Hi,
I am a mother and carer to my wonderful, lovable baby boy who's now 14 months old, born with down syndrome. I have an older son who's 20 years old so because of the gap i feel like a new mother altogether coupled with my new role as a carer. My husband is also disabled with a long term illness, so basically I have an adult and a child to look after
There are tough times which I had never anticipated, times when I had to be strong but inside im trembling and scared. Sometimes I lost touch with myself, forget to comb my hair, hate to look at myself in the mirror as I hardly have time to take care of myself, I know I look very old for my age and its reach a phase that I just dont care how I look anymore. My main concern is that both my husband and my child are well looked after, afterall, if im feeling like this, just imagine what they must be going through. Im glad i got that out, thanks all for listening
