I might be going inpatient, not sure if it'd be a mental hospitalization or if it'd be a respite bed where there's more freedome, but I'm at my wits end and beyond sad and trying to hold on and make it by. If you pray, please pray that no matter what happens, whether I stay home or whether I go in patient somewhere, that I'm okay and safe. I'm safe right now. I just know I need help. I'm not doing well. I'm trying to reach out for help through my treatment team though...

" Looking through your photo album, it is plain to see that your little boy is the Light of Your Life.
I imagine that you had your surgery so that you would be a healthy Mom for him and wife for your husband.

Inpatient or outpatient, you are doing the right thing by making sure that you are mentally healthy, as well. Remember Ethan and Carl, but do it for yourself.....you are clearly worth it.

You are definatley in my thoughts and prayers. As Donna said, find some peace. It is there within you.
From someone whose been there..... "
