Annie, you whine away! We all have moments (most of them insignificant compared to yours) and we all need a way to vent. Venting to us is perfect! That’s why we’re here. AND, since you vented, we now know how to lift you up in prayer. You and your precious family. Hang in there gurl!

Annie,
you are right, one day at a time is all you could do. Just remember POTS DID NOT win…Annie has the power of making choices. You are a great mom and I’m sure your girls see that. Someone really dear once told me EVA BE BRAVE…it was the best thing someone ever told me.
Big hugs and stay strong

Chin up my favorite dizzy action making girl! I’m so sorry that nasty, nasty POTS ia trying to control your life again. It should just take a flying leap and leave you alone! I had a thought about your compression socks that sweet little Addie dislikes. You should get some sharpies or fabric colors and let her decorate them
with you. This way when you put them on she will have a happy memory of when you decorated them together. You could then fib just a little and tell her that the beautiful art she created is helping keep the POTS away!
Get better soon Annie Wonka and thank you for being human.

so sorry you are going through this…while i dont have a chronic illness, the months of July, August and early Sept. are a total blur to me because I was having serious gall bladder issues. this included a few trips to the ER, pain, nausea, insomnia, etc…and trying to explain it all to my girls. and i felt much the same way you expressed, including the anger. i hope you start to feel better soon, but in the meantime, hang in there & know that while you are taking care of yourself, you are also taking care of your babies.

Oh, Annie, what a difficult season this must be for you. You have great strength to be able to see that this will make your girls more compassionate and understanding. Saying a prayer for you…
