[quote=Anonymous]I can relate, though minimally. My younger child had two diagnoses this year, each taking up 3-4 months of mystery and doctor whack-a-mole, and we are just wrapping up the second one. Neither have been threateningly serious, though surgery was/is required, and one of them may pop up and present issues later.

It has been an exhausting year. I have managed to somewhat keep my life together, but I feel like some days all I talk about is medical stuff - god help my friends for having to listen to me. I also feel very self-conscious and wonder if people think that I am nuts and my child isn't actually having issues. It's embarrassing, in a way that is hard to explain and in a way that I don't mean negatively toward my child. I can empathize with what you're going through, though I understand your version is more serious and I am so sorry for that.

It sucks. It changes things. But she's lucky to have you in her corner, even if the corner is a hard place to be sometimes.  [/quote]
