She has MS
Its hard for me to let it go and have fun with ny family and friends
Could someone help me with that?
I don't know how to explaine

You can check with Respite or some organization that helps give people a break from caring for an ill loved one.
Also if you are in the USA you can also check on a program that pays you for caring for someone that is chronically ill.
There are supplements for MS but I have to check and get back I can't remember them right now.

Hollie, I don't know what you are really trying to say. Your mom has muscular distrophy, that I get and you are the major caregiver I am assuming. I know how bad MS can get and is she on proper medication to lessen the pain ?

You feel guilty because you would like to go out and enjoy yourself, right ?

Hollie, your mother's condition is a reality. It's not going away. The best thing you can do is let go of your resistance to this reality and accept it. Let the truth of it wash through you like water. Then, you can just love her and be there for her. When she's gone, you will be glad that you did.

Your mother's condition is nobody's fault. There is no hidden meaning in it, no message about you or your family or anything else. There is no need for having uncomfortable feelings about having fun, being happy, or celebrating your life. As her MS progresses, she will enjoy life through your joy and well being. Don't take that away from her by keeping yourself from happiness.

Let go.

I totally agree with you on that
When I'm jez sitting around or don't have anything 2 do then that's when it hits me
But when I'm really into something I don't think about anything but what I'm doing or about my daughters and fiancé

Call her daily and see how she's doing,talk to her and tell her how much you love her so she can feel happy and you can make yourself happier. Talk about how your day was, talk to your nana and ask her how she was doing on such specific day and maybe that will comfort her a little. Also help her maybe get the medication and doctors she needs! <3

Its hard for me to talk to my mom because she shakes and I can't understand her so my nana has to talk for us.
There's times I can talk to her on the phone
See I have a hearing problem
I was born with it

[Ana52408]

Im sorry to hear that :/

Well are you sure you can't visit? Does she live in another country?

Well how about this!!



SEND HER A LETTER OR AN E-MAIL!!

Maybe its not phone to phone but your nana can read to her and she can reply perfectly fine telling your nana what to say... hope this idea helps!
