Thank you for your thoughts. It really made me put things more in perspective about my own life. I wish you both well and will visit your blog again. - Kitty
As I read your hubby's words it, once again, has made me realize how lucky we are. My hubby is a gem. He has learned to go wit the flow. He has stepped up to the plate. This illness we have has brought us so much closer. I can rely on him. I know this deep down in my soul and heart. He, like your hubby, is a keeper. Hugs, LuAnne
Thanks everyone, for your kind words. Hubby really wrote from the heart. I just copied your comments and forwarded them to him. He will be writing more in the coming weeks. :)
Oh what a gem of a post as well as a gem of a man! Please thank him from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to write such helpful words to newbie hubbies along this difficult path. He may never know how many Lupies have printed this out, or e-mailed his blog entry and begged their significant others to read his words of wisdom.
Mine had me fooled. I thought he got it. He is deep in denial. his mom died of MS, so how could he NOT understand? The defenses are strong. I am sooo lonely in my brain, waiting for him to catch up with my reality. I cannot be the person he thinks I am; the person I want to be for him.
It is a long process. It would be easier if we were on the road together, holding hands.

Loretta-I am glad to have re-found you! Your husband's words are poinant and written from his own pain and growth. Please thank him. Margo
