Moms With Sick Kids- A Special Breed of Human



This article is dedicated to all the moms whose lives didn’t go as they planned. Whose kid got sick and life took a huge turn. 

To all the moms who have stayed up all night on an uncomfortable chair in the ER because something was wrong.

To all the moms who understand that daily living is hard for us, and help us with tasks.

To all the moms who advocated for us to doctors because you knew something wasn’t right.

To all the moms who wake up in the middle of the night when we’re not feeling well.

To all the moms who put our slew of meds together every week. 

To all the moms who remind us to do things when we forget because of brain fog.

To all the moms who have been in pain watching their child suffer, but hid it and stayed strong for us. 

To all the moms who try every single thing to make us feel more comfortable.

To all the moms who make sure we’re able to live the best life we can under the circumstances. 

To all the moms who have held our hand while we’ve been in pain.

To all the moms who have done whatever you could, like traveling to see different doctors. 

To all the moms who drive home and all the way back to the hospital every day because you don’t want to leave us alone. 

To all the moms who listen to us complain, because it’s bound to happen.

To all the moms who’ve spoken for us when we’ve been unable to speak.

To all the moms who have put their own health aside because you think that ours is more important.

To all the moms who have watched scary things happen to us but held it together.

To all of the moms who make sure we are prepared with all our medical supplies before we leave the house. 

To all the moms who would take our illnesses from us if they could. 

To all the moms who take us to appointment after appointment. 

To all of the moms who have waited to do something you needed to do while we were inpatient because you wanted to be there when the doctor came. 

To all the moms who stay up worrying about us. 

To all the moms who have celebrated our little victories.

To all the moms who fight alongside us. 

To all the chronic illness moms.

You are a special breed of human. Thank you for your care, your advocacy, your help, and most of all, your love. Happy Mother's Day.
