That story terrified me and make me thankful at the same time. Like Thanksgiving with zombies.

It's awesome quotes like this that make me call this place home.

yes, i am always on edge. i am always nervous and always worrying. but i've gotten good at hiding it. it bothers my husband and i am sure it would negatively affect my children, so i internalize it.

i also drink

and i don't even know what normal is. well, no. i guess this is normal. i try not to be too overbearing or helicopter-mom-esque. some days thats hard.

I dig you. I read your post today about the canoe trip, and the more I learn about you, the more I dig you.

I know we have talked a little bit about raising kids with medical concerns, but wow, I can't imagine what it's like to live always worrying about E. And now, maybe worrying that Noah's worrying about E. Since bringing M home, I get always being on edge; most our time has been like that, and I get that becoming the new normal. But in my case, I can see it getting better, and cling to the hope of it dissipating, and I see myself becoming less and less on edge and letting go more. So while I understand the feeling, I also understand how strong you must be to cope with that heightened sense of--well, everything--indefinitely. I also understand how you can say that it's still pales in comparison to all the blessings E brings to your life.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I hold you in great esteem for being able to life the life you do and still have a great outlook and sense of humor and je ne sais quoi about you. I wish you the best of luck with E, and the rest of your family, in the future, and I hope you stick around in the Caribbean.

i actually really fvcking sucks to always worry.

and thank you for all of the nice things that you said. it really means a lot (as pathetic as that may sound)

Reading your novel made me tear up a little, and want to go hug my little boy.

I can only imagine how awful it is to always worry about when the next medical emergency is coming and if you're doing enough to protect / react / etc.

So, I think.bills baby girls part it's a little odd. I mean, I remember your screen name, but why, when you have put none of yourself.out.there and she has written a novel should she gtg with you? Like, what's in it for her? Why don't you share a little about yourself top? If she wants to drink.with.strangers she can just like, go to a bar and drink with strangers t hataren't from the internet.

Wow. What a story! I'm kind of in awe of you and your coping ability. I'm also so happy to hear that E is doing well now. Thank you for sharing your story. It's truly inspiring and makes me feel like a total pansy.
