FYI I had a call from mama demanding to get her car back so she can take herself where ever she wants to go. I told her she couldn't have it per doctors orders. She said she was going to kill herself. She hung up. Tina and Dale met me out there. She wasn't in the house, her hearing aids were left there along with her pocketbook. Tina and Dale knew she hadn't been on the road to Baldwin and I hadn't seen her coming from the opposite direction. We decided to look for her at the cemetery. She was there, but on the other side of the fence with a young boy walking towards the end where daddy's grave is. We went over there and the boy had already started walking back towards the woods. Tina caught up with him to find out what was going on while Dale and I walked mama around to the front of the cemetery. She was about to have a heat stroke.She was shaky, red faced and winded. She had gotten lost in the woods and ended up down Boyd Rd. at their house. She told them she was going to the cemetery so the young boy was showing her the way to get there.We got her home, she took a cold shower, Tina fed her and called Mama's doctor (PCP). He said to take her to the ER so she could be Baker Acted, if she didn't agree to it then call the police and have them Baker Act her. He said he couldn't do it without seeing her. We decided that we want her to be seen by the Neurologist she has an appointment with if possible. So, she came home with me. We knew she couldn't be left alone. I went by CVS to fill her prescriptions on the way here. She is 11 days too early for them to be filled. I asked her what happened to them and she was totally confused. As I went through and explained that she has taken 9 valiums more than she was suppose to and whatever amount too many of the others, she came up with an answer. She said the rest of them are put away at home. I asked her where at home and why would she do that. She couldn't tell me anything that made sense. Obviously, she has taken more meds than she was suppose to. I will take her to her PCP the 1st thing in the morning. This is just an update so everyone will know what is going on now. I don't know what will happen tomorrow but as soon as we know something I will let you all know. There is one other little problem. She said Jessica was in Ga. getting money from her in laws so she can buy a trailer and put it out there on mama's property. I called and left Jessica a message but haven't yet heard back. It's our understanding that Nassau County will not allow this. So please let us know if this is accurate information. I would hate for Jessica to be counting on something that mama has said to her. We all know that mama is not thinking logically and can't be responsible for any promises or agreements she might make on her own accord right now. Please let me know if there is anyone who disagrees with or didn't understand that mama is in this condition. Feel free to call here if you want to talk to mama. My number is 879-9621

To all:
I was very hurt tonight by my Aunt Tina and Aunt Gail claiming that I was trying to steal from Granny. I would never in my wildest dreams take advatage of her. I have only ever wanted to help in any way I could. She told me she wanted to get money to take care of some things around her house, she asked me to talk to the Finacial people on how she could do that b/c she couldn't hear them, when she got the papers she asked me if I would just make sure she did it right and take her to fax it and that is what I did. As far as us getting a trailer out there, we were getting help from my mother-in-law, which we would of had a morgage paypent on. Granny asked me if I would like to move out there and I said of coarse I would, I love Granny and thought that everyone would much rather see her at home than in a nursing home. All I did was try to help and I get accused of being a THEIF, a DRUG ADDICT, and called STUPID. All I can say is GOD and Papa knows what my intentions were when it comes down to everything niether one will question anything I did. And I also swear to everything that is good that my MOM in NO way was trying to decieve anyone in anything, no one knew about the money thing, and the trailer thing was just mentioned. She has only wanted to know what was going on with her Mama, like anyone would. I have never disrespected my family(yes here recently I have interupted Aunt Tina, but she has alot to say and I could not get a word in edge wise. It seems to soon to be taking Grannys things out of her house, when they don't even know what exactly is wrong with Granny. Granny don't deserve this. Nor do I deserve to be treated this way. I will keep my family in my prayers as I always have. I can't say what Papa's feelings are about Granny, but I can say he is ashamed at how my Mom and I have been treated.
When I was there seeing Granny Thursday and got to go in with the doctor, he was concerned about getting Granny's depression under control, he had switched her medications and said he wanted to keep her until he saw the reaction to it.

Hi! This is the email we all recieved titled "suicide threat". In it; it says that Granny overdosed on 9 valiums . That is why I asked Friday night, why you all were thinking she did! I wasn't trying to be a smarta*s!
