Back in October, someone I know wrote a great post about the difficulties of parenting a child with major medical issues. I want to share it with you. What about the Tigon Mom?
I can't tell you how much this writing spoke to me. It's so hard when you don't feel like there's a place where you belong. I read Emily Rapp's article a few months ago - before I read What about the Tigon Mom? - and as I read it I thought the exact same thing. What does that make me? Where do I fit in? I'm going to expand on this soon. It's been on my mind a lot in the past few months.
Thank you to all of the people out there that get me and/or support me. Sometimes, it's a lonely place where I live.

Thanks for sharing that Christy. I think you are right. Where do we fit it? The moms like us? The kids like ours? I am eager to hear what you have to say. And I am grateful to have a friend like you. XOXO.
It's lonely here too Christy. Really lonely. Wish I lived a little closer to help you feel more "normal".
Kerry :)
