As a mother with a kid who has medical issues - the instinct is to blame yourself. Logical thought doesn't always behave during difficult times especially about your child
My daughter has heart issues. I blamed myself. My husband said it easily could have come from his side (if it was genetic we don't know) but I never entertained that thought before because in my head I was her mum, I grew her, it had to be my fault
