Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Well, hello there! Rev. Annie Atkinson, Welcome to the group. I'd say you have quite a bit to handle. It's always difficult when children are affected with a dis-ease. The majority of parents, I believe, will always put their children first and worry about them. Stress is a given when it comes to children. I do believe , however, that they learn more from watching adults then by listening to what is said. In short, parents, or guardians, set the example. If you are doing everything you can to maintain your own health, he will see that and learn. It is difficult to not let your worry and concern show. Maintaining a positive attitude is so important. If you do not take care of yourself, he will see that,also. Seeking support is a most admirable quality. It shows strength rather than weakness. I am sure you will find moral support here in this group and help from other members who also have children and are learning how to cope with life in new ways. Even your husband may begin to see life differently. See if you can get him to read some of the posts or maybe ask some questions himself. I know those who can help in any way, will. For those members who also view the spiritual side of life and how it helps with any dis-ease, I am sure you will find support there, also. The road is not easy. We will do what we can. Personally, I will keep you in my prayers. (no particular faith mentioned here people-just the act of praying for someone who needs it). Keep posting and keep asking questions.
