Today I am volunteering at Dream House for Medically Fragile children's office.
I really enjoy this place and the people here.  I feel like I am doing something to help since financially I can't give much.

As I recall time I have spent within the walls of the hospital, I wished I had known I was going to be there for so long. I would have taken classes online.  I find myself wishing I had my counseling degree.  I have been counseling 2 new Mothers of medically fragile kiddos lately.
I feel like I should know more than I do. But they say they feel comforted by speaking to me and like myself they don't feel alone like they once did.

Having a child that requires so much of you is tiring and mentally draining.
Andrew is stable now but I now from past experience that it was draining.
I now know how to deal with the stress and I feel great about helping other parents with that.
Finding 5 minutes daily to just meditate is a great way to distress and to find things to be grateful for.
Having a date night with your spouse is a great idea too on a regular basis.
There are respite groups and programs available and I explain all that to them.

I love helping oter people.  Right now I just feel like I am not doing enough. I feel like I am in a little rut.  Finding out I can not work out till after my heart Eco is killing me.  Its been beautiful out too.
