[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 406796, member: 6705"] I, too, am glad she's home. I hope she got some good, QUALITY sleep. Is there ANY WAY AT ALL you can get husband or someone to be with difficult child for a while? L needs respite, just as much as you do. I know it's cold. But - take her out for ice cream (JUST YOU TWO), tell her what you've told us - you love her, and you know you've been spending so much time with difficult child, you don't *mean* to ignore her... And what would she like for you to do, to help (within reason, but you know that)??? Just letting them know you're THERE seems to help. My Mom did this for me a while back - things with her were really strained last year after we told her we were going to try the IVF, she said some stuff, I never got over it - but she was THERE when I needed her, when it did not work and I was devastated - and I know I am an adult, but it works. And - hugs, hon. You've been through a lot lately. [/QUOTE]
