My thanks to all who read and responded to my posts. My W actually suggested a bath last night. We had a convo there about various topics. My W voluntered that at a routine doctor's check she balked at a certain medication, because "it would destroy what little SD I still have." There's hope-she at least acknowledges that she is LD and I am not entirely satisfied (understatements, I know). Suggestions, on how I can gently convince her to read SSM and/or Dr. Laura's Care and Feeding of Husbands ? As she acknowledges a problem, the next step can commence.
