Today, I took my son to the airport to visit his dad in Rehab, for family week.. It was hard, he has mixed feelings on the trip. He has held so much in, and been through so much.. I wish I could of made the trip with him, to help him.. Very hard, but I will be able to do phone sessions, at least.. Hopefully, he will find the courage and strength, to let his Dad know what he has put him through.. Hopefully, he will find sobriety.

 

Michaela and I took a visit to the aquarium, it was alot of fun.. It was a beautiful day, and we had alot of fun..

 

Struggling abit with self esteem, but otherwise, am well...

 

My husband has done a complete turn around, and showing me much needed attention, and love.. He told me he was proud of the work I have been doing, and it shows, and that I am more and more beautiful each day.. I know I must of been disgusting too look at it, I know I was, when I was very low in weight.. Its been a great few weeks for us.. Thats a positive thing...

 

I am missing Myles, and wanting to be with him.. Feeking like a shitty parent, for not being a part of this.. Its crazy, that are kids can drive us crazy, but then when they are not around, we forget all that.. The house is quiet, right now, besides Michaela jump roping upstairs, and singing the Reba show song..(Funny show).. I look forward to my boy coming home, I will try and not to nag him about his room... LOL... Peace and Love....

    You are by no means a bad parent. You are putting yourself first, and doing what you feel is best for your family. No one can ask anything else. You are the author of your own life, there for have to answer soley to yourself. The author! I hope that your son remains strong just like his momma! And that your family continues to strive! I love you!

    you sound like a great mum, you should not put yourself down, i know you want tobe with your kid, but sometimes its better to let him do things on his own, hope things will make him stronger. you are a great and beautiful person, you need to be happy for yourself! xxx

    You are a fantastic Mom, never doubt that. We all have hard times we go through in parenting - as you know from me:) You are missing Myles so much because the only time he's ever been away from you for any length of time is when he's been with family on vacation or off somewhere for fun sports stuff. Even though this is serious stuff and it may be hard, I hope it will turn out to be a positive experience for him and his dad. He's a great kid, loving, caring and compassionate- just like his Mom so he'll give it his best shot. This is a time for them to work together and hopefully bring them closer.

    And you are beautiful inside and out... Even though you dont feel it right now, self esteem will begin to shine through you'll see. Inner beauty shows up on the outside in so many ways that people who know you can't help but see it. You've been through a hellish, terrible time with ED and other things but you are doing good. Little by little you'll feel and see your outer beauty shine through too. Am thinking of you all with love. HugsXX
