It's been a very interesting week with lots of ups and downs...the two weeks before were DOWNS, so the ups have been a nice change. I have a PM apt tomorrow for trigger point injections and my sister is going to take me for a change. I've also been "commanded" to go back to the same PM the next day with my step-father for his apt because he doesn't understand exactly what they are talking about
.....for those who have been a part of my last month, you can understand why this is such an unpleasant experience, but I will go to keep the peace with my mother (who I love so dearly).
Also, for those who don't know my story, I had a major issue at home somewhere around two weeks ago now. To my great surprise and by the grace of God, my hubby has stopped drinking.....It's been over a week since he had a drink!!!! I know this is a very small step, but for him it is a giant step and one I have prayed for for many, many years.
He actually threw away all the alcohol in the house (and the hidden stuff) and admitted to me yesterday that he had one of the worst weekends he can remember because he had not cut grass in 31 years when he had not been drinking (and he is only 42). Just the sharing is amazing and a gift from God. He went to see a real, honest to goodness psych DR twice now and is getting treatment for his alcoholism. It is a blessing that I never though would happen. He has appointments set up for every three weeks and is taking his medications religiously. I am doing for him exactly what the Dr requests (but not forgetting myself and my daughter in the process). We are both going to my psych....the two Dr's are partners, but do not share cases (it is a very private place and they will throw your butt out in a split second if you don't abide by the plan). I'm so proud of him. A few weeks ago, divorce was the only option, but now I have God on my side. I don't know what the future brings, but I know what I am willing to accept and what I will not accpt. It feels very, very good to know that and to accept it.
I have rambled on again (as usual)...sorry 
.
If you pray, please pray for my family in all ways. If you don't, then please don't be offended that I asked on such a public forum. You guys have become family to me and I wish you all well during the coming week....Just for added help....a little prayer regarding my meds being upped to a useful level for pain control and a little less pain with the trigger point injections tomorrow would also be great.
Thanks guys for everything!!!!!
