I Grow Helpless When My Neck Is Bitten
Next month it will be one year since my baby was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. He has endured 10 months of chemotherapy, one brain surgery, a feeding tube and countless other tests and appointments. He had multiple disabilities due to his tumor and treatment. At a year and a half he dose not walk or talk and he has very low vision.
The experiences of the last year have profoundly changed who I am and I don't know where I fit in MY world anymore.
I am now a full time caregiver, nurse, nutritionist, researcher, taxi, physical therapist, radiologist, advocate, oh yeah and MOM.
I have lost touch with being a wife, partner, friend. I no longer dream or travel or create.
