Thanks kml, I always look forward to your voice of reason.

Yes, my husband is brain injured, and going through a lot of transitional changes as well. He has a nerve block scheduled for the end of the month and needs me to take him and bring him home. Its going to be wierd to ask for that time off at work, because my nosey boss has figured out we are having problems, but I am still his wife at the end of day and I still care about him.

He should be transitioned out of the Army completely between Dec-Feb, and then wants to apply to college to start using his GI Bill and search for a job, as well as has to apply for some combat related pay or something. Of course he wants me to help him with him, so its kind of awkward, because we are still really close friends.

He doesn't want to be divorced or seperated, but of course he isn't at home either, so its wierd because he talks about all of these projects he wants to do to the house, and all I do is say I need some time. I make sure when he is home that I am not there, so we haven't really spoken in a while.

Its definitely a lot to think about, and I do want things to work out because I do think this is all inter-related to this brain injury and war experiences. I still want to fight for my marriage, but perhaps later on down the road, not right now, have to focus on myself. I appreciate being able to come here and be honest about things, as crazy as they are, its really helpful.
