Belongs to: Therapist Cry's While Listening to Wings of Maria Pt 1 and 2 by Tool
My son was paralyzed at age 20 and I take care of him at home. Then my parents died in 2022, just 13 days apart. I can’t even…Just to be clear this is “Wings For Marie (Pt 1)” and “10,000 Days (Wings For Marie Pt 2)” making up a single 17 minute track.
I’m so sorry for all the losses and hardships you’ve been dealing with, friend. There’s a deep, unique pain in losing the people who raised you while you’re already caring for your own child through such a challenging situation. The foundation of your own life is being shaken and you’re just trying to hold everything together, doing your best to keep being the caring, supportive parent you’ve always been. You’re trying so hard to keep everything from falling apart, to stay strong for your son and everyone else around you, but it feels like you’re being pulled in so many directions at once. It makes sense to feel like you can’t even process one thing before the next hits you. It’s so much, so intense - just objectively a lot for your heart to deal with, and you have the absolute right to express it.
Your son is so fortunate to have you in his corner, fighting for him and supporting him. You ARE a good parent, and sometimes it includes to embrace your own vulnerability when it hits you the most too. I hope you know and can hold on to the fact that struggling doesn’t make you a bad parent in any way. It’s actually a sign that you’re fully engaged in caring for him and navigating this journey together. I’m sure there are days when it feels like too much, but the fact that you’re there for him, every single days shows how much you love him. You’re making such a big difference in his world, friend.
I hope you can find some space to rest, to reflect, and to care for yourself in the midst of everything that’s been happening. Even just a little bit every day. It’s okay to have time to pause and not be in movement for a bit. To reconnect with these parts of your heart that are wounded and also need to be cared for. You deserve that time to heal and to recharge, at your own pace.
