You deserve it. Hugs to Pip. There are no other words I can say. We are 17 surgeries in ears and urinary are no longer operable without radical efforts - now looking at hospital bed (to go with oxygen, c-pap and humidifier at night) and glasses. I would love to say it gets easier - but it doesn't - and it does eff'ing suck that you all have to keep doing this. So since my words can't make it better - just hugs.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859135749071429875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818973399306650502.post-35315451336251209962016-09-28T00:57:53.575-04:002016-09-28T00:57:53.575-04:00Well said.

Shove those snickers and have her sip as soon as she can every few minutes to heal her throat quickly. We used the pause button on my older sons shows while he recovered and pressed play when he sipped.

I always want to comment on your posts - so witty, so hilarious, so raw and full of emotion - but I hold off because, well, I'm a stranger to you. But this post reached me.<br /><br />All the clichès in the world won't make you feel better. It isn't fair. Life isn't fair....etc. What will make you feel better is Pip. Your daughter will make you feel like you are winning. Because you are. You're winning at the mom game. You are a fucking superwoman. Only your daughter will make you feel this way and get you out of that closet and let you cry, cry some more. <br /><br />If she could articulate that she would. It looks like she tells you in other ways that only you and her understand. That's the magic of motherhood.<br /><br />You are a fucking superhero and your daughter is your cape.<br /><br />Xoxo<br />Mandy Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06957284122130193285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818973399306650502.post-20890164703520308092016-09-27T16:51:23.599-04:002016-09-27T16:51:23.599-04:00No words.
