Hi Ellie I've seen you post all over the BB, but it occurred to me that I havent read your thread but a couple of times over the last year. I think you were sending your S off to college the last time maybe? I guess I've assumed your an old timer who has it all figured out, and were just posting to keep up with your friends here. Shame on me! We have some issues in common. Depressed H.. I have a D12 on Anti-D's also and I struggle with my H's moods too. And, our darling first born is a Jr. in college. That's been an adjustment!
It has been a challenge this weekend and reading your first post makes me feel better. We also need to start MC and I've put it off fearing it will stir up more than I can handle.. but I KNOW we need to be doing it. I thought maybe things need to be a little more stable before we shake things up. We also struggle with affection and rejection issues. It's been better lately, but if H gets in a "mood", that sets the stage for distance between us. I need to remember that his moods arent about me.. hard isnt it?
Anyway, I'm going to try to catch up on your threads a little. I'm sure there is wisdom there I could benefit from. I'm over in I Need Support for My Marital Problems. I didnt get many posting to me when I was in Piecing before, but I've moved past feeling sorry for myself and am determined to be proactive. Maybe this time around will be better.
LNL - The range is huge. In the States, where people have access to all the new drugs, there are some people who were quite sick earlier who are doing well now, 20 years later. (Although, lest anyone out there think this is a reason to be less than careful, quality of life on all those drugs is not always that great - plus not everyone does that great.)
There's also a very very tiny minority of people who get infected but don't get sick - has something to do with the genetics of the surface proteins on their cells.
Do you ladies mind if I join you? My PMA is in the dumps lately. Slowly.. I was thinking about you the other day and the incredible patience you've shown (you too Ellie!) throughout your journey. I miss your posts!
Hi all - sorry I haven't been posting, got back from my trip and had a million and one things to do (including surgery to arrange for the dog's ear) and am leaving tomorrow for family ski trip. I'll be back next week.
Hi all! I'm snowed in in Denver - hanging with BIL and SIL, whose plans for Xmas in New York also got scotched by the storm. Hoping to fly home tomorrow night, meanwhile baking cookies and enjoying the beautiful scenery. (Sorry, Betsey, wasn't expecting to be in Denver at all or I would have tried to connect with you!).
