Dinah,
I'm sorry you had to go through that the other night. I can imagine it was stressful to the extreme. I don't have kids, so I can't relate from a personal standpoint, but it sure sounds like you are handling things with him just fine. And you know, in some ways, it's not so bad for him to see that people can have a meltdown and then move on. Besides I'm quite sure that all the other times with your son are far greater in number and quality. He won't forget the lessons from the good times, either. Being a good enough mother does not mean being a perfect mother. And I am quite sure that you ARE good enough.

Take care of you, sweetie. Put that oxygen on yourself. I hope home health sends a caring and strong-willed person to help your dad and relieve you of some of that stress. And I hope your mom is doing better at the hospital.
