Health at risk....

I was sick, with a 102.9 temp, but I had no choice I had to take care of my 2. I have a 5 month old and a 3 year old, my 3 year old was also sick, but with 2 deceased parents and his parents didn't want to co operate, and he had to work, so I had to do what I had to do, it sucks, but I had too. If you are really sick, and have help I suggest you ask around. If someone is willing to help, let them. Even if its just a couple hours so you can get some sleep.

I have been going through the same thing recently. My daughter is 7 and I just can't take care of her anymore because I've been too sick and don't know if I'll get any better. At the end of the school year she'll be going to livewith her dad, and right now my parents help me with her alot. It was a very hard choice ot make, and I still feel very bad about it, but what else can I do? Hang in there, I hope you start to feel better soon.

If I was in your place, I would have told my daughters to take the charge of household.

If you are too sick to look after your children you shouldn't be feeling guilty. I believe your kids are still very young and a lot of energy and attention is required on your part if you need to make sure that they are well fed and not get hurt. I hope you have family members in your family or your husband's who can help you take care. I do not know how ill you are and what kind of illness but your health should be your priority because only when you are well then you will be able to take care of your children properly too. Take care and I will remember to pray for you.

Firstly it is not your fault you are ill, do you have a childcare service you could use until you feel better- or a Grandma who could lend a helping hand? do you have a partner who could take some of the strain just while you are getting better?, you are not failing your children by being ill, well just some ideas and I really hope you get well soon!
