Bad news tonight

Some of you may know my wife is a child protective worker
She got a call tonight that a baby had died
Ifeel so bad for her,
it is even harder to comfort her because she isn't allowed to tell me about the case, or her involvment.

She has been doing this for five years now, I think I am going to suggest she look for another job in the department


the poor baby

Some jobs we choose are definitely more emotionally draining than others... leading to physical exhaustion and yes... destruction of over all health/relationships.

Thank goodness we have people that can withstand some of the most horrible inhuman acts. It is so individaul and unique and our tolerance level can ultimately be determined by our own selves.

Only you and your wife can determine the benefits or destructions it is having on first, her overall wellness... as well as your relationship as a couple.

Best of luck. rose

She is off taking a kid to guitar lesson
Said she wanted to do shopping to keep busy
She was already taking a personal day tomorrow, and I have it off so we can have some time together
