Being a Sick Mom

How difficult it is to not feel well when you have a baby or small child to care for? How about being completely unable to be there for his or her care because you are in the hospital?

How about coming home and not being able to lift your crying child? How about not being able to have your child just sit on your lap for comfort? How very difficult it was to deal with all of those things and more. If you have never been through anything like that, you are very lucky. Just take a moment to imagine all of those things. Everyday activities are an effort and have to wait for someone else to take care of. Just walking across the room is exerting. I conquered all of this and more and managed to give my baby everything he needed, but with extra effort and lot’s of patience. I think patience is what saved me. It may have made me a better person, I know it made me appreciate life that much more.
