Wanted:Good Thoughts, Positve Energy and Good Karma
Just when you think things can’t get any worse they usually do. Since September of 2004 my family has been living under a dark cloud and I am at a loss on how to dispel it. Allow me to lay out a chronology for you and maybe someone can give me an idea on how to get out from under this dark cloud.

Details behind cut (this is not for the faint of heart)In September of 2004 we lost my Father-In-law to a stroke. At the same time my Uncle almost died from throat cancer and my Grandmother was hospitalized with congestive heart failure. In November we lost Angela’s Great Uncle Roy to cancer. After that, I’m not real sure when, we lost Angela’s Great Aunt Nellie. My Great Aunt Irene is undergoing chemo for Cancer (not sure what kind). My Grandma had to put her 17 year old cat to sleep in January. We lost a second cousin of Angela’s to a heart attack. The cancer they thought they had cured my uncle of spread to the rest of his body and he finally passed away after months of suffering 3 weeks ago. And then just today, my cousin Harry who lives in Wisconsin, fell head first 18 feet onto cement. The way I heard it, he was working on a roof and he slipped, caught a rafter with his hand but the rafter gave way and he fell forehead first into the cement. His arms were dislocated and his wrists shattered because he tried to protect his face. His face was shattered and his forehead caved in. He was lucky that the way he hit, his nasal cavity was not driven into his brain. They have pulled his forehead out and reset the nasal cavity but the rest of his skull is to fractured at this point and it will have to knit on it’s own. At this time he is in ICU in critical condition.

These are just the things that have happened directly to my family. This list does not include the good friend whose wife was killed in a car accident that he barely survived. This does not include the 2 or 3 people I know at work who have had deaths in their families. This does not include the teacher I had in High School that has passed. I have been exposed to so much death and suffering in the last 14 months I can hardly stand it and I feel like there is a curse on my family and it extends to those who I have contact with. I am in need of some positive energy and some good thoughts and prayers. Any help would be greatly appricated.
