Guest guest Posted August 1, 2003 Report Share Posted August 1, 2003 I certainly understand your situation. I don't have children at home but I can sure relate to the extreme fatigue. My husband is much like yours, I think he thinks if we don't talk about it that it might go away. We never discuss it, and we have been married 49 years, its always been that way. I also have 2 married daughters and 5 very dear grandchildren. Occasionally they will ask me about it but not often. I am like you if I didn't have this group I don't feel like I would have anyone to share my feelings of frustration. I have rheumatoid arthritis very bad, my hands hurt constantly so he does run the sweeper for me which helps and does all the outside work. He puts out a big vegetable garden which is very hard for me to take care of when its ready. He is in good health so its hard for him to understand. I am like you not only the arthritis makes me tired but also the PSC. I envy people who have an understanding relationship with their spouse, its just hard to understand if it doesn't effect you directly, and also having a husband to go to the Dr. with you would be nice. We all understand, thank goodness for this group. Martha from Mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
