I think we’ll all be okay (fingers crossed). I’ve worked out a rhythm to get all the bases covered so I’m not so exhausted or stressed. I do have my moments but I try to stay positive and patient. Most days I do have SI but I’ve had that for so many years now that I’m used to surfing that wave.
Sending hugs and positive vibes to all for a peaceful Sunday.  |
I am glad to read your sister is continuing to be helpful.
So glad you and your daughter are able to spend some time alone.
It can be very exhausting to be a caretaker, as you know. I hope you can get some breaks and do not lose sight of your needs. It's a challenge to stay balanced when there are so many needs around us.
I also experience SI and have for many years. It never goes away. Some days are better than others.
I hope you have fun with your daughter!
