Some words

Not mine, but I read them tonight and they rang true for me.

"In the midst of winter, I finally learned
That there was in me an invincible summer"

Gosh we're struggling at the moment. Struggling to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
Struggling to parent two girls with such different needs. Struggling to maintain any sense of order.
Struggling to see the bigger picture.

Tomorrow we have an appointment to see the paediatric cardiologist. I am a little bit scared. I mean I know her lungs are crap. Her heart had a couple of little issues and my mummy gut feeling tells me they have worsened. I don't want that. I want something to work well for her. I want to throw away the concerns and let her be a little girl again.

She is sick. If I wrote what has happened in our house in the last few weeks...you would think I was making it up. I wish I was.

Until tomorrow...
