It saddens me that my DH is along for the ride...he deserves a hot chick on his arm, not an overweight woman limping like his dad...

It is very difficult indeed. I try not to go there as much as possible. When I do, I just get more depressed and am making the days ahead, that have not yet happened, already here. My husband came over as I was doing some cleanup after lunch today (unable to make the nice lunch and dinners I once made) and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I know in his way, he was saying "thank you".
I still do the laundry and try to smile and give his life some enjoyment. Of course, I can't always be that way; but it does help to get myself off the "pitty pot" at least for a little while and see the smile on his face.
