so my mom is now very mad at me becaus im irratable right now and snappy. ive been in the hospital a few days now and have been on a clear liquid diet. they did a few big ol tests to me and poked me to either get blood or try and iv 12 times so my arms look like a drugies and today they said i could have what i wanted to eat but when i tryed calling they said that i was on a low residue diet and couldnt get what i orderd so i asked them to bring me up a menu for low residue diets and it was mostly the same stuff on clear liquid diet so i was complaining that i couldnt get what i want now my mom is all bitchy i no i shouldnt say that about my mom but its true and its just irritating me even more that she is getting an attitude because im haveing a bad tie. its like im supposed to be all happy and normal even tho im hurting geting iv steriroids that make me hungry when i cant eat and have more holes in me then a druggie. i have no idea if im in the wrong will someone tell me what i should be doing?

I am so sorry you mom is not being loving and nurturing. My mom hasn't been either. What i udnerstand is she is scared. I get scared when the toung people in my life are sick. I feel so helpless. I don't want to see them in pain or struggling. I feel helpless and i don't have an answer for them. I will pray for you and msot of all your mom. I hope she can find some support for herself

I feel the exact same way about my mum sometimes . I've been in for IV steriod tonnes of times and i know they make me feel alot more irritable than normal :S

But y'know you have a RIGHT to feel angry , and sad at times as crohnies have to go through quite alot , and people who haven't been in our position often don't understand .

What makes me feel better about my mum is the fact that mothers love their children unconditionally , i mean they did carry us around for 9 months ! And mothers just want whats best for their children . When their child gets sick there is not much they can do exept watch as they put the care of that child into the hands of others ( doctors , nurses ect ) and that can be very difficult so i guess our mums get stressed sometimes .

Hope your feeling better soon
