She understands. I know that doesn't help much, but she knows you'd give the world to be there right now. She understands it's the thought that truly counts, and I think you've done all you can.

Thank you for the kind words. I don't want to be this person. I don't want to be this mother, this wife, this friend. And yes, I do fault myself for everything. It's like, emotionally I feel like I should just be strong and get over it. There is nothing physically wrong with me. But every once in a while, common sense kicks in and I do realize that I'm doing the best I can. It's crappy, but it's the best I can do. I'm sure you and a lot of others have seen the little poster that says "Sometimes it's ok if all you can do today is breathe". That describes a lot of my days. I do not want to be this person at all. I hate her.
