Feel the need…

I truely understand your problem. I have been a stay at home mom of 2 little girls and in 3/06 had a paralizing case of gbs. The understanding and help was there for me for awhile, but it didn’t take long for most to forget what you were just through and how it still effects you everyday. My husband tries to be understanding and helpful but often forgets why he needs to be. We will have our fights when the laundry piles up or the house is a mess because I just can’t get up and do it for days at a time sometimes. I try to be patient an understand that even with all he has read and seen he (with the grace of god) will never fully understand how true disabling this can be. But I have found that being very up front and firm about how I feel on a daily basis may not make him understand but it make me feel better just to say it to him and say it loud and clear, “No I am not feeling well and you will just have to deal with it!” Hope the days get easier.:D
