You do have a lot on your plate. <br /><br />You're right though - when our children are born, we have every belief that they are never going to have any sort of health issues. It's a grieving process for us, as parents, as we come to the reality of the situation when something does come up. In time we all become accustomed to our new way of life, but there is still that little person inside of you that needs to cry every once in awhile for what we originally dreamed for our children.<br /><br />You're a damned fine Mom and you're doing a terrific job with both of your kids :) Hang in there.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08174978790549584487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-45540953929991931662006-12-11T10:54:00.000-08:002006-12-11T10:54:00.000-08:00{{hugs}} It IS okay to grieve.{{hugs}} It IS okay to grieve.Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12650990160980367237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-38480670440608394802006-12-10T18:41:00.000-08:002006-12-10T18:41:00.000-08:00I am a 30 year old type I diabetic in Sydney - I a...I am a 30 year old type I diabetic in Sydney - I am so pleased to find your blog! I use needles to draw the syringes I carry around in my bag and most days feel very healthy and happy and consider myself lucky that our bodies give us indications when things go wrong. Hey! They even push us to live healthier and probably longer and I am speaking for you and your kids here - you sound like an incredibly stong loving mom and I feel humbled<br />:)ebbyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05087467824423440834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-37405720665301765772006-12-10T02:12:00.000-08:002006-12-10T02:12:00.000-08:00Grieve as much as you need to--you're going throug...Grieve as much as you need to--you're going through a lot!<br /><br />But save these posts so you can look back (in a month/six months/a year/ten years) and see how far you've come.Lyrehcahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14731508321420598343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-11449520112059372092006-12-09T15:55:00.000-08:002006-12-09T15:55:00.000-08:00Oh man.

OK, try not to bawl in fron of your kids, but you know you cannot hide your feeling from them. They will see and then wonder what you are hiding, better to talk and talk and talk some more.Chrissie in Belgiumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556806942193998413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-81265666261677955602006-12-08T21:26:00.000-08:002006-12-08T21:26:00.000-08:00To me, you are navigating an amazing course of une...To me, you are navigating an amazing course of unexpected and difficult things with a remarkable, beautiful grace.In Search Of Balancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03434130371052211172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536178837256094246.post-25267737291156321542006-12-08T19:29:00.000-08:002006-12-08T19:29:00.000-08:00It is absolutely ok to be sad and to go through th...It is absolutely ok to be sad and to go through the process. Just make sure you know when it gets to the point that you need to ask for help. Looking at your schedule I don't see any Sarah time. I know how hard it is to make sure you spend time for yourself, but everybody must replenish. Big hugs to you, I wish I could help.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276484548667354919noreply@blogger.com
