Am I glad you checked in,I have to have my eye's done,my brother just
told me one at a time..I am getting that broken nose fixed as well..As for
that chair I always end up sleeping in mine and can't get up in the morning.
I really don't want to do this but tired,of looking at my drop lids.And at least
I know it's a broken nose and not a brain tumor..Hugs to you all seems like
oh times day.Sue

I have trained them!
Husbands in particular are often the most recalictrant of creatures. Sigh.
Sure sounds like you've to the back up on your side to make life more tolerable tho! Bravo good lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
's and all plus some fuzzies too! - j


PS That wasn't a 'tattle'...That was a statement of fact that others sussed out as well! Feel absolutely NO GUILT about it!

OOH tho? Watch out for 'lost' magnets tho...they could disappear ya know? And you will know by who [or is it whom? does it matter?]

Reading this is like reading a Melody's hubby story!

But what amazes me, Billye, is that a year ago I can't imagine you being physically capable of doing this. As much pain as you are in these days, the recovery, as seen from this, is remarkable.

He's a lucky man, that guy who wouldn't buy the laptop! Yes, I do know he is a darling.....and he takes good care of you when you need caring for.

I have a tad of envy of you married folk; life is certainly easier when you have another sentient mammal to share it with!

Sentient mammals!!!!

I LOVE THAT EXPRESSION!!!

I'm going to go call Alan a Sentient Mammal right now. Let's see what he says:

lol lol lol

I walk over to him while he's watching tv. It's a commercial. I say to him "Alan, do you know that you are a sentient mammal??

He removes his headphones and says: "I'm a What???"

I said again "you are a sentient mammal".

He says: "WHY??"

I said "no, not why, this is what you are, you are a sentient mammal, don't you know what a sentient mammal is??"

He says: "I have no idea what you are talking about, I'm watching LAW AND ORDER".


LOL LOL LOL

yep I miss putting goop in my husbands eye,well not that...But when
our men are sick or have sore eyes.Billye I to admire you your one
strong woman and your story was so funny.. Hugs Sue LJ it was nice
to see your feet pop up..

Good to hear at least the surgery is over - but sorry you now have such a difficult patient! (and kudos to your patience!) Involving the nurse sounds like a great idea - men can be just a "tad" difficult about being sick eh... Just be sure to take care of yourself too - as mentioned you are doing really well right now it seems and you dont want to compromise that!

Take care of both of you

Having an RN manager for a S.O. is quite demanding.
When I complain about not feeling well (other than PN)
she says 'go to the doc's'.
Get an Rx.
Period.
That's it!
I think I've reverse trained her, too well.
she leaves me alone all the time now.

I would be lost without the support of my wife. Learning I have PN and the fact that there is no cure was very difficult. She has been very patient and helpful. I hope I can be the same for her if and when the need arises.

yada yada yada

Melody, I was feeling way down today. Checked this thread, read some of your postings.....I'm feeling better. You have such a wonderful attitude....thank you for being here!
