[quote=Anonymous]I feel for you. I have Crohn's and had a very bad 6 year flare. I was sometimes hospitalized for two weeks. I tried my absolute hardest to be the best Mom but to do that ended up getting addicted to pain meds so I could work, live and play with my child. I feel sometimes like I gypped my daughter because she talks about remembering me coming home in agony and getting my pills, water and hot pad. We often played quiet games bedside or we snuggled and watched TV. When I felt great, we did everything possible to make-up for the sick days. Now, I have 2 kids and it do a lot more and have more at stake. I take it day by day, listen to my body, manage stress, and know my limits. I wish you the best![/quote]
