I don't post in the pub much, usually only football and around the NCAA. I'm not much of one to really talk about very personal things to people, just kind of hide my feelings. Here's my dilemma, my wife is sick, and getting bad. She has systemic lupus, her immune system attacks her organs and she's one if the rare, bad cases. We have 3 kids 2 of them young (9,6) and we don't go into detail with them about how bad it is. Already tried chemo twice, they've watched mom my lose her hair and such. I over heard my youngest ask her older sister during a recent hospital stay, "what if mommy dies this time". I've cried for several days over thus, and wondering if I should talk to them about how bad things are. I'm a christian and I pray, and please no shots at "why would God....." I'm not the going to a psychologist type. Just wondered if any of you have ever faced such a problem. I know none of you know me (did meet some cool vol fans in panama fl during labor day about 5 years ago!) But if you have been there I would appreciate what worked for you. Sorry so long, and if this is in the wrong spot mods.
