Wow, Pam... thanks for that post. It really gave me some much needed and appreciated insight into my H. I can see him not thinking, not moving, going along. As a matter or fact, he has said this to me on several occasions...
He always seems angry when the D issue comes up, and I never bring it up... but when he does he kind of screams it at me. Like he is afraid of that... but he does not seem to do ANYTHING to change what is going on... like you said, he goes with the flow.
So, what to do... work on me. Stay positive. Wait or don't.
Anyway, thank you for your honesty.
And Betsey... wow, I never had any idea about the statistics of parents divorcing over disabled kids... yikes. My brothers son is 9 and although his parents have different approaches, they love him just the same. Thank you for that insight. I will have to let my brother and SIL know how wonderful they both truly are.
Relax. Appreciate. Be calm. Laugh. Enjoy. Be secure. Be loving. Be loved. Don't personalize. Don't ASSume. Accept. Be grateful.
