loving daughter who cares
I am a 31 year-old female and grew up in a household where my mom has crohn's disease. She was diagnosed IN 1979 after I was born. Experiencing this traumatic disease with my mom was very challenging for my family at times. After learning about this disease, it saddens me more and more to know what my mom has endured all of these years. All of the hospital stays while we were young and whats even sadder is how my dad abandoned and abused her because of her sickness. I'm writing because my mom has begun to experience flare-ups again. She is up and down with sadness and has longed for a companion for years but because of her ostomy she's embarrassed to open herself up to a relationship. If you know of anyone that is experiencing similar issues as my mom, please email me @ tesatinsley187@hotmail.com. There aren't any chat groups in our area (Alabama); although, I know that she won't join a face-to-face chat group but she'll be glad to talk via email. Thanks in advance and for all of you that are suffering with this disease, I'll continue to hold you up in prayer. My mom is a warrior, she had four kids and throughout her sickness she still mananged to be the best mom in the whole wide world. We never knew about her pain and for that I Love her to DEATH! Stay strong, remember, GOD chooses each one of our journey, so if this is yours, walk in it, do the work, and GOD will do the rest! be encouraged, Sincerely, Loving daughter who cares... |
