I want to share alittle story with you all about my relationship to

let you know not all men are not bad and can accept whats going on

with you.

I guess I was lucky when it came to my husband understanding I

hurt,He doesn't understand why fibro acts this way though (but who

really does?). The job he had for many years he gave up on because it

took him out of state alot, a matter of fact in 2006 he was gone from

Jan. - Sept. helping with the clean-up of Katrina. Every day he would

call me just to see how the children and I were, when he came home in

Sept. we sat down and talked and he decided (all by hisself) that his

work was taking him away and that he need to be home to help me out.

He changes jobs about three times before he found one that he really

liked and that would suport all of us (since I wasn't working), it

was similar work to what he was doing but he would stay in town. He

started this job at the end of March this year and now he is out of

work do to his stroke. My turn to be understanding and caring.

I love my husband for so many reason, 1st one is he married me

knowing I had 4 kids and just got out of a absusive marriage. 2nd. He

has always been there for me no matter what. The funny thing is I met

him along time ago (when I was 17 yrs. old) and we ran into each

other when I was going through my divorce and he waited for the

divorce to be final before asking me out. Same year we got married

and a year later we had our daughter (shes now 8 yrs old). The really

nice thing is he treat all five children the same and as far as he is

concerned they are all his and no one can tell him different.

So they days I get depressed and mad (down right angry) I try and

think about all the good and sometime it helps ease the pain or at

least bring a smile to my face.

((((HUGS EVERYONE))))
