tldr; personal rant So, I've been staying with my mom in the hospital because she had bleeding in her brain aka subarachnoid hemmorhage. I didn't sleep the entire time I was there. Now, she's out and relatively okay (compared to what she could be) and I'm hella grateful but I still haven't slept. I'm taking care of her, getting medicines together, making sure she doesn't injure herself on accident. Long story short, I think I'm going to short circuit. I could really use some smoke and then some sleep. Too bad I don't see that happening. All good thoughts and well wishes for my mom are much appreciated.
:grouphug:Hang in there and as trite as it sounds, it will get better. I am sorry to hear about your mom but am relieved to read that she is doing not too badly, considering. You need to try to find a little room for you, even a nice tea, sit out for 10 minutes, a bubble bath. Find something that is going to give you a little mental break. I will be thinking of you.
Thanks so much guys, I really appreciate it. and Heat, yeah, long baths are definitely a must-have for me. They have always been one of my great escapes.
Much love to you and your mother, just keep your head up and you'll ride through the storm. And definitely listen to yourself about the sleep thing, dealing with life is so much easier with enough sleep.
Thanks Yeah, a good amount of sleep would do me a world of good. Things are getting easier because we're all getting used to the new schedules, though.
Sorry to hear about your mom, you sound like a very good daughter, though. I hope she gets better soon! Hang in there!
