#TheGraduate Today marks the #lastday of my year as a #GraduateRegisteredNurse. After 6 months in #PICU followed by 6 months in #PaediatricHaematologyAndOncology I just signed off on my #final shift as a grad in the Oncology ward. Many of you know that my year has been rough, but particularly my time in Haem/Onc has been super tough, both professionally & personally... Professionally, I struggled with the idea of “making kids sick in order to make them better”, I felt like we had it all backwards & I left work most days feeling awful about what I’d had to do to these little people, even though I knew it was for the best patient outcomes...I wanted to do more, I wanted to fix them & I wanted to do it as soon as possible. I went into the ward with my guard up & I worked hard to protect myself knowing that if you invest too much into your patients there’s nothing left for your family...that’s where the personally tough stuff comes in... ... I went home everyday to my incredibly forgiving, loving, amazing kids...I haven’t been proud of this before, but I realised recently that it’s actually a MASSIVE achievement...Not only did I just complete my grad year in 2 of the highest acuity paediatric units in the state, but I did it as a #SoloMum. Home life has been a huge struggle for the 4 of us navigating shift work, parenting, 3 kids at 3 different schools, soccer, footy, dance, and the grief & loss of our family. It’s been an unwanted adjustment for us all, there is so much that we have dealt with quietly as a family...there have been so many layers of #hard for us all, it’s been unfair & unkind, we have all felt rejected, broken & not enough...it’s honestly been the hardest thing for me to try & do my job well, & not let on at work how hard things were & then come home & support my beautiful, but really hurting kids... I am so #proud of us for making it through the absolute hardest year TOGETHER...WE MADE IT! It’s been hard to see the blessings this year, I’m not going to lie, all I can hope is that somehow, in some small way I was a blessing to the families at work & that my babies will look back at this year and be proud of everything we achieved together. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt3UetuA5cnwynG96UV8ci7X_8pYJK1kPFBaY40/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1piulq8ozcd55

5 happy things

Tagged by @what-the-whattttt and @blueredfetch. ❤️

I never get around to answer these, but this one should be quick.

1. That I get to see Rebecca grow up ( wayyy to fast ) and all the joys she has, discovering the world around her.

2. Feeling my body improve with physical therapy

3. When someone compliments my writing.

4. Feeling a stronger and stronger connection with my husband as the years pass by.

5. Going on dinner dates, order something with fries and just talk, talk, talk.

Sorry, if you already answered this, but I tag: @queerlybelovedones, @thefatebetweenus, @solomum @brianeely @contentlilmama

Thank y'all so much! I'm willing to try all of this to get it to stop ha @stars-andconstellations @solomum

I like you am going down the solo mama route and with donor sperm! Could you tell me your story and how you went about it?. How did your family react? And will you tell people who asks about the "father"? I'm struggling with that side of things and some of my family are very judgemental.

Hello anon! How I went about it? (Haven’t don anything yet - but follow along and we’ll see how it goes!) Well I track my ovulation with OPKs and have purchased donor sperm online, which I will inseminate when I ovulate. I would have gone the clinic route (which is free here) but I’m too overweight for them to accept me. (Read more here: http://solomum.tumblr.com/projectFryd ) And like this I also avoid any hormonal medicines. 

My family knows that I want be a solomum and they’re 110% supportive - so I’m afraid I can’t really help you with judgemental families… 

And it will be no secret that there is NO father. There’s a donor and that’s it. I don’t plan on keeping that a secret from anyone. If everyone knows I won’t need to ‘sit my child down’ and reveal a big secret later on.
