Hi there,
Oh my goodness, 4 children. I only had two and I was wore out all the time. I admire those who have larger families than I did. You are stronger because of it and it seems like you have a closer family when you have more children too.
Your sense of humor is awesome! Don't loose that, it will help you get through it all. Your faith is going to be your strength. Gather close to good friends and family for support when you are at your worst. You will need that. Cherish every good moment you have to balance out the bad ones and just be honest with the little ones so that they understand that your pain is the reason for grumpy monkey and its not because of them. Kids adapt very well to things when they understand what the needs are. Tell them you love them often and hug them as much as possible and laugh with them even when you don't feel like it even if only for a few minutes. This new life change is going to be challenging and hard to deal with at times. You will not be able to do it alone so make as many supportive friends as possible and take advantage of as many resources as you can find.
You can vent here anytime and make friends and have the support from others who understand. I am so glad you found us.
I hope your next treatment goes better and you get some relief. You have a better chance of it working since you are probably in the first stages of this. Let us know.
You are in my prayers. Tami |
