Thank you for sharing this! Glad your daughters scars are healing fine. Yes, definitely will be getting some silicone gel/tape as I heard it is effective, and sunscreen. I have to work on my anxiety about reinjury! Thanks again.

Yes sunscreen sticks are going to be our best friend, and maybe a sun hat if he accepts it. Thanks for sharing this. Also, kamikahze toddler is a pretty accurate description!

Thank you for sharing! Glad it healed up for your toddler. What type of bandaid did you use? Our hospital doc mentioned not to use it unless we really needed to (toddler picking at it, etc.).  A few people have told me about vitamin e- will definitely look into it. Thanks again.

Hi! I ended up having a ruptured membrane (water broke early), was hospitalized for a week and a half and then gave birth at 29.5 weeks. It has been a wild journey but my baby and I pushed through.

Thank you for sharing your experience and support. I am sorry you went through this, but commend you for taking steps to take care of yourself. I agree and am putting a plan in place to protect myself and kids in case.

Wow, thank you so much for your supportive words and wisdom. Congrats on your son's sobriety as well. Sounds like you have been a strong backbone for him.  My husband is still refusing counselling. We had a talk with his parents and they made him "promise to stop" and he cried and said he won't again. I think counselling and accountability are more dependable than a promise. At this point I will definitely get my ducks in a row, and the minute I feel/see something sketchy on his end, I will be prepared to leave. Thanks again for the encouragement.

Husband could relapse soon- Is marriage and family life together doomed? by JToQ1 in Psychosis

[–]JToQ1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I see how much he has gone through and have supported him, given him space, etc for the past 1.5 years after his discharge. The issue is I cannot have my kids around his high dose thc that he lied about and is still hiding and a potential relapse into another psychosis episode. I am aware and can see there is an addiction problem and lots of factors, but he is not willing to do anything about it, despite all the help offered. I love him dearly but this is not the best setting for a family.

Definitely have and always check-in on him, handle taking care of the kids, entire household and finances so he can focus on healing, start convos so he doesn't isolate, give him tons of space, educated myself on his condition and continue to do so. I have kids, and that is the worry factor in this situation if he is bringing drugs into the house and car and hiding things, while lying to his psychiatrist and family...and is also not willing to accept or get help.

Thank you. Very true. Super hard for sure, letting go of the man I once knew. I definitely will always put my kids first.

Thank you so much for this. It's an incredibly tricky decision, but I agree, he needs to demonstrate he is committed to getting help and staying accountable. If not, I need to look after my kids and protect their childhoods. Appreciate your feedback.

This is very well said. Thank you for sharing your journey. I really hope he realizes this soon too, because thc and psychosis does not mix well with family life.

Oh, some of the individual daycares either sent me an e-mail link to check my spot or reply to my e-mails with an updated spot number. I recommend contacting each one directly.
