Helpless
Monday, January 28, 2008
I just feel so helpless. You know? Sitting in the hospital, pacing, praying, waiting... it just feels useless. I want Greenlee to know I'm there - we all want her to know we're there - but is that really going to help? We're not doctors... and even they don't have a cure. So what can I do? My best idea was a hair clip. That's not going to make her well. That's not going to get her out of that room. But what will? I just hate this. If there was a way I could fight what's attacking her - I'd do it in a second. At least then it would feel like I was trying... like I could beat this thing for her. But instead... we wait, we pray, we pace - we hope... for a miracle.
I'm tired of seeing you in the hospital, Kendall. I'd like to see you out and about with your husband or your boys (preferably, with all four of you together). I miss seeing you with Ian, and what ever happened to Spike's cochlear implant? Was the surgery successful? You've spent too much time in hospitals, and not enough time with your family, and it's very frustrating to me. I hope that changes soon.

Kendall,
I think it's admirable that you want to fight and do so much for your "friend", especially since we know she would NEVER do the same for you. In fact, she'd probably take the opportunity to steal your kids and your husband. But you do need to take care of yourself and your family. You're falling asleep on your feet, girl. Zach and the boys are your first priority. Don't let feelings of guilt, especially the ones put there by that hypocrite Jackson, make you more of the little witch's slave.

Kendall,
I think Zach had the right idea...it would be best to go home and spend time with your boys...and would do a world of good for you both. Jack and Aidan will both look after Greenlee.

I don't wish her dead, but I have to say I think you & Zach might be better off if she were. She will never be anything but trouble for you, Kendall. I already see bunches of it ahead for you & Zach thanks to her. I just hate to see you so upset over her & brushing Zach away. It's already started. He is your REAL
BEST FRIEND!! Team Slater!
Always Only You.

Kendall,
I love how passionate you are about the people you love, but sadly I believe in the end all of your efforts will be wasted. Greenlee has always lacked the same giving nature that makes you who you are, and I have no doubt as soon as she is well she will turn on you like a dime...especially when she finds out about you and Aidan.

I love you but I find it hard to feel sorry for someone who kidnapped your child and cause you to go into early labor that you almost lost Ian. but I can understand where you are coming from because you have such a big heart.

What you gave Greens was more than a hair clip. It was a connection...to you..
to Mona. You gave her a reason to fight. You gave her your love.

Kendall..In a case like this there really isn't anything to do but wait and pray. The actual miracle working is in the doctor's hands. I'm sure Greenlee knows you are there. Probably the best thing you can do is go home and see your sons. That would give you the strength to get through anything. Together, you and Zach can handle anything thrown your way.

Kendall,
I admire your loyalty. But, there are two little boys who need their mother. Josh is a wonderful uncle. But, he's not you. They need this time with you and Zach. You all need time together.

Dear Kendall: You and Zach looking absolutely gorgeous as usual. Love it when I see you together. Great to see that you and him can't keep your hands off each other!
Really liking Angie and Frankie (and Jessie the ghost? LOL). They are great people and enjoy them very much.

Kendall,
The best thing you can do for Greenlee is take care of your family. Your sons, Ian and Spike, need their mother more than Greenlee needs you.
She has doctors,specialists, family, and Aidan there for her. And yes, your friendship means a great deal to you. But you also have a family, two very young sons, who need their mother.
Continue to pray for Greenlee, but spend some time with your husband and sons.

I feel sorry that you are so worried for a person who took your son and cause you to go into early labor.

Hi Kendall: I'm looking forward to when you are home with Zach and your sons. Also spending some family time with Josh and Erica. You and Zach need to get on your lives because that is what is truly important. You and Zach deserve some happiness as there has been far too much turmoil for you over the last year. Please have some fun and romantic times.

Kendall, I know you are worried about Greenlee but you have your own life to live with your husband who also died..and your two children who also died.
Do not feel like you have to spend every waking moment with the person who almost destroyed your family once already. Enough is enough. It's fine that you and Zach are concerned. It shows you are better people. But go home and love your family..and let Aidan and Jack take care of Greenlee.
