Some days I'm quite happy I don't know what comes next. Other days I wish I did so I could stop things from happening.
On Thursday my daughter took a fall down the stairs at her house. She could not break the fall with her hands as she was carrying the baby in his car seat and landed on her side and back. She suffered a big injury to her liver and the first 24 hours were all about waiting. Anxious waiting. She has a concussion and probably a whiplash injury to her neck. We will find out after the CT she's taking right now.
Suddenly I have found myself the primary caregiver of two little boys for the forseeable future. The first day was quite stressful, but things are slowly falling into place as they tend to do.
I keep telling myself to take deep breaths but I'm afraid I will crumble If I do. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
Don't I feel the fool complaining the
other day about the little problems this summer...
Sending hugs your way Nina Lise!!!!!

ReplyDeleteOh sweetie, my heart goes out to you. I hope your daughter is okay and that she will heal and be just fine. Those babes will be a handful, make sure you sleep when they sleep, remember? Prayers for you all. xox
ReplyDeleteI hope your daughter heals up quickly and the little ones behave well for you.
ReplyDeleteOh dear Nina Lise, I’m sending you hugs and healing thoughts for your daughter! Take care!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your daughter's accident, but it sounds like she will make a full recovery. What a blessing that you are nearby to help as she heals! What would she and her family do without you? So as someone else said, care for yourself every moment that you can!
ReplyDeleteAll the best to all of you!
So sorry to hear about her fall. I hope she recovers quickly......and how lucky for her and the boys that you are able to help out. Prayers for all of you....
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter. I'm sure the doctors will do everything they can, and that this will come out at the right side. Think positiv!!.
ReplyDeleteThe baby is ok, and thats a blessing.
Even if you have a huge responsibility just now, I belive you will cope. Be happy that you don't know tomorrow. We all need to live today.
Pray for you.
I'm so sorry to hear of your daughter's accident. I hope she will be better soon!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time with your grandsons!
Hoping your daughter recovers from her accident quickly and completely. How wonderful for her that you are able to provide loving care to her wonderful boys. DO breathe deeply and take care of yourself, too. Prayers for you all. mdmontalvo@yahoo.com
ReplyDeletebest wishes to your daughter for a speedy recovery and much energy to you to keep up with the little boys.
ReplyDeleteHoping your daughter recovers quickly and wishing you the best with the little ones... hoping you will keep up with them!!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your daughter! I am sending good vibes your family's way. Hope all goes well in the end and that your daughter makes a full recovery. And hope the little ones are doing ok too.
ReplyDeleteLove and healing prayers for you all!
ReplyDeleteYou are showing your grand babies what family
is all about...good times and hard times.
Set aside a little time after their bed time to
do a little crumbling....you are entitled.
Then pick up the crumbles and carry on :)
Oh no. This is awful!!! I am so sorry to read this. You are all in my prayers. Hope your daughter will recover quick. A big hug to you Nina Lise!!
ReplyDeleteYes, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteThe shock is making you feel shaky at the moment Nina Lise but you will be able to cope. Those little ones will show you how. Rest when you can, Kris's advice is good, you need to crumble a little now and again. I do hope the news of your daughter is good and she will soon be recovering well. Sending you a big hug. Prioritise and you will get through this. xx
ReplyDeleteHow I wish I was closer so that I could help you take care of your beautiful grandsons so that you could care of your daughter. I am absolutely sending all my healing wishes to her and my love to you.
ReplyDeleteLots of prayers for daughter and hugs for you and the little boys. I hope she heals quickly.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about this but you will come through it. Stay strong.
ReplyDeleteSending all my best wishes for your daughter to make a full and quick recovery.
Oh Nina, how terrible. My thoughts are with you, stay strong till it's over then take the time to crumble.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it will help you and you daughter to know that good wishes are flowing to you from all over the world.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you all! You must know more about your daughter's prognosis by now. Creating a routine with the little boys will make things a bit easier, and you must "put the oxygen mask on your own face before you start helping the child". Take care of yourself!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your daughter but so glad the baby is fine. Let her know we are all wishing the best for her and a speedy recovery!
ReplyDeleteI will - and for you as well.
ReplyDeleteHugs

Uff, det var da skrekkelig leit. Jeg krysser fingrene og håper det går bra med datteren din. Ønsker henne god bedring.
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear that your daughter is getting better. You are amazing - I don't think I could take on a baby and a toddler for so much time.
ReplyDeleteHang in there. Prayers are still being sent.
