Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Hey again . After reading this letter I wanted to let you know that I am very proud of you. You did an awesome job today! Two hours of working out hard...that is something most of us could not do before the ra. (Myself included!) As far as your husband goes...you should make sure you read the letter I wrote about your brother. LOL That was a very insensitive thing for him to say. And NO you are not over reacting. You should not let his comments ruin your accomplishments. hugs and love wendy > 9:30....and my hubby has the nerve to say " Wow, I am surprised you > haved crashed out yet " ....and I am thinking to myself - " yay, that is > cool huh? " , but all I said was " I know " AND THEN he says " Oh poor > , had to be a Big Girl and put in a regular day like the rest of > us " > I was sooooooo mad. WTF????? that is not right.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 , No you are not. a [ ] Frusterated! Yesterday was the first day I felt good (most of the day) and actually put in a " normal " day. I went to school for 6 hours, the PT for 3 hours and worked out hard for 2 hours of it - and then had family issues to deal with after that. I am really feeling good now that I started the Enbrel. I left the house at 8am, and didn't get home(with no break in between) until almost 8pm. So I am getting ready to go to bed at around 9:30....and my hubby has the nerve to say " Wow, I am surprised you haved crashed out yet " ....and I am thinking to myself - " yay, that is cool huh? " , but all I said was " I know " AND THEN he says " Oh poor , had to be a Big Girl and put in a regular day like the rest of us " I was sooooooo mad. WTF????? that is not right. I ended up telling him to F*** off (out of complete frusteration), and went upstairs. Then I said I was mad when he came upstars, and now I am being " childish " , according to him! I talked to him about it this am, and I am " overreacting " of course. Here I am SO proud of my accomplishments...havn't worked out for 2 hours in over 5 years!, let alone on top of a full day, right? And my hubby had to take my glory away. Am I overreacting? Input appreciated. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Oh my, - you were NOT overreacting. Your husband was being a mean ugly toad! I am so happy for you that the Enbrel is making such a huge difference. Be careful not to overdo it all at once - I would imagine that flares are still possible, but I pray that is all behind you now. Rejoice in your new painfree life and good for you for telling him to f*** off!! Please remember that NO ONE can make you feel anything you don't want to feel. You are NOT being childish, you were NOT overreacting. Don't let him take your glory away. You deserve to celebrate!!!

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I too do not think you are overeacting. I am not sure if you read my post about my best friend or not " laughing at someone saying I should get the academy award for drama queen " but I still havent tt her...and she hasnt even bothered to call or email me. I think it is great that you are feeling good, keep on going and do not let anyone get you down. This disease or diseases we have are very hard for people on the outside to understand.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 , You are NOT being childish. I now he is your hubby but he was being a jerk. I think you did the right thing, except I would have thrown something at his head. Unbelievable. I am sorry you had to deal with that. I know I rejoice when I can get through a day and do things that are really pushing my limits. Good for you!!!

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 kelly and group Haaaaaa drama queen. My nephew said that to me. But not for the suffering. I am very emotional I guess. I took it as a compliment. You heard the squeaky wheel gets oiled. But my nephew loves me, I raised him. If someone not so close said it to me I may have got upset. Dont feel bad. We all have our drama time, its human nature. The ones saying it are usually quilty of it. Only they can make drama haaaaaa. So dont let it get you down. Take care. gently hugs Clora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 (Sorry that this reply is a month late!) What a jerk! If only he knew. Boy, I bet if he had the RA instead of you he'd be an even BIGGER baby. My husband is just like that too! No, you didn't overreact, I felt the same way when I read it. [ ] Frusterated!
