Hi, fellow wifey of a PCS person. I'm first of all so sorry that you're having to deal with this. It is DEFINITELY NOT easy. You're definitely not alone. What started out with what I thought was going to be the after effects of a car accident my hubs was in, has become one very long BAD day...and I wish I had some sort of "help" that would fix this for you, but all I can say is....the same thing my hubs has been told about how to deal with PCS....try to relax. Try not to focus about what sucks about the situation, cause that really only makes it suck more. lol....we are still dealing with this, but now we sort of joke about it...even the really horrible parts of it...cause literally, i think if we didn't, we'd not only have PCS as a problem, but we'd become mental patients too. I've been through every emotion with dealing with this with my husband.... Most of our convos begin with "Psttttt," and end with "Shhhh," haha. Not that the situation is funny, because it really isn't. I've told my fb friends that they're gonna have to put me in a special jacket in a padded room if this stuff doesn't end soon, but honestly....all I can do, is hope and pray. My prayer is that it's over soon, but God's will be done. My hope is that some day soon we'll be able to have a "normal life" (whatever that is)...so I think we just deal with "the new normal," each day, take each day for what it's worth. Some are decent, some really stink, but nevertheless, I think it's all a learning game. honestly, they don't really let you minister on here, but my faith and the Lord are the only thing that's gotten me through...I've screamed, I've wanted to pull my hair out, I've cried, and cried, and snotted some more....but laughing through it, taking one day at a time, and being thankful for whatever progress is made, is about all I know to say. anyhow....not sure that we have msg "privaleges" yet, but feel free to contact me....maybe we can encourage each other.

this too shall pass....

confusion, dizziness, depression and pressure in his head.
Even more frustrating, his parents seem to think I am making this
up and I am the one provoking his anger! A neuro, and a family doc. have both
verified he suffers from this but have not given us much info, about what
to do or how to deal with it. It has been a long 8 months and only God has brought us through this far. Please help?
