Same advice I gave to Red and Slice, don't let yourself or your wife be swallowed by depression. No matter how bad her illness gets, stay strong for each other. Most don't realize how lucky they are to have found love, so hold tight to it, and let it steer you through. I can't promise you things will get better, but I've never met a person who regretted having love in their life.

Honestly not a day goes by I don't check my attitude. You are right stinking thinkin gets you absolutely no where. Being fussy with the one who loves you is not good.
Being 100% positive is not realistic even for the "normals", not sick people.

So everyday I review the silver lining in my head.
1. Slice has built a business doing what he has alwAys wanted. When I lost my income, he started projects on the side and now is doing huge projects.
2. I have a 19 year old son who works with Slice, can operate any power tool, build stuff, putting himself through college, making A's, does his own laundry can cook
3. I have 15 year old son who tilled my garden, does his own laundry, cooks, cleans, and is so empathetic and caring.

Joe you live in Ga right? My doctor is Charles Adams at Full Circle Medical Alternative Medicine in Chattanooga TN - Charles C. Adams, MD
He has saved my life. Your wife's situation sounds a too familiar. I'm not saying she has Lyme, but he can certainly look into it. Also, he works miracles. It does require work on your part too. I have confidence he can help.
He is a molecular biologists and has been Internal med since the 80s. He added in alternative medicine about 15 years ago.
He listens to you. I am a nurse and it takes a lot for me to like doctors after working with the turds for 22 years. I have so much respect for him.

I know it must be so hard to be a man listening to your wife questioning death. I have gone to bed telling him if I don't wake up then....... He is such a doer and this is something he can't fix.

Thanks, I will tell my wife about him.

In today's world, too many let things like illness put a wedge in a relationship. I always say let it bring you closer together, not drive you apart. Live or die, love lingers on. You'll carry it with you forever, and always find comfort in it.

And I'm not trying to sound negative. Lord knows, I hope you find a cure to ease your pain. I was just making note that too many people in this world cut and run when they feel overwhelmed. While it's not great to hear you're suffering, it's great to hear that you and Slice(and really your whole family) have pulled together to fight through this. Many people would cut and run. I've known people like that. They were so afraid of getting hurt that they ran away. I feel sorry for people like that, because honestly, I think they'll always be haunted by regrets on what might have been. You never regret having loved too much. I hope what I'm trying to say makes sense, lol.

I think what I'm so confusedly trying to say is you and Slice are a great example of how a couple should pull together. A lot of couples don't do the same thing, and I think it leads to regret.

But if you tell Slice I said something nice about him, I'll deny it whole-heartedly.:p

I thought the vaccine didn't work? Or maybe it was just the early one that came out. I got it growing up as I was always in the woods.

Yeah, I wasn't clear with that. I meant that my vet was talking about the vaccine for dogs. The vaccine for people was definitely ineffective. I don't think they use it anymore.

A lot of folks don't understand how hard it is on the spouse of someone who is very sick. You feel guilty, angry, helpless, etc. However, you do what you can to help. I pray for Slice also, I know how hard it is.

I met Slice in 1986 when we were 17 years old. He is the love of my life. I am so grateful he is in my life.
I have seen others cut and run and it makes me sick to know someone who says they love you could leave you at your lowest moment and at a time of greatest need.

My son's have witnessed a real man. I hope when life hands them Lymes they make key lime pie and not cut and run.

Please don't tell Slice I said something nice about him either :)

I didn't write down the name of this daily wisdom book. Really wish I did so it would save me the unhappiness of having to look for it at a book store.

I have a coworker whose wife has been diagnosed with Lyme that has resulted in CRPS Type II due to the infection. Her CRPS is whole body and not localized like in most cases.

Off and on depression and blood vessel disease in my legs.

What kind of blood vessel disease? I used to be a Cath lab nurse and was on the peripheral vascular team.
Do you have a stent?
Vascular disease is painful. I'm sure you have claudication which limits you.

A Nurse practitioner told me in 2007 that I had arterial disease in my lower legs. My lower left leg has dark blotches and not much hair and it's pretty much the same on my lower right leg.

That's more likely copperous water poisoning caused from prolonged exposure to copper basin (who will go 7-3 and make the playoffs in 2015, so I've heard)

I didn't get the wanted book renewed from the library on Friday so I'll have to pay a 50 cent fine.
