Thank you for posting this. My husband didn't have a choice-although I was dealing with terrible migraines when we first got married, I wasn't diagnosed until we had been married for over 6 years. He's definitely having a difficult time adjusting, as am I, to the new requirements of our homelife and our relationship is suffering quite a bit. I wish that neurologists (actually, all doctors) were able to point both people affected by MS to this site or to you; perhaps it would ease the transition. I have no idea if we are going to be strong enough to deal with MS-I know I have no choice but he does since it's not in him, just related by a piece of paper. It's really hard knowing that.
Hi Jake:
Ahh... the things we do for love. This is a great post - I surely hope others out there write to say what is happening to them as a caregiver. Or maybe those with MS should share this with their caregivers. It is awesome; they should know this is being written for them! I know it would make a difference for them.
Life is short and we never know what is gonna happen aroudn the corner. Thanks for helping me remember to appreciate what I have - even if there is sacrifice.
All the best, sue
