Everyday
Do you ever get annoyed with your spouse because they ask what did you do today? I try not to get annoyed but like wtf. I have a 1yr old and an almost 3 year old that I get no break from. I’m not over working myself to exhaustion. I sat on my ass that what I did !
Taking care of your physical health, and mental health, is a ton of work, all by itself. Once you add in an incurable disease, every task can seem insurmountable. I celebrate the fact that you woke up today, and chose to continue to try!! I also celebrate your intuition that taking special care of yourself is exactly what you need to do in order to be present for your baby. I think you deserve a huge break from anyone expecting you to do more. Gentle hugs, with deep understanding!
