Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 J, You probably don't feel too reassured right now, but his response really was as good a sign as you're going to get from your hubby. I'm confident he will come around when he sees you feeling better! . . . And you will! He sounds like the kind of guy who needs to see it to believe it! He's a lot better than some of the hubbies we see! They are long gone! After you start feeling better, he'll see doctors in a whole new light!

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Oh Jackie, I know exactly what you are talking about! My dear Mark went through the same questions. He was so tired of me being sick all those months, but he just wanted to listen to the doctors, even after I told him that they were wrong. Right before I was went in to have them removed, we began counceling. I found that this helped tremendously, and we are still going almost 3 months after explant. It made me feel so good last month when the councilor asked him what he thought now that I have had the implants removed and am better and able to once again work full time, climb stairs, make love without saying ouch, bounce out of bed in the morning, etc. He said it was wonderful to have his wife back again, and he respected the fact that I didn't listen to the doctors, but stepped out and did what I thought was right for me...... you can imagine how hard it was not to bust out of my skin with happiness. Follow your heart, the counceling of these wonderful women who have traveled your path, and rely on the Lord to give you a peace about it, even though others around you may not.
