I Am Feeling Really Useless Today Because Knowing That Something Needs To Be Done About Adam's Hearing And I Cant Seem To Get Anyone To Listen To Me And I Feel Like I Am Letting Him Down In A Way Because Nothing Is Getting Done. Even Though He Tells Me That I Am Doing Everything I Can It Just Seems Like There Should Be Something Else I Can Do But I Am Out Of Ideas I Mean I Have Wrote The Governor And The Prison Commissioner More Times Than I Can Count. I Have Contacted Everybody That I Could Think But Its Doesnt Seem To Be Working. Does Anyone Else Ever Feel Like You Are Not Doing Enough When You Know You Are--shea

I am having those same feelings. I know I have done everything possible for my son's hearing next week, but I keep thinking is there anything else I can do. I think no matter what we do there is always that doubt of we could do more. When their lives are in the hands of someone else there is just so much you can do. I keep telling my son that I would never want someone else controlling my life. I have discovered the whole process is hurry up and wait. I am sure you have done everything in your power. Lighten up on yourself. Take a bubble bath, get a manicure, pedicure. In other words do something for yourself. This is not to say stop trying to help, but take a breath and start again.
You are in my prayers.
