You think you have it bad (8)

I was going through the channels looking for something to watch and i hear something about triplets so i went back to it. It was Dr.Phil and it was a show about a women with the only blind and deaf triplets in the world. The triplets are 6 and still in diapers and her whole world is consumed by them. Her marriage is starting to fall apart because of all this. She has another daughter that is 9(i think) and don't have time to spend with her. Poor little girl said she was lonely but can you blame the mother for that her hands are full. Such a hard situation to hear i can't imagine living it. Imagine not being able to communicate with your children. My heart went out to this lady and the way she has time for nothing.

Did anyone else see this?

This lady needs help i think the government should try to give her a bit of assistance to give her a break sometimes.

Any comments?

Yes I saw the show also.

Marriage and children are hard enough when everyone is healthy. I can sympathize on how she feels, and now the marriage is falling apart too. I for one, don't think that I could live her in shoes.

As for the 9 year old, she knows her moms attention needs to be focused on the triplets, and she is basically growing up without a real childhood. I hope that as she grows older she does not turn on her mother because of the things she missed out on.

As for the government giving assistance, what has the government done that has been good for you or anyone these days?

I never watch Dr Phil, he exploits people , their pain, and emotional fragility for $$$ and tv ratings..VERY unethical conduct..........

I was once told by two very wise women that no matter what one has to face in life there are always others who have heavier burdens but move on and succeed in their lives.I have had the chance in life to meet and be included in the lives of some of these people and have learned and been inspired by all they have overcome and achieved despite all odds.That's why I keep going...if they could so can I.

How about a young pregnant woman here in Edmonton a couple of weeks ago. She and her husband went to a park and a storm blew in with lightning. Seven people were hit and her husband was killed and she lost the baby too. What started out as a great day for a young happy couple ended in her alone and having to live with her loss. I can't imagine...

I don't watch Dr.phil either but this had caught my attention. It dosen't matter which show it was i was talking about the womens situation.

Thanks for confirming why I don't watch news and talk shows.
