Mommy Did It! | Bath Time

Y'all don't even know how BIG, like GINORMOUS, this is. To say I have been terrified of doing this part of Dempsey care is a gross understatement.

I was so scared of it I ran, almost literally, away and made a nurse's assistant do it because I couldn't stand the thought of watching my baby in any more pain.

My physical being felt weak and empty at the thought of bath time. As time progressed Jake started doing it but I still left the room.

Then, yesterday, Jake and I fid it together. I actually helped a little. It wasn't as bad as I had envisioned. Still scary but no longer terrifying.

Today, Jake is away doing his much needed self-care and I felt compelled to take on this task ALONE. Crazy, right?! Yes. Crazy. I just couldn't stomach the thought of leaving that for Jake after him not getting away from hospital yesterday. In a way I saw this as a means of blessing my amazing husband. It's incredible what you will do for a good man like my husband. I just want him to be able to relax as much as possible.

So, all this to say I DID IT AND SURVIVED. Praise God. Strength is returning. Empowerment is slowly coming. Everything we need in the amounts we can handle when we need. God is so good.

Prayer request: Please pray that confidnce continues to grow. Pray for miraculous healing. Pray for a miraculously easy journey through leukemia gor Dempsey. Pray lives are changed and eternity gains some more members. ❤️
