Vic, thats not cheating, that is being wise Glad you had some help. I can't begin to imagine how hard it would be with 4 kids, and a sick one to add to it. You amaze me.

Angelique, I have no advice because I too am new to it all and would have no idea. If you are worried try calling the maternal and child health line and see what they suggest. I have called them about Cooper and they were very helpful.

Jess, I am sorry Patrick isn't coming home just yet. Just try and remember he is being cared for and will be home before you know it. It must be such a strain emotionally. 'hugs'
