You know, I am blessed with some great friends. The only other people besides my special on line buddies ( who read my blog faithfully) that know what I'm going through are my son David and my friend Joyce. David was informed only as if something goes wrong he needs to know. Joyce knows as it's hard to hide it from a friend that sees you daily and can't help but notice that you can't walk as well, can't get up after sitting and can't get in and out of your car.

Jim and I have been living in close quarters (RV) so bit by bit he could see what was happening. It's been a gradual thing starting in the last two years, coming and going. A lot of it was when Jim wasn't at home and I think he thought I was embellishing my tales. Now, he has seen first hand what has been happening and has listened to the Doctors  prognosis. He has been a dear and we've been thinking ahead as to things that will make my life easier. Hopefully those plans will not be needed, at least most of them.

I feel bad mostly for him , as I feel he didn't sign up for this and I think he would be better off without the burden of having a handicapped wife. But as usual Scarlett tells me tomorrow is another day and who knows what miracles can happen. I'm giving some over the counter medication a shot. Glucosimine and Chondroitin for one. I started the liquid supplements last night and I thought I felt better this AM. LOL Unhappily as soon as I got home just from sitting  at the cafe and riding in the car I was back to point A but we will carry one. It has a terrible lingering taste..yuko so after this week I'll switch to the pill form.

Thanks girls for the hugs and thoughts they really help. During my life I've gone through a lot...most of it mental hardship and this is just another step in life. I'm a survivor and I'll fight Arthur too. I'm too fiesty not too. LOL

Now if I can sit a bit tonight I'll do some scrapping.  Last night I was searching for tubes to add to PSP hoping to find the CU ones but most were only for personal use so I didn't bother with them. I have enough on my ind with out goofing up and using the wrong ones in my kits. I'm still not happy with my extractions and keep looking for ways to do clean ones. I've been getting some cool holiday ideas from Martha Stewarts site and BHG to use in the house and for elements. I still have to finish up Rennys kit. Hopefully by this weekend I'll have that and can start on some new things.

I believe it went something like "for better or worse, in sickness and health". You have a wonderful hubby who will always be there.
