I can and therefore I must

I am deeply amazed at some things. I must say that I am eager to see the light of what is going on in my home. Yes, it has been a year now since I have started my chemo and gotten into the mix of things. In a few days, I will have had my head shaved from what was going on with chemo. For the anniversary, I have had my head shaved again. But, that is just the tip of the iceberg. This past several weeks, there have been so many difficulties in the home that I cannot just sit back and hope for some relief. No, the relief does not come. No, the relief is not anywhere in sight. But, I keep working through these difficulties. I am not happy, nor pleased at the events that have been going on. Yes, the kiddo. What do I say?

Well, it has been nearly seven months and the tiny livestock is still here. No matter what I try to do, it is not going to go away any time soon. It does not help that there are other parents that the kiddo goes to visit and that she brings it to their house. I wonder what goes on with other parents regarding all of this. I would love to have a conversation with some of these parents and see what they know about their own children. But, I wonder if they really do care or if they are just waiting the time until they actually move away from home. I wonder. I cannot help but to wonder. I am tired all the time and have a lot of stress and anxiety built up regarding all of this. I have no relief. I look forward to relief. In the meantime, I must be able to get my tasks done and completed. I really want to some time to just relax and to get my obligations completed.

These matters are just a concept for some. This is my reality. I look back at the year of events and no matter what, I am no closer to getting some answers. What must I do? I am going to figure some things out if necessary. Parenthood is very difficult for me these days. The lies that I am given and the behaviors that I have seen add up to many things. It has been a long year and now, this? I still have so much to do.

And then, I thought that I would have an adult night with some of the ladies from the church. Oh, was I wrong. So, I made a small faux pas and now, do I feel small for it. "oh, just wanted to tell you something small...about your phone". Ok. I have to remember that I am with people that are very "soft" around the edges. I have to remember that I must keep a distance from many or they might feel put off with me. It is amazing. So many do not undestand the past year and how do I explain it all? I can't. I will not any more. What is mine, is mine. I have no desire to keep others in the loop about what is going on. How can anyone understand what is going on. At times, I do not understand what is going on. But, I do understand that I must go through this. I am hoping and believing that this will improve.

Looking. Hoping. Believing on.
