When Mom Gets Sick

Posted on February 25, 2013 by iMOM

When my friend Jennifer went out for a neighborhood bike ride with her 7-year-old son, she never dreamed that she wouldn’t make it back to the house within the hour. But an accident left her hospitalized with a broken pelvis and other injuries for days, and in the bed recovering for weeks. Problem was, her husband still needed to get to work, her kids to school and activities, and everyone needed to eat—three times a day!

In lots of our homes, taking mom out of the daily picture is equivalent to inserting a truckload of chaos. You’re the keeper of all schedules, the planner of all meals, and the coordinator of all children’s activities. So here’s what you need to help your crew survive the unexpected.

This did happen to me, I went to hospital to have my 4th baby expecting to be back home within hours like the previous 3 births. 14 days later I and my baby left the hospital both very blessed to be alive and semi well.
My mother cancelled her holiday came to my town and took over until nab was 6 weeks old. Luckily my husband let her do this and it all worked out brilliantly.
But without my mum it would have been a major disaster.
