Hikin' Mama Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Hugs. I'm so very sorry for all you've gone through. Seeing our kids in pain is worse than being in our own pain, I think. ETA: Congrats to him for continuing on and finishing! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Definitely sending :grouphug: and prayers from here while celebrating with you at what he has accomplished. Also sending kudos to you for being a terrific mom and sticking by him with support and friendship. I've been reminded this week (and earlier this spring) that not all kids have such a luxury. Thanks for being a great mom to one of our Hive kids. Parenting isn't easy. Great parents come from being able to be there when parenting is difficult and there are no simple answers. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elegantlion Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: Thank you for sharing and allowing this board to give you encouragement. I think of fairy tales that tell us the ending is where they lived happily ever after. Life isn't like that. It's like that scene of grandma in the Parenthood movie talking about the roller coaster. Life is bittersweet and there isn't a happily ever after with years of perfection. There are moments of joy stashed amidst the turns and falls. If we're not careful, we'll miss them. May you and your family have and hold moments of joy today and in the days to come. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetC Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: and :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: You have both shown incredible strength to get to this point. I'm sorry that the end of his high school career has been so complicated... Wishing him all the best with whatever he decides to do when he wakes up from his well-deserved rest and recovery period. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoggirl Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 (((ScoutermominIL))) - you have had a long senior year with your ds. It's stressful enough without illness or depression. I am so sorry to learn this about your ds. You have been incredibly strong and supportive throughout the entire journey. You should be proud of his tenacity and perseverance. I hope he can heal both physically and emotionally. And I hope and pray that you are taking care of YOU, too. There is nothing quite like the helplessness felt by a parent when a child is suffering. To say it is exhausting would be an understatement. Both of you have overcome much. Congratulations on his graduation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creekland Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Once every one is healthy and on their way home, I am packing my backpack and going out for a couple of days. Sounds like a great plan! Glad the ceremony went well :party: , but with all the health stuff... wow, when it rains, it pours! May the sunshine return quickly! Hope you have a good summer and that healing (for all) is complete. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
