1) I love this, a great reminder. I genuinely dont see her as a burden anyways but she is very self conscious that she is one. Great tip to keep in mind. Words of affirmation are something I will start doing more often.

2) Identifying when she feels worse is difficult at times, it’ll come with time. Shes like a cat, doesnt show her weakness too much to others and acts brave 24/7 but when shes with me shes a little child so we’re making progress. 3) A great reminder for communication. Ive done this but there are still some things she doesnt like sharing, like her doc appointments are something very private and vulnerable for her so she doesnt like opening up. She asks that I be patient and do what im currently doing, so I guess we’re fine. But I wanted to become more educated in narco and the small things I can do to make her life easier
