		<description>If you need a little medication to help get over the depression, by all means use it. There is nothing wrong with that. When things get out of whack with our bodies, it is something we often need help with. But the main thing is remember you are a great mommy with great love for your children and you are a great blogger with many readers! You are also human and all the emotions you are feeling are very human and you will find lots of others who could tell you they felt just like you do at some time in their lives.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s really tough not seeing family at Christmas - this year I can certainly relate with your feelings! You sound like a wonderful mommy, and I have no doubt that your children know their mommy still loves them very much.</description>

		<description>I am sorry you are feeling down.  Your children are young and its tough for them to understand.  But they aren&#039;t mad at you.  They are just mad at the situation.  They still love their momma</description>

		<description>I hope you&#039;re getting enough sunlight while you are recovering.  Probably hard since Washington is kind of a cloudy state.  Some of the depression may be more of just not being able to get outside, but of course a bigger part is missing your children in your own arms.
Let us count down with you, if you want us to.
Only four more weeks.</description>

		<description>I understand how you feel.  I had a hysterectomy when I was 29, just before Christmas--my youngest was then 4 (and the boys were 7 and 11).
It was mentally more difficult than the actual physical pain.
Hormones get out of whack, too.</description>

		<description>I understand depression, so with all that is going on for you I totally get that you would be feeling very low.

The thought of not being able to hug my 4 y/o daughter or play with her is too much let alone having to live it as you are having to.

It seems you are resting up, though and I&#039;m glad to know that. Hang in there. We&#039;re all hanging in there with you. I know another four weeks seems a long time when you&#039;re out of action.

		<description>The best advice I was given was that it *does* get better.  It&#039;s tough to hear now but at least you do know there is light at the end of the tunnel.  It really does get better.  Also, you know you do have a lot to be thankful for.  Watch the news then look at the kids.  Bed is a great place but so it the world outside.  You got to be in it.  Loads of people want you to be.  *hugs*</description>
