Barbara,

I am so sorry you are having to go through all of this. I was hoping that

things would turn around for you , but you'll get through this. You are a

strong woman. I'm glad you have family around you at home and on here.

Big monster hugs for you...

Heidi in Mass.

Had my checkup with my Rheumy yesterday, and my RA is doing good. I

have been on the Pred. dose of 10 mg. a day since my flare in Aug. I

will now reduce that dose, and go back to 5 mg. a day. I hope I will be

successful.

I will see the Ortho. Dr. Thurs., and hope I can have the cast of my

left foot. I also hope the xrays of my foot and shoulder are good. I

hope he lets me drive, as I need to go out and buy a car.

I see Clora is up all night tonight too. Hate these sleepless nights.

Wishing everyone pain free days, and God Bless you all.

Barbara,

I just hate it for you. You expect that when you get to this stage

in life, things to be very different! Also think you know someone

after years of marriage and then realize you don't.

I still have you on my prayer list. I know some of how hard it is. I

was married over 17 years, but not as long as you have been. Coming

to grips with the fact that what you are and have been all of these

years does not matter when your spouse is only interested in their

own happiness. They never realize just how cruel their actions are

to you.

You will survive. It won't be easy, but I know that you are strong.

You have proven that. I have read your post and seen how positive

and strong that you can be. Hang in there Honey, it will get better.

I know the holidays coming up will be hard, but they will pass and

you will be stronger for getting over another hurdle.

When you need a boost, let us know. We not only care about your

health but also about you as a whole. I am here for you! Email me if

you need another friend or someone to listen. I will gladly give you

my phone number if you would like it.

I ask that you have a bless day.

Shirley

Barbara,

I'm so sorry that you continue to suffer because of your husband. Have

you gone to see a counselor of some type? Sometimes it helps to talk

about everything that's going on with a neutral party.

I hope that you are going to be OK.

I don't always get time to read so I don't know your entire story but

I wanted to say that I am sorry you are going through this. I think

people get so selfish and don't understand what it is like to have a

chronic condition. I do feel what goes around comes around and

someday he will probably realize he made a bad decision and regret

how he treated you. I hope things get better for you and this group

is here too.

Barbara and group;

 

Barbara my heart goes out to you.  I know while you was waiting for him every

minute seem to go backwards.  I think what he is doing to you is cruel.  I am

sorry it's just how I feel. My first husband was that way to me. 

 

I believe what Shirley said to you is so true.  You are strong and you will

survive.  I think of the song, I will survive by Gloria Gainer.  I loved that

song.  My second husband beat me and I was in a shelter when it came out.  I

divorced him went to college and got through it.  I know your a survivor

Barbara.  Hang on sweety.  You are very special. 

 

gentle hugs

Clora

Hi Barbara

I'm so sorry to hear that things are still not going well at home. I'm thinking

of you - things will get better even though I'm sure that it doesn't seem that

way right now.

Great to hear that your RA is improving and that you can cut back on the pred;

on 10 mg a day I become hyper and an obsessive chocolate eater You may find

you sleep better once you have cut back too.

Any way, I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you; email me any

time you like if you want a chat.

Hugs from

Hi Elaine:

Thanks for your kind words and support. It means a lot to me.

Life throws us so many curves, you just never know what is around the

corner. I am just taking things slow, and trying to keep my wits about

Wishing you pain free days, and God Bless you.

To Clora, , , & Shirley:

I can't tell you how much all your posts mean to me. It made my heart

sing to think I am important to all of you. You all know how I feel

about everyone here. This is the best group of people in the whole

world.

I like to think of myself as strong, but some days I am not. I do try to

stay positive, and know eventaully my life will settle down. Right now

things are topsy turvey.

He will not go to see our priest, or do any counceling. He has made up

his mind to leave, and get a divorce. I will seek counceling when I get

my own car, hopefully next week. I am waiting for an attorney to call

me this afternoon, as I need an appt. very soon.

My husband has said many times he will probably regret all this, but he

is still going forward with his plans. I know you can't keep a person

once they make up their mind to leave. Who would really want anyone who

doesn't want them.

I will continue to take one day at a time, as I have always done. I

know I have to protect myself and look out for my future. Who knows

what that will be, ha ha ha.

I love that song Clora, it always makes me smile when I hear it.

You are all such sweet, beautiful, caring, people, and I just love you

all so much. You are so kind to me.

Wishing everyone pain free days, and may God Bless all of you. You are

the best!!!!!! I think of allof you so often.

Heidi, thanks for the huge hugs. Your posts always make me smile.

Hugs to all,

Barbara

Hi Barbara,

That's horrible your husband still wants to divorce you. I know you

probably still love him but should try to let him go. If he did

decide to stay with you he probably still will no stay true. Hope

you can get you a car to see your priest and attorney. Will keep you

in my thoughts and prayers.

soft hugs,

Debbie L

BArbara,

I am sorry you are having to go through this. I wish there was something I

can't but the one thing I can do is keep you in my prayers and that I will

do.

Dear Barbara - I sent you a private email, but just had to reply to

this post. You ARE important. You ARE special. You ARE worthy. Don't

you let anyone tell you anything different. You know we all will " reap

what we sow " . So, don't you dare let him ruin you. Stand tall - don't

you fall - (a bad 70's song by Burton Cummings). Check out this video

I found on YouTube:

Wow!

70's flashback! But, basically the point I am trying to get across

here is to stand tall and strong in your faith. You know the Rock that

I'm talking about. THAT Rock will see you through this. And Burton

Cumming's songs will continue to haunt the hallways of lost fame

forever *lol*.

Anyway - You are loved dear lady. And we're all here to support you

through this all. I'm singing **PRAISES** over the progress you are

making physically. Take Care. God Bless. And be kind to Barbara - you

are dear to us all.............Doreen

Barbara and group;

Your very welcome Barbara. We are here for each other. When I first

came on everyone was so helpful. I think of how you talked to me and

soothed me as I told how much pain I was in. You got so upset my

rheumy was letting me suffer. You told me to tell her how bad I

feel. I did tell her and she finally got agressive with my RA.

Because of you I told my rheumy I hurt so bad all the time. Now I

feel so much better for that. I started humira injections while you

was on your vacation. I woke up the next morning could get out of

bed so easy since the injection took away much of my pain. I wanted

to share this with you so much, you was out on vacation at the

time. We didnt know you had fallen that time but soon learn later of

your accident.

So Barbara we care for you and don't like to see you suffer. You're

a kind and wonderful person. Like the other post said I read, let

me say it too. Stand strong, You're special, you can get through

this, We need your strength as much as you need ours, and together

we can make it, we can survive. God bless you're in my prayers.

gentle hugs

Clora

Hi Clora: You sent me the most beautiful, loving, and caring letter. I

thank you so much for your kind words, and loving support.

I am so happy for you that Humira is working well for you. I know your

last year was hell on earth with all your pain and suffering. How

wonderful to find a med. that you can tolerate, and makes you feel so

good each day. !!!!!

I am getting through everyday as best I can. Yesterday was a " crying "

day for me......... this is all so sad. I just asked my husband to

really think about our marriage, as 27 years is a long time to just toss

it away. Try to really think about everything before it's all over.

After all, this is our marriage, and it is just about the two of us.

I feel better today, and will do the things I planned to do today. I

feel better when I have my house in order, the laundry done, etc.

Saw my Osteo. Dr. yesterday. Both breaks are doing wonderful. I will

continue my P.T. 3x a week on my shoulder until my visit with him next

month. He told me to take off the cast off my foot everyday, put on my

shoe, and if it hurts, put the cast back on. Do this until I can wear

my shoe everyday without pain. I will start doing this today.

I am glad I am doing so good with all this, and it will be wonderful

when I am totally healed. I thank God that I am a good healer.....it

makes quite a difference in your recovery.

My RA is good, no pain anywhere. I am at the max for all RA meds., so I

hope this continues for a long time. My last flare in August was the

worst one yet. Florida weather is so much better for me. I am glad we

moved here 4 years ago.

Wishing you pain free days, and may God Bless you always. You are a

beautiful, loving, caring person. Your posts are always full of love,

comfort, and caring advice. Have a wonderul day, and talk soon.

Hugs to all,

Barbara
