Re: new to list/comment on being parents of kid wcf

[Guest guest]

At first we were more than overwhelmed; we were swamped with guilt!!!

Then we got to overwhelmed, as the practical aspects, in addition to my

own medical needs, overwhelmed us--wild!

Then, after a while we were just, well " whelmed, " that is it was a bit much

after all, but we felt, I think, rather proud of ourselves!

Then came the let down as things began to rumble medically--and we

just sat on the sofa in the livingroom one day and my husband said to

me, " You know, I think I am now at the point of being 'whelmed!' "

But some how we managed; there are those who probably think that we

both became maniacs, but that is their problem; ours was survival!!

Still is! And we are so glad that our kid wcf and I made it!

Love to all at cfparents, parents, kids, family members, friends,

n Rojas, who thinks now that this list is part of how I survive it all!
