Child in hospital for Christmas - Heartbroken mom Posted: Dec 11th, 2017 - 8:52 pm
I could use some prayers. My child recently attempted suicide and fortunately was found in time. She is getting out of ICU tomorrow and the doctors anticipate her being in the children's hospital another week then to a psych hospital for at least a week. God intervened to have her life saved and it's hard dealing with all that happened that led up this and now knowing she can't be home for Christmas. Only a few close relatives know what happened because there is a lot of stigma about mental health and suicide attempts with hospitalizations and when she was admitted one time before I got blasted by some folks on social media to not be sharing that kind of thing on there saying her illness should be private - yet I pointed out that if kids are in hospitals for other illnesses it is "society correct" to get support on social media instead of ridicule. I feel so alone. I try to stay strong when in the room with her and when I leave I just cry.
