We had two pretty good days. Alot of kid events and issues (I stayed home one day with a sick D and had multiple kid sporting events). I found out that my W has been battling a chronic and painful health issue that has caused much of the irritablility and anger. I offered my complete concern and support. I even did the hug and "it will be alright". I feel terrible in that I cannot help her the way I normally would because of the S/D. She did try to blame the health issue on me (the stress of the S/D). Crazy logic.
I will help her as much as she lets me but try not to pursue.
This really stinks for her in that she carring a tremendous load with the S/D, her health issues, her familty issues (extreme stress from critical health problems), work issues, etc. I want to help her but am blocked from doing little else than showing understanding and concern.
I want to suggest to her to put the D on hold until these other issues are resolved so that I can help her. She has to be considering this in some way. It seems that I have to wait for her to make this move.
