a day agoMy child isn't handling it at all. My spouse and I lost everything in a house fire together on the 28th. It's been terrible, but luckily he loves me as well as her.

a day agoExperiencing such a devastating loss while managing cancer treatment adds an overwhelming layer of stress for the entire family. Children often need extra time and patience to process traumatic events like house fires, and it's completely understandable that your child is struggling to cope with losing familiar belongings and their sense of security during an already challenging time for your family.
