Fed up!!

I just get to the point where I don’t want to keep having to be strong 💪. I fell like all I do is let my children down. I would do anything do just have a holiday from my body. I know that I have got to pick myself up to go back through surgery again, just feel like I am stuck on a merry go round

It’s really hard isn’t it. I’ve had similar thoughts this week. It might not help but just know you’re not alone. Your children will always think you’re the best mum in the world 🥰

I completely sympathise with you, I've been backwards and forwards from the doctor's/hospital/scans this week only to have my pain dismissed. I was actually told this week it's constipation, scan only showed an enlarged egg and a small nodule/cyst so they can't understand why I'm in so much pain. You just get fed up of battling with them and yourself. I've got two little ones and all I want is to have less pain and tiredness so I can actually enjoy doing fun things with them rather than feeling wiped out. It's really hard, and you are doing amazingly well to manage and be strong. It's not much but it's an excellent example of strength for the kids, and they will always think your a superhero x

I have been there. I was admitted for 3 plus’s weeks they did scans MRI Ct and a colonoscopy luckily it was a good dr who said I need to physically look. My bowel was stuck to my abdominal wall and there was extensive lesions. It was a mess. And no scan found it !!!

I can totally relate to this, I feel like I let my son down when I'm bedbound, it really takes a toll not just on our physical health but mentally too. I bet your children think they are really lucky to have you as a mum 🥰 please don't ever doubt yourself I know its hard. We always put guilt on ourselves as mums I think but when your poorly it feels worse. Here if you want to chat xx
