I convey what I find with the doc and he gives tips on how to handle. Today reading just hurt and it is getting beyond my capabilities to help. Doc says she is very much in denial and gives me pointers to help it. I told hubs so which way do we do this? Cut my doc visits out so she can go or me go. We cannot afford both. I think being a mom and with the self help of reading, studying, and having a great support system on my side the answer is obvious.
My "favorite" piece of art work along with her writings was a heart drawn with jagged edges through it as if broken. Dad written on one side and her name on the other... MOM written on the jagged line. It kills me.
But she is more important. And hubs and I already talked about it. She is going to start going and I will have to suck it up and drive. He specializes in kids and family.
Doc wants me in early this week to do a double session. I will go in Monday for that and rearrange then. At least this doc has the family history so he has that on his side. |
