Melissa Mar 23, 2011 (1 year ago)When Hunter is mad about having D we let him vent. He has every right to his feelings. We acknowledge them, talk about it. Usually he feels better knowing that his feelings are heard. There have been times when we have taken a pump break since he was not thrilled with being connected 24/7. We listen and talk a lot.
