Sending light and love. (And it gets betterness.)
Ah shit, I'm sorry she's sick.
It will get better.
It will get better.
It will get better.
It will get better.
It will get better.
Yes. It gets better. Yes. It does. I swear it and I mean it. Okay, it gets different. And with each new step into a new direction, there is better and there is change and there is something else and listen- YOU ARE DOING IT! You.
You, you, you.
God, I wish I could come and step in and let you take a nap.
One moment at a time. You can do this. It will get better, so will she. **hugs**
Hang in there Maggie! It WILL get better and you can totally use that line!
sending lots of energy and the hope that baby ever gets well soon--it will get better-c
When this happens to me, I repeat this as a mantra: Tomorrow is another day. A day that will start with coffee. Really! Soon Ever will feel better. Then it will ALL get better. It really will.
well, poop. Maggie May I have been obsessively checking back with your blog all day like I knew you were going to write this particular thing.
I don't know how you do what you do but I DO know that you are doing that doo-doo. Or something.
It will get better.
I love that 'it will get better' is a slogan for bullied gay kids and I love how it is true for everything else. it does get better. It's hard to remember.... but it does. <3
babies grow fast, things change, life moves on. Sometimes too fast.
I know you'll make it through this! Sending you lots of good thoughts. It's going to get better, really! :)

It's beyond the pitts when the wee one has breathing/coughing problems. Very sad and scary...
IT WILL GET BETTER... In fact, it already is. Can you feel it?
The good news is that many many many children outgrow these kinds of things. Harley has bad asthma and I can already see the difference from when he was Ever's age to now at 5 years. Incredible.
As to the rest, that WILL get better too. It will sort itself out. Maybe not all at one time, but it will. AND You WILL FEEL better too... and you WILL have sex again, and you will stop panicking and you will get a break and and and...
Love you,
pf
It will get better.
It will be all right.
It always is and does.
I know these things -- not just hope these things but know these things.
Ask and ye shall receive.
Love and blessings and ease to you.
this writing. i know you're telling us things...like how you feel and how crazy things are...but i can't help...but focus on the writing....like how you NAILED IT and how beautiful it is even though it discusses raw stuff....
She will be fine soon, I am sure about it. But have to agree with you about the annoying healthcare system in America...
Sending love. Lots and lots of love, Maggie May.
wow, maggie, you write so damn good that everything is going to be fine!! yes!! love you so much!!!
xoxoxoxo
besos y abrazos!!!!!!
It will get better. It will. It has to. It can't not. It will.
Love to you. x
Maggie! I will get better. How about this: the next time I am in your neck of the woods, I am going to send you out of the house with the kids and I will clean you house for you. Top to bottom. Or, at least, top to bottom of the laundry pile. :) You keep writing. Write, write, write, my dear. Write through sickness and health. Write because it is the best medicine. Love.
