If you haven't yet heard the song "Worn" by Tenth Avenue North, you should make a point to listen to it.
I am so worn right now. The same day I got the news that Delaney's chromosome tests were normal, my son started throwing up. He had such a bad stomach virus that it took him over a week to recover. Except that as soon as he started to act like himself again, he winds you coming down with a cold. Well, the cold actually turned into pink eye and a double ear infection. Which hes been down with for the last two days. Today he was cleared to go back to school so I could go back to work, and a half hour into the day his school calls me to tell me he threw up again and I need to come get him. All three of my step sons have been sick throwing up this week but they've been with their mom. My husband is now sick with fever, aches, and a bad cough, or basically the flu. And My throat hurts. I've been trying to stay away from all of this because of the baby and the fact that I can't really afford to take any extra time off work since I'm already missing so much for Doctors appointments. Went to see the heart specialist Tuesday. Doesn't look very good. I'm just sick of dealing with all this at once. I'm beyond overwhelmed. I'm so worn out. I have had so little good news in such a long time. I had to call my dad to get my son, so I could try to stay at work, but I really don't know that I will be able to make it honestly. I just feel a bit alone lately. I see other pregnant women everywhere and all I can think about is how much I envy them in their contentment. How they have no idea what I'm going through and how I wish I had never heard of this and didn't ever have to know anything about it.
