Separation Anxiety!

Well I knew this day was coming for a while now but it doesn't make it any easier. My mom has been staying with us since the middle of June and she just pulled out of the driveway to go home. She has been such a big help to me and my family! I know she needs to go back to work and go home but I'm scared without her here. She helped me when I couldn't walk because my leg wouldn't work after having 2 biopsies back to back and being in such pain from the osteomyelitis. I had to retrain my leg and think about making it work with every step. I can now walk without a walker or wheelchair though! That's one good thing. I still have to think about it when I'm walking up and down the stairs. She is coming back on Monday but this will be the first day and I guess it will get easier when we get used to it. She also just took my daughter to her dads and that's always hard. God, I just can't stop crying. Its not like I'm here alone my husband and son are here but there is nothing like your mom when your not feeling good. I gotta pull myself together!! I can't wait until I'm better and don't need help anymore. I used to be the one who helped everyone and took care of the kids. It's hard when you have to depend on people. Oh well I'll make it, I always do.
