Hi Jenna,
My thoughts are with you, I can't imagine the pain you must be in when even a touch of your skin hurts like crazy, it must be terribly difficult at every level, even to give your two little ones a hug!
I hope ou're exams go well and you get through them as painless as possible - take your meds it'll help you think better!
Tom is right I never looked at intimacy that way either.
Take care hun,
Sinéad
