It's very sad that some people are so cold & insensitive. At least

you have a wonderful hubby, and you don't have to listen to parents

all the time. Truth is, they would not know how to handle it.

with RA and is incredibly understanding. He cooks, cleans, walks the

dog, cuts my food if needed. I wish I could clone him for you!

> However, my parents and grandma were never understanding

about my RA. I was dx'd in PA while at college and my family is in

NYC. My dad's way of dealing with uncomfortable things is to make fun

of them. When I was swollen from 80 mg/day of prednisone, he told me

to walk around the block to lose weight.

home for 6 months since I was still under my parents' health

insurance.

> Recently, my mom has been much more understanding,

especially after she was dx'd with COPD 2 years ago. She is on the

lung transplant list.
