Snodderly, ty! I am doing quite well actually...keeping busy and doing even more with the girls. Seems the weather has broken it has been about 60 degrees the past 3-4 days!
I do understand quite a bit of the depression part...went through a bout of a bad one after our 2nd child.
was interested if this med...elavil may help him...if anyone knows first hand anything of it
he is and has been talking of coming home...not coming home. we have been having BIG issues with our 9 y/o and sleeping problems.As expected it is affecting her in every way, school, crankiness, being negative...she is frightened and we have not figured out why yet...working on it in family counciling again this week.
in fact last night about 2am...she was still awake, keeping me awake. we were sitting in the living room talking and she wanted to talk to her dad...she was shaking, crying on the verge of being hysterical. I allowed the phone call to h, he didnt mind at all of course...surprisingly we hung up saying we would see him tomorrow but he was at the house within 40 min...
my gosh...the way they were with one another was awesome! brought tears of joy to my eyes...
one day at a time. we have so much going on...it has been a week...short time but we have gotten along famously! working together with d's issue and our other d...softball has started and h coaches. he has been around even more but most of all he has been talking...opening up a bit. I simply listen and feel truly blessed to have a bit of this again.
i have set a new goal...to try to get through every new day without any pettiness...or arguing. 24-48 hr rule still applies on reacting.
the validating, praising , please and thank yous...appreciation is a way of living for me now...
again one day at a time.
Seeking answers,
yes, he has been using androgel for the low t since Sept.. have seen some but very little improvement however the Dr said it could take up to 6-8- months to benefit fully. I am assuming if the dr has prescribed an a/d for any reason, that his counts have come up to where the a/d wont hinder his progress
me 39 h 38 kids 9 and 6 h left 8/9/09 loving and devoted wife and mother still going...10 months later...
