So What has happened to the Rine Family?



Ethan and Buster at Ryan's house.


Mrs. Jeannie and Ms.Bea on the last day of school!





I really don't know were to begin. The last two months have been crazy to say the least. We sold our home and moved out of Arlington May 29th. The three of us were sad to leave our home but excited for our new adventure. We lived with Ryan(aka very good friend) for 12 days..it was very interesting. Our house and Justin was still in the works which created alot of stress for Greg and I. I also was driving from Justin to Arlington for Ethan's last week of school. I was beginning to wear very thin. I had Ethan's therapies also so I was constantly moving never stopping literally. Ordering Ethan's wheelchair was alittle overwhelming...I was sad because I would be preferring to pick out a bicycle, but I am over that now. Ethan does not want one but I have been talking about it and he is starting to like the idea...a little. I think I traveled close to 700 miles in 5 days and I was done. On, Saturday June 4th something changed for me...a experience that I will never forget and will never let happen again. Ethan and I had gone to a "End of Year Party" on Arlington. I was extremely tired and not feeling myself but I kept on going. My vision was impaired and my left side was beginning to feel numbness. So, i decided the best thing was to get on our way to Justin....well, I didn't make it there. I was driving on HWY 121 and Glade Rd.and I could no longer drive. I was soooo very scared...Ethan was with me and he remained calm...luckily my oldest brother Stewart came to my rescue and called 911...Greg was on his way home to Justin. Everyone said that I had a stroke....when I got to the hospital they ran several tests and they kept me there for 3 days. More info. to come......

I'm so sorry that happened Marissa. I know things have been super crazy for you guys with selling your house, finding a new one, and just dealing with everyday life. Us moms have to take care of ourselves too and that can be hard to do sometimes. I hope that things begin to settle down a bit and you can just enjoy the summer. Please let me know if you need anything at all.
