From people who came through it
“Reading this late at night? I've been there. Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. A nurse who knows his favourite dinosaur. That was my life. This morning I sang in the car. It changes. It really does. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
sofíauncle42 · been through parenting a seriously ill child“I know it feels like too much. The hospital, the bills, the fear. I've been there with my son. Take it one day at a time. Ask for help. The hospital social worker might know about aid. I didn't ask at first because I was ashamed. Don't be like me. You're doing your best.”
Found Bee · been through parenting a seriously ill child“I was where you are nearly four years ago. The worst part: a nurse who knows his favourite dinosaur. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.”
goldfound · been through parenting a seriously ill child“Dear stranger, i was in the same place a year and a half ago. I remember when her siblings feeling left out, like it was yesterday. This year I did a 5k, slowly. One day at a time.”
