Guest guest Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 Hi Everyone, I haven't been on the computer much lately. I've been so depressed, and it's so exhausting to feel this way, I just wish I could sleep it all away. Dasia is constantly sick ever since it got cold about 2 months ago. Then, the last 2 out of 3 nutr. visits she lost 5 ounces each time, she's weighed every 2 weeks. It doesn't seem like that much, why am I falling apart over it? Today was one of those visits, and I haven't been able to stop crying. Some of my friends from church and our Bishop will be here tonight to help give support. My husband is out of town, and through all this, I'm just barely hanging on by a thread. Her nutr. said they probably wouldn't recommend a feeding tube since she has only lost weight in the winter months when she gets sick a lot. The rest of the time, I had been dealing with plateaus in her weight though, then I thought things were turning around since during this summer she gained about a pound. It's such a confusing battle, and I know everyone's situation is unique, and it's really up to me to ask for a tube or not. I'm just lacking strength right now, thanks for being here, and for listening. I'm usually good at putting on a smiling face through whatever hard times hit, I just feel like I can't deal with this, especially without my husband, why now? Mom to Dasia __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
