sumed...

You know I am finding more and more than life is full of this. One might aske what is sumed? Well to anyone who has ever had a sick child you know what this is. Its very familiar. It becomes a way of life.

First of all you are consumed. Consumed by thoughts and actions. Consumed by lists of things to do, tube to clean, medicines to give, feedings etc. Your life is consumed by caring for your child.

Secondly people presume. They presume to know how you feel. NO- until you have gone through this... you cannot presume to even begin to know how I feel.

Thirdly people assume. People make assumptions about things. How early was she? Uh full term. OH. People assume that Troy and I were not married when we had owen. And we all know what assuming does. ASS U ME... you get the point.

All this suming leaves you overwhelmed, exhausted, frustrated, sadened, angry, and out and out tired. Which leads back to a previous post... I am tired.
