From people who came through it
“I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. For me it was a heart surgery at four months. I picked up the guitar again.”
cloudsouth90 · been through parenting a seriously ill child“Hello from the other side of it. I was right where you are in 2023. Our son's leukaemia treatment, two years of it, every single day. This morning I sang in the car. It's slow, but it does come back. Be gentle with yourself.”
First year student in Plymouth · been through parenting a seriously ill child“Hello from the other side of it. I was right where you are in 2023. I remember a heart surgery at four months like it was yesterday. I laugh properly again. Be gentle with yourself.”
Waitress in Preston · been through parenting a seriously ill child“The first weeks feel huge and no one can tell you how it will go. What I found helps is small rules. Who does which night. When food arrives. Which hospital person knows your child and always ask for them. Take the offers seriously, say yes to what is actually useful. Bad days are part of it and they are not the whole story.”
