My husband was diagnosed with MS officially last August. but looking back we can see where he has had episodes for years before that. I to am struggling with my vows. the in sickness and health thing sucks. I know that his body has the MS and it is not the real him. I tell myself daily that things are OK, and that we will make it. I am Drowning in this whole situation. I wish he wasn't affected cognitively. that is definitely the worst. You can have a conversation and then 10 minutes later it is gone. he was such a strong person, my protector and safe harbor. slowly he is slipping away, It hurts to see him struggle to do the smallest task. like putting on his socks. or walk from the living room to the bath, or bed. I told a friend the other day that i have come to HATE MS. I am not one to say that lightly either.
overall the show was good.
Koiyen,
I'm so sorry. I know your husband having MS is hard on both of you. Have you considered getting into a caregiver support group? There are many within the MS forums on the internet. Is your husband on one of the injectible drugs? How about Aricept for his cognitive difficulties? Please know that there are folks who care about what you're going through. I am one of them.......God bless you for all you do for your husband. You're an angel here on Earth.
