Crazy lady

Well today I am completely beyond control of myself with Caitlin. I just don't know what to do with her or for her anymore! She refuses to drink and eat anything remotely good for her and on top of all of that she seems to have caught some kind of virus when she was in the hospital so now there's that to deal with too and Maddie might be on the verge of catching that. I had to bring Maddie to daycare with Caitlin in the car this morning and have her teacher come out and get her since I can't bring Caitie around anyone/anywhere there are germs, this is what leads me to believe she caught something at the hospital when we were stuck waiting there. I swear, you just can't win.

I never thought I would turn into such a crazy insane yellilng screaming mother to my kids, but this seems beyond bearable and I just don't know where to find the strength to argue with her anymore. I realize she's not feeling good and the meds are really affecting her behaviour but what she's not realizing is that this is for her own good and if she continues to not let me care for her as needed I will be on my way back to the hospital again tonight...

So I hope that she forgives me for yelling and screaming at her at this point because I'm feeling like such a failure for not having more patience with her but it's just so impossible...

you are not failure, you are an awesome mom and she won't remember any of this tomorrow. When it gets out of control, just walk away. She won't know what hit her. Go back 1 minute later and get down to her level and talk to her. You can do it, I know you can. Be strong. If all else fails, call Nanny 911!! LOL
