys should know by now that I'm bright enough not to blame my grandmother's decline on my past.

    Like Saliva boy stated, I'm referring more towards the testing department. It's another notch on the cherry tree!

    Thanks, homies, for the encouraging words. Now that I've played "poor me" when can I expect that detail?

    besides, different issues. i'm not saying they're bigger than mark's or that i'm more important or that my issues are totally unique. well, actually, that's not true. i am more important because, why not? :cool:

    I concur with what everyone here is saying; it ain’t karma, it ain’t God’s punishment. Sometime things happen that you have no control of. Do what’s best/right with the things you can control. The kids, work, personal responsibility. The past is the past. We’re here for ya.

    You can be here for him. I’ll just keep peeing on his tires and spit sbining his truck.

    You can do that while I hug him and turn his view away from the truck. Can you get the Maxtrax off his truck for me while you’re at it?

    :( This has nothing to do with Karma.....neither does anything else you are dealing with.

    The fall is devastating and heart breaking. I hope she improves and quickly.


    Did you learn from your past actions? Did you better yourself? Have you changed? If the answer to all of this is yes.....then i HIGHLY doubt it's Karma. God (if you believe in Him) NEVER gives you more than what you can handle. So, lean on your friends and family for sport.....THAT'S PART OF WHY THEY ARE HERE.:D

    YOU GOT THIS! KEEP YOUR CHIN UP! FRIENDS....FAMILY....THEY ARE YOUR SUPPORT SYSTEM......USE THEM!

    Sounds good. I avoid stitches too. I’d rather just butterfly it and wrap it up.
