An ambulance moments ago rushed my dad and mom to the emergency room,they said only one person could ride in the ambulance(my mom went with him and me and my brother stayed home and started cleaning up to get our minds off things) I rushed to my bible and started reading Psalms 91 and I prayed to God, and then a moment after that I called my mom and got updates about my dad she said the blood pressure machine I used to check his blood here at the house was wrong because I didn’t check it right,I also used my meter to check his blood sugar and it was 103(I did all of this before minutes before my mom called 911)

It all started my mom was sleeping,my brother was in his room and it was about 12 something at night earlier) I was watching WWE videos on you tube and then I heard a big crash,so I rushed up the basement stairs to see what caused that noise and I saw my dad had passed out and his body hit the glass table and it looked like a small tornado has came through the living room,everything that was on the table was scattered out on the floor. I rushed into my dad’s room and my mom was already up(the noise had woken her up) and I told her to call an ambulance cause my dad passed out(I felt the feeling of death in me)

She felt my dad’s forehead and he was sweating and his body was very hot,he looked very pale,we had to help him walk, and he said he felt light headed.I checked his blood pressure and it was 62 over 25 and his pales was 59.

It is 2:50 A.M here in Chicago and I don’t feel like going to sleep,I did cry a little bit.
So doctors and nurses and hospital staff are doing all kinds of tests on him and like my mom said everything is coming back fine,his blood pressure was a little bit high,sugar was normal.

Even though my profile name is Mr.Funeral that is just here on Yahoo and I don’t want to learn my dad has died cause I don’t wanna go to anymore funerals unless God calls him home,I asked God not to call him home. My dad is just 50
Update

My dad and mom just got home and he is fine and they said he had something called Syncope,I am so happy.

When I was a kid I think I remember my mom telling me something about that rain and tornadoes couldn’t happen at the same time. Is this (or anything like it) true? And if so, why?

Technorati Tags: mom, rain, tornadoes

does any one know what happens in the end?there is a really funny story to why i didnt see the end. my mom and i went to the parks mall in arlington, tx, and we were at the poinnt where the bad guys had gotten the gold thingie when they turned off everything, and i mean everything and announced that there was a tornado watch where we were so we needed to get to the shelter.so got out of the thearter on the 2nd flore and went to the 1st flore and all the way around the mall. when we got tothe shelter they said that it was full. so ironically enough thay told us to go back to the amc arfind a safe place in sears. so here i am freakin out so my mom and i went to the blanket section but they were held up by bid sheets of glass.so my mom thought, the bathroom! we went to find the bathroom witch was of coarse next to the POWER TOOLS!!and we waited and waited. we called my g-pa and g-ma and they said that there was a tornado heading our way accross lake arlington so we went to the bathroom
and waited for them to call of the warnind though they locked us in for another hour. longstory short i leave you with one tip and one guestion. never go to a movie on a humid and rainy day with tornado warning and expect not to get trapped. and what happens on the end

I am 17 and I need to figure out what I want to do for the rest of my life, my career. I wanted to be an Architect, but now I’m second guessing it. I am taking it as an elective at my high school, and its a lot of fun, but I know once i get to college, theres so much more to it than just making up floor plans.
Before Architecture, I wanted to become a Meteorologist. I kinda still do. I have an interest in weather and Natural Disasters(like tornadoes and earthquakes). My mom keeps telling me she can’t picture me in either career. I’m not sure if I can either all so much now I think about it.
So, What career is for me? I like drawing, designing, deciding where things go, music, weather, sports, helping others, nature, the environment, etc. I don’t like fashion and history.
I know for one, that I don’t want to become a nurse or doctor or dentist or vet or related fields. I am like, terrified of needles and stuff like that.
Thankyou for your responses

right now theres a storm outside bigger than any storm ive ever seen.

and now theres a tornado warning for my area… im so scared because ive never, ever seen really bad weather in my life ,and my dog is crying because of the thunder…

how do you calm yourself down when theres scary weather? considering i have really bad panic attacks and had just calm down until i woke up to my dog crying…

i know a sound like a little kid, but jeez im a southern california resident all my life, the worst ive seen was small earthquakes.. nothing like this rain, and never had a TORNADO warning so close to me! and the tree outside my window is looking pretty scary…
its not just a little rain, my street is flooded and im stuck at the house… :/

sorry, i sound stupid but ive literally never ever been in weather this bad.. i just need some reassurance.
we dont have a basement… :X or a room without windows… :X

where is the next safest place to go? cause we got an automated call from the city telling us to be careful and theres one of those clouds a few cities away…

whats safer… a bathtub, or a shower with a door? me and my mom need to know what to do if we have to hide… or would hiding under my bed work best? but i dont think we’d both fit down there… i dunno, they never gave us tornado drill practice when i was in elementary school or whatever, because we’ve never had to worry about it..!

We live in a terrible trailer park! Nobody is screened before they move in (there has been pedophiles and there’s still drug dealers out here), they don’t keep up ALL of the park, or anything! What I mean is, there is a long road, that leads to a dead end, about 3/4 of the way down the road, there’s mail boxes – supposedly, the road after the mail boxes is ‘private’ so everybody here has less rights than the people that live before the mail boxes. One of those lesser rights is the fact that the landlords won’t pay for a snow plow to remove the snow past the mail boxes (they plow up to the mail boxes, then stop – literally!!) Now because of that, when cars drive on that, the snow got packed – making the road VERY slippery…yesterday, my mom went to check the mail and slipped, fell backwards, and broke her wrist… (she has severe rheumatoid arthritis, too, so she’s in an awful lot of pain)..My mom had a brain aneurysm last may so we can’t really afford this bill (she went to the hospital, though)
Another one of the lesser rights is, (my neighbors have a dog that is forced to live in a very small kennel 24/7, with no stimulation what so ever – sometimes he’s not fed for days, etc.) one day, last summer, he got out of his kennel, (my dog was outside with me and my family – on her cable tie out) and he ATTACKED my dog! If my brother (who is very strong) wasn’t there, my dog could be dead…The owners saw what happened, but all they could say was, "If you kill my dog, I’ll kill you" and they tried getting by with saying, "He was just playing…" I called the police immediately and all they could tell me was that because the road past the mail boxes (where I live) is private road, so they couldn’t do squat about it! They wouldn’t even do anything about the dog being abused/neglected in the first place! The landlords are ‘friends’/related to my neighbors so there’s nothing they would have done about it…..for the longest time, we couldn’t even blink when letting our {elderly} dog out to go to the bathroom – I couldn’t even walk her for goodness sake…because the neighbors dog would get out so many times a day! (Now the neighbors boarded off the kennel completely so there’s no getting in or out of the kennel…except for a gate they have some locks attached too…)
As if it couldn’t get worse; the landlords son patrols the park (with illegal lights flashing on his car – there was a time he was pretending to be a cop, too..) and all he does is look for trouble (there’s a lot of retarded people out here – he picks fights with them, the cops favor the landlords son, the retarded people wind up in jail over night..). AND every single summer (particularly when we have tornado warnings) he’ll come and lock the gate that lets us into the storm shelter (our only form of protection from a tornado..it’s so old, though, I don’t know if it’d even save us..)

What I’d like to know is if there’s ANYTHING, anything at all we can do to have SOME rights, or to be treated fairly, or SOMETHING!! It’s RIDICULOUS out here….This trailer park has some fairly new trailers in it that are being rented out…that is until you get to the freakin mail boxes…all the trailers after that SHOULD be condemned (rotting holes in the floor… ceilings leak in more than 5 different places throughout the trailer) and there’s well over 30 stray cats roaming outside (but that’s due to another neighbor – he brings cats in until they reach maturity; then they’ll either start spraying or going into heat – then the tosses them back outside or keeps them and lets them get pregnant over and over and over – then he tosses the kittens outside (after weaning..)!!!

What can we do about all of this (neglected dog, mom breaking her wrist due to lazy landlords, strays, our lesser rights, etc.)???

By the way thanks so much for reading through everything!
I’m not sure if I posted in the correct section – if I didn’t could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
If we *could* move we most certainly would, but we don’t have enough money….we looked at another place we could afford, but it did’t have enough bedrooms for all of us

theres this movie that used to be on fox family/abc family a lot, and it has something to do with a tornado. i only remember certain parts including a guy chasing the tornados and then there was another part where everyone was in a shelter and someone was holding a baby. there was an old lady who got injured by the tornados and someone picked her up in a car to get her to a hospital or shelter.i think someone had a car on top of them but that could be a whole other movie im thinking of. i also think there was a teenager and that baby that someone was holding was actually his half brother or sister. like i think his mom or dad remarried idk. any ideas?
Yes it is the night of the twisters, thank you! and omg i knew everyone was going to say "twister"

I was at the house I used to live at, and my brothers were in the basement playing with a "remote" tarantula. Then it came upstairs really fast. I was really scared for a second while my sister was just standing there looking at it! Then for some reason, the doorbell rang and it was my sister’s ex-best friend. She wanted to know if I’d buy an animal encyclopedia (I was obsessed with animals when I had this dream) and I wanted one but my mom said, "That’s what Wikipedia and the internet are for." (By the way, I had no idea what Wikipedia was, I was only 9 when I had this dream) So I took a step where she was and she was gone, then I walked a couple of steps down our sidewalk (on the left is a big flowerbed) and there was my same sister digging a foot-deep hole right underneath a tree where there were no flowers. I asked her what she was doing, and there was a tornado right about to hit our house (which i had known about before – and i was SOOOOO scared of tornadoes since i had been in one at 5) and she said, "I’m trying to take shelter from the tornado."
I had the dream three years ago, but what does it mean? It’s recurred more than once.

Ok. Well first of all, i need some help. I need someone to tell me what these dreams might mean. Some recurring dreams i have are

going to school when the sky is DARK and/or evening, and not being able to go home.

being in a situation where theres a tornado and i cant seek shelter.

And i ALWAYS basically every month for a year i have a nightmare where i am in a car driving on an endless road, in the middle of a wide field and there is a huge funnel cloud over head. The last one i had of that dream was worse, where the funnel cloud was replaced with a face and hands reaching down.

I do have history where i was OBSESSED with weather (tornadoes specifically) i have never encountered one, and my obsession has stopped more than a year ago, but i keep having dreams with them involved and all i feel is absolute fear, even though my interest a while back was simply interest, and i wasnt "scared" at all. i still am obsessed being whenever its cloudy or stormy/windy i think theres going to be a tornado and i live in the mountains!!! but any way the main question is WHAT DO THESE NIGHTMARES MEAN? Both of the dreams i described are ALWAYS happening atleast 90% of my dreams include tornadoes.
EXAMPLE OF A DREAM I HAD THIS MORNING, literally lasted 9 minutes.
then it changed to a scene where the parking lot was my "drive way" and i lived in a mansion, the sky still dark brown and misty. i was in a car driving to town, mist everywhere, like fog. I called my dad in the dream, as my mom drove on this wide road, with no trees besides like 3 dead ones. in the dream i asked my dad what was wrong with the sky he said there might be a tornado. i simply replied, then me and mom will meet u at work and we can watch the tornado. in the dream the tornado then appeared. I knew it was just a dream. i asked my mom "is this a dream" she replied, no. i decided to ignore the tornado on the side of the roade any way. we continued to drive to my dads work, the mountains larger than usual (this took place in my town) we could see our house from my dads work which isnt true in reality. We saw a tornado passing by.
at one of the mansions there was a dog. my mom told me to go play with the dog with my dog (i dont have a dog in real life either, and in the dream the dog was fake, like a toy) and so i went over to the dog and started playing with it. in the dream i knew the story behind that dog, it was born from a human and dog and had an extra chromosome (someone in the dream, maybe it was my inner self who told me that. i woke up after that.. it was 7:09 am and all of that happened in the matter of 9 minutes.
and in the backround the whole time was depressing, slow, melodic music. it reminded me of

People who have mobile homes.what do you think of them as far as price and value.I know my husband and i need to buy a storm shelter if there is a tornado,he would be stupid not to.but how do you tell people who live in brick homes or regular homes like friends and family that it is not that bad to buy a mobile home as far as price in a new home.My mom said that the septic tank it very pricey if you have to fix it,and i told her a repoe house you can get for 49 thousand which is pretty good if its a good size and she said,yea but that doesn’t come with land,which i know that.

Well, basically.. long story short, my moms single. I called her last night, and she seemed really stressed out in need of advice and I didn’t know what to tell her.

My brother is about six years old. I guess it started off as she had a disagreement with the teacher at his school- she was saying he was a problematic child, she even kicked him out of the classroom and into the hallway for laughing during a movie. So, the teacher said they had "social worker" concerns. My mom said they had a social worker come in and talk to my brother. They had him draw a picture of where he used to live.

He drew a tornado- because he saw a tornado in the state he lived in before. So they got all psychologist and freaking out. So my mom pulled him out of the school to move back home and put him in a school that wasn’t nuts.

So she took him to his dads that he hadn’t seen in a while, next thing you know she gets a call that his dad got pulled over with drug paraphenalia in the car- without a license. So my brother had to take a ride in a police car until someone came to pick him up.

My mom was freaking out and crying and worrying the whole time (she didn’t think his dad was stupid enough to do this and thought he was clean), and then when she picked my brother up ever since then shes had CPS calling her, and problems finding him a decent school.

My brother isn’t a problematic child, he’s just a six year old boy who’s a little hyper sometimes. They think he’s a problematic child because he didn’t feel like talking to them when they did they’re whole counseling session, and he didn’t really feel like answering their boring questions about "where did you live before" and "what’s your mom like" and blahblahblah, he just wanted to go play with the other kids in the class.

I’m not really sure what to tell her. Is CPS just going freaking nuts and trying to take everyones kids for no good reason??
I was informed recentally in Oregon state, if your child misses a day of school, if they find it necessary they can fine you 150 dollars. ridiculous.

I am 22 with a 4 month old and a 26-year-old toddler for a husband. (Love him to death tho). I am a SAHM mom and go to school online and volunteer at a horse camp 20 hours a week. My apartment is way less than picture perfect compared to my mom’s house. I am most definitely not a messy person nor do I enjoy living in a wrecked house. My hubby on the other hand, I do not think he notices. And when he tries to help, it seems to make things worse because he always has to rearrange EVERYTHING and only gets it about half way done before the day is over and he’s tired. I appreciate the effort, but it doesn’t really help and I get aggravated. Now our house is still all boxes, most of which is stuff that we can get rid of, and trash. Also, our bedroom is just a huge pile of clothes (most clean) because I do loads and loads of laundry everyday, but when I go to put it away the baby cries and I get tired. HELP! Please I need some serious advice of how to deal with a tornado husband and house.
Oh and I have tried the flylady website, but it just seems that if I get 15 min of cleaning done there is so much left over. And when my hubby gets home or stays home for a day, there is 10 times more cleaning to do. It is amazing how much of a mess one person can make.
The volunteering is mandatory for my tafdc benefits.

Yesterday I found two baby bunnies they looked lost so I tried to pick both of them up and one ran away. I kept the one I got and my mom wouldn’t let me keep it so I let it go. Later that day I found it where I let it go. So I kept it and put it in a tornado shelter at the side of my house. The next day at about 5:30 in the morning I went to check on them and there were three baby bunnies cuddled up together. So I made them shelter out of a shoebox for when it rains. But I don’t know what to feed them. I tried to give them to a local pet shop but they won’t take them. I also tried to give them to well trusted friends that are good with animals. But none of them could. So now it’s up to me to take care of them.

Those rigs and refineries hadn’t even been hit yet and gas prices shot up. My mom said some people were buying /gal gas before the hurricane hit because they were afraid it would go up even higher. One refinery near Houston was shut down. Decrease supply increase demand, therefore increasing price? I think that they just use any excuse to increase the prices. I was reading some article and it said that in some parts of the U.S. it’s nearing to /gal. What do you think?

well, we took him to the vet on monday. because he had a wound on his head that looked like a bite. (he was bitten friday, and attacked both friday and saturday) so anyways. we took him in and they gave him some medicine to help with pain and some antibiotics. well… tuesday i came home from school and when i came back inside he started scratching the side of his face… and all of a sudden he was bleeding from his face.. so i called my mom and told her to come home because he was bleeding pretty bad… she came hime and went right into the vet….. turns out it was ANOTHER bite wound but we hadn’t seen it.. and it got infected and just popped when he scratched it… they had to sedate him to clean it out. and he had to stay overnight at the vet because it (the wound) was draining…. so he’s home now.. with a very beautiful lampshade on his head.. he was so scared when we picked him up this morning that he wouldn’t walk up the stairs… i had to carry him… well here’s some pictures of what he looks like now….

this is his first wound that we saw.

So I live in lower Wisconsin. Maybe some of you saw on the news that we’ve had tornado and storm weather for almost two days now. Yesterday my area was struck with a flash flood. My basement still has five inches of water in it fourteen hours after the rain stopped.

My siblings and I tried to put all the boxes and stuff up, or bring them into the garage. But we found out after the power was back on that what we set some stuff on started to float and fell over. My mom’s home movies are super wet and probably won’t work.

What can I do to fix them? Is there any way I was dry them off and make them play again?

Or do I need to find a professional for her?

I don’t know this dog. I got these pictures in an email someone send my mom, talking about animals that survived a tornado. In any case, the dog looked so sweet and wonderful. I wanted to know if anyone would be willing to take a shot at guessing what kind of breed he/she is?

Tornado Sky

I love summer storms when the sky goes from robin’s egg to
Grayish lentil in two minutes.

I love how the first raindrops fall and you can hear each one,
Individually, like a staccato drum, or dog nails on a wood floor.

I love how then they speed up and run together, and it sounds
Just like a rain is supposed to sound, and just like when
Ten runners jog together on the same track.

I love how you look outside and the trees and the grass
Are so so green.
And how even the wood and the sky seems to follow.

I love how you can feel the electric in the air
And how it feels like you are waiting for something.

I love how it looks like the first colored pictures,
Or like a sepia tinged movie.
And how the world seems to shimmer.

Mom says if the sky is green it is a
Tornado Sky.

I love it.

I know a million people have probably asked questions about the Swine Flu already. I live in Texas, and Saturday I went to my friend Daniela’s Mom’s house to drop off her kids, so we could go to the movies. He step dad was there, and he just got back from Mexico, Mexico City to be exact. That is where the outbreak is I believe. He said he was sick like vomiting and diarrhea, but that was it. He had just got over it when we came over. I was worried when he told me, but there was nothing I could do once I was there. I didn’t know any of this until we got there. We were only there for about 30 min. Now I am worried because I am pregnant and he might have had it. Ever since yesterday I’ve been sneezing, coughing, runny nose, fatigue, nausea, and I have a low fever of 99.0. What should I do? Should I go to the hospital? It is storming outside and we have a tornado warning so I’m kind of hesitant to leave. Hospital is 20 min away, well the one that takes my insurance lol. If my fever gets to 101 I will definitely go though. I just want some opinions.
Hm…I thought they said 101. Okay well if it gets over 100.4 I will go!
