The image below sums up how I feel when during a flare up and my little girl wants me to play with her, pick her up from cuddles and just generally spend time with her. When you have a chronic illness it is hard to ensure you are there for that little person who depends on no matter what time of the day.

I am blessed to have a husband who is so understanding with my psoriatic  arthritis. He does try to get our little girl to go to himy for cuddles etc but we all know deep down sometimes it is just a mothers love our child craves.
