Parents feel guilty about not have the energy to play with their children or not being able to take them to places because they have no energy. In reality, most children just want their parents’ attention & love. So, if you can connect with them 2 minutes a day you're winning.

Give your children, and family, an idea of how much energy you have by simply saying a number. Fill in the battery score from 1-5 with things you can cope with, tell your family, and remind them that energy levels fluctuate throughout the day and week.

The act of helping others blooms at Christmas time so ask for help. It makes people feel good and warm inside. Ask friends and family to do things for you, from domestic stuff to bringing the sparkle to you and your kids. And remember don’t feel guilty about asking.

Kids often want to help at home. Giving them jobs can help them feel included and a valued member of the family. Sit down with them and decide what is age appropriate. #christmashelping #parentingwithcancer #mumswithcancer #dadswithcancer #familiesaffectedbycancer
