Week 9 Day 6

   It’s hard for me to feel helpless.  Seeing the difficult time my partner is having and knowing there is absolutely nothing I can do to ease her discomfort is painful for me.
   The nausea, back-aches and tiredness are palpable.  I can get her whatever food she needs, give her massages and let her sleep 12 hours a day, but it still won’t be enough. 
   As a guy who is pretty proactive in solving problems, that makes me fee a bit like an ass.  Even though I know there is nothing I can do.
