Today was my son's last soccer game and awards ceremony. Though I rarely make it to games and practices, I do make a monumental effort to make it to things like this. The game was at 3, and I spent the morning and early afternoon scrambling to get my work finished so I could go. By 3 I was completely exhausted and nauseated. I guess it was obvious, because my son told me I didn't have to go if I didn't want to. It made me sad. He shouldn't have to worry about things like that. I told him a herd of elephants couldn't stop me, although they might slow me down a bit. ha ha I did make it to the game and through the ceremony, all the while fearing I was going to be ill in front of all of these people. But I made it through and am very glad I did. Now I can relax for the evening and feel like I really accomplished something.

Wow, you\'re an amazing person & wonderful mom. I know how difficult it was for you, physically, to go to your son\'s game/ceremony, but you did it for him, & I admire you for that. Your son is lucky to have you. I am sorry you\'re so ill & going through such difficulty finding medications, etc. I hope they will soon find something that works well for you, so your suffering will lessen. Also, you\'re very fortunate to have an ex-husband who helps you the way yours does. Mine helps me too. We have been blessed.
