Exclamation You're doing the best you can, Robin...

Robin, please don't say that you are doing a horrible job or even thinkt that. You are doing everything you can for that little girl and I think she is very lucky to have a mother who is so caring and concerned. Many aren't that lucky.

I'm sure the stress and fatigue of the holidays, the move, and everything else hasn't helped matters. I doubt I would be able to cope as well as you are with everything. You are doing a great job, and I think you need to hear that .

Those highs are rough (i know ). When I get up into those high numbers, which happens at times, I also feel like pure ****. It really is exhausting just to function during the day. But try to think of it this way, once she is seen and is taken care of she will experience much, MUCH fewer of these kind of days. I think it's wise to bring Eri back to the ER if she is feeling the same way tomorrow. It's apparent that she is not feeling well and needs to be treated. Or maybe even consider bringing her to her new endo. I know she doesn't have an appt. , but if they are a good doctor's office they'll make sure she gets seen. I actually did this once myself. I didn't have an apt., but I drove myself to my Endo's and met with him. It was a brief visit, but I felt a lot better just talking with him for a while. If they won't see you, I probably then would go to the ER.

I really feel for both you and Eri. I know it seems stressful right now, but I am hopeful that things will improve. And, Robin, please don't worry about posting sporadically, we understand that you have a lot going on. You don't have to apologize for that at all! One more thing...you are so busy with everything and everyone, but don't forget to take care of yourself. Be kind to yourself and give yourself a break too.

I hope things get sorted out tomorrow and hope Eri feels better. Things will look up! We'll be thinking about you both. Please update us on how things go, when you can.

Take care.
