Default If my kids make it through my recovery I will be surprised

Omg I am telling you I am about to ship my kids off to a remote island. They are literally driving me nuts. They are bickering about everything and not helping me do anything. I am so sore and then to have to yell at them hurts my stomach even more. I am serously about to have a nervous breakdown. My son dropped his TV onto the floorbecause he was trying to hook up a game system and didnt want help from the little one. The little one goes into my daughters room and snatches toys runs through the house and throws them so then my daughter yells at him, it is driving me crazy I cant take this. I swear if they would of let me stay in the hospital until I was completely recovered I would have. Better yet just admit me to the nut house thats where I need to be I really just want to cry but cant cuz it hurts

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I feel for you. I only have one, but I really had no patience during my recovery period. Thank God I had some friends and family to help me out. Can you rent them a movie off tv?

LOL! i sent my daughter away for the first week. i know not everybody has the ability to do that but i HAD to. lol. shes only 5. so when she came back home i made sure i did things with her, or made her feel included. we went walking around the block together twice a day. and she would always ask me if i needed anything which struck me as odd then, but i am grateful for now. lol! everyone will adjust and you will be fine. take some deep breaths...and if you have to yell at them press a pillow against your middle while doing so

I agree with MsVickie. I didn't hesitate when my friend offered to take Raquel to the pool, to bible school, to her house. You are the most important right now, you and your recovery.

Awww, ((((((((HUGS))))))))
Yes, ship them off to the island next door.
As every one says, have a friend or two or three help you out.


They are most likely upset with your surgery, and insecure about their Daddy deploying as well, but keeping it all in, and unable to cope in a constructive way, so are acting out.
If you feel the need to yell, hug them instead, and tell them yquitely ou are not feeling well. Sit them down and have a long heart to heart talk. Never mind that they may not be old enough to understand the half of what you are talking about, it's your sincerity that counts, that you do care about them, and you wanted to get healthier so you can be a more participating Mom for them, and you need their help right now in keeping house.

Don't act as if you are Super Mom and can do everything despite.
Let them know that there are times when you are weak and need help.
Ask them to help you out, just little things like carrying plates, cooking together, maybe have them help you make your shakes and stuff, if they are curious, let them have a taste of what you are eating/drinking.
There's no way you can control kids unless they are willing to be controled, and if just *tell* them what to do, they are going to revolt. Let them feel they are part of the *game*, plan what to do with them, and you may be surprised how well they will take things,

((((((HUGS)))))

(((((BECKA))))) My kids came to the hospital after my surgery and I had to throw them out Our hospital is pretty lenient since they keep us to ourselves.... You wouldn't think a 5 and a 13 year old would bicker at each other so much........

GET HELP!!!!! I don't know what I would have done / would do without my Mom. She saved my butt lots! Lets just say my two oldest boys (the 13 year old and the 36 year old) aren't the most helpful....
