Anticipatory grief brings out so many difficult emotions. Seeing a loved one suffer is very painful. I can relate, as I've had multiple family members and (most recently) my best friend go through long-term illness until the very end. Dealing with Bipolar on top of it all is so overwhelming....plus that you just had surgery. Self-care is so important during this time, but it is hard to even do so when you are so worried and on edge. Every little bit counts though.
