donna,


i can so relate to your situation. i can't make it better for you. i wish i could. but if i'm not being out of line, there's an added component at play that's making it that much more difficult for you right now.


i'm not going to play expert or preach here, 'cause lord knows i'm messed up enough, but the best advice i can offer you right now is not only to take it one day at a time, but break it down into increments that you need to get you through right now. be it one hour, one minute, or even one second. i've been trying to focus on the last 2 recently. but hours work too.


like i said, i can't offer a whole lot right now, but know that i do understand and am sending some p & pt your way.

As a mother of kids who are sick from October to April each year, I can relate. All of my kids have had surgery of some type and we have sucky insurance, so I know where you are coming from.

Know that you are not alone. Know that you are loved. Take Traci's advice and just take the day minute to minute. Whatever you need to do.

Hugs to you and your kids. You are right, you all deserve a break.

Donna,


Having sick kids hits on SO many levels--physical, emotional and economic.
