Your posting broke my heart. But it...Hi Cyn Mummy,<br /><br />Your posting broke my heart. But it is good that you pen it down to release part of your stress and frustration.<br /><br />I am also a single mum with 2 young kids. My husband passed away from cancer last year.<br /><br />I can identify with what you had shared. When my husband was sick, many friends offer to baby sit so that I can look after my husband. But the kids are not close to them hence not very comfortable in leaving the kids just with them. It is not that we don’t want others to help but don’t know how and what will help.. actually……….. Plus, the kids already have lost one playmate as the daddy can’t play with them, I do not want them to lose the other playmate (me) too. So struggling between spending time with the kids, looking after my husband and work – it is really not easy. It is not only physically challenging, but mentally too.<br /><br />Now that my husband has gone to Heaven – it does not make things easier. Besides grieving, tidying up hubby’s admin matter – running from govt agency to agency, adjusting to single income lifestyle, managing without a car and ‘chauffeur’, having to play dual role to the kids and making sure that they are coping well mentally and emotionally, striking a balance whether to be lenient to them because they lost one parent or be extra strict with them to teach them independency………… these are the issues that cross my mind daily.<br /><br />Yet time does not stop for us to take a rest or neither will time stop for us to take time to think. So no matter what, we still have to bite the bullet and go through no matter how tough it is. Friends do said that I am strong, or I have to be strong for the kids – I do not think I am strong. What else can I do besides moving on and do whatever I can to the best. Yet sometime the best seems inadequate. I don’t know if you feel the same way.<br /><br />I guess it is harder for you as kids do not rational like adults hence your concern about Jase. But I am sure Jase and Charmaine will grow up to appreciate what you have done for them and know that you love them both equally - it’s just that Charmaine need a little more attention now. Jia you and hang in there. Take care.<br /><br />Regards<br />EveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951360027837319593.post-34971640965347117302009-04-16T21:04:00.000+08:002009-04-16T21:04:00.000+08:00Hi Cynthia/Jolene,
I'm neither a direct friend of ...Hi Cynthia/Jolene,<br />I'm neither a direct friend of you Cynthia nor Jolene but I'm a concerned mother who has been following your blog ever since I saw it being mentioned on many mummies' blogs.<br /><br />Cynthia,<br />News has been spreading quickly ocer email about how your ex husband left you when Jase was one year old and you are pregnant with Charmaine. Sounds like the relationship ended in a bad light. I do not like to seem nosey however I'm concerned if he knows about Charmaine's condition.<br /><br />It could be because this blog is widely read by many communities in Singapore that no mention of your ex husband has been mentioned on this blog at all?<br /><br />I apologise if my comment is too nosey, you may delete it if you are not comfortable revealing about your ex husband. <br /><br />I mean no harm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951360027837319593.post-74082846653191095722009-04-16T18:59:00.000+08:002009-04-16T18:59:00.000+08:00my prayers are with you. i hope your litte girls g...my prayers are with you. i hope your litte girls gets well soon. may god bless you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951360027837319593.post-21324282377769658952009-04-15T17:58:00.000+08:002009-04-15T17:58:00.000+08:00hang on there cynthia.

U appeared to be pretty young to me but I really hope u remain strong for Char, Jase and yourself. <br />Initially, I thought I might be able to volunteer in your household chores and cooking while you can tend to the kids, but due to the stringent care n cleanliness needed, I dare not take any risk. =)Justinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10351007517252414461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951360027837319593.post-55473824787151515572009-04-14T19:47:00.000+08:002009-04-14T19:47:00.000+08:00I'm just an outsider, but i have been reading your...I'm just an outsider, but i have been reading your blog regularly.
