Hello all! I was wondering how you deal with family members that are bitter about your illness? I have always been the caregiver for my family - dad had a stroke, mom has a mental illness, gram had a heart transplant, etc, - but since my illness, it seems that my family (some members) actually RESENT my being ill!
They can't seem to get it through their thick skulls that I cannot do everything I did before......it is so darn frustrating!!! Some family members call this my "lazy bone" disease or tell me to "suck it up" - AUGH!!!!! If any of you do have this problem, how do YOU handle it? Thanks for your help! Erin
