[QUOTE="Beta, post: 764456, member: 22597"] Thank you JMom. I do try to focus on self-care. It's so easy to let those things slide and just focus constantly on your child. I'm sure all of us have those moments where we're doing something fun or pleasant and we feel a twinge of guilt for enjoying ourselves. I have to reject that at odd moments throughout each day. I'll be cooking something, and I'll think, "I wish Josh were here to enjoy this good food." Or I'll be doing something fun that makes me laugh, and I feel guilty because I know his life is nothing to laugh about. I have to tell myself that making my life miserable all the time does not make his life better. I also believe that living the life God has called me is the responsible, God-honoring thing to do, so I keep going. [/QUOTE]
