Re: I can't take this pain anymore..../reply from Ethel

[Guest guest]

Debra ,usually i would just send back a reply and not keep the orginial but

ithink we need it in here, first , please no alachol , been there ,done that

,

2.do you really want to drink and drive to get your son from work ,

3. go to the doctor and get pain meds ,even if it just dulls the pain , if

the weather was nice enough to play football for them , just sit on the

porch and watch , atleast you are there to laugh at their mistakes , the

more you stress about being in the worse you will feel ,

stay with us and let us help you , talk all you want we can listen and give

you HELP!

the alachol will feel good for awhile ,but then it just drinking for the

sake of drinking and using it is just an excuse , yes i know your pain ,

instead of sitting inside go to the bath room light candles get in the very

warm bath ,and as for your hubbie , many of a relationship has suffered and

survived this disease , if he can not get it through his head , have your

doctor take your licence for pain and fibro pain ,then he will wake up no

one to do what he should do hisself , do you reallt want your son to see and

smell drink on you , kids just hate it worse when it`s MOM ,trust me i know

,talk to me darlin` stay here and go to doctor , once they tkae your licence

they tkae insurance , ask hubbie if he really wants your Dr. to do that ,
