Confessions of a Rare Disease Mama
When the "FOMO" starts creeping in as a medical parent
Have you experienced FOMO as a special needs parent? Of course you have. We all have. In fact, for us, it's a daily struggle. There are SO many more things for us to consider when asked to do something: is it handicap accessible? Will it be too much stimulation and trigger more seizures? How many people will be there? Will they be exposed to too many germs? What if they get sick again and end up back in the hospital? Will there be somewhere where we can change them?
This week I reflect on a couple significant FOMO experiences I have had lately with my kids, how I handled them, and how I refocused that grief into gratitude. Happy listening, friends!
