I'll never learn

I'm glad he's coming around.  Just try to remember that this disease is so frustrating, I can't even put it into words, more times then not I can't even explain to myself how I feel, much less another person.  Please don't get me wrong, I love my mother more then words can say, and I am sooo greatful for everything she has done for me...I'm just happy that she respects my wishes when I'm sick.

Just a thought...

When I'm not doing ok, it's very difficult to hear "Are you ok?" knowing that I'm going to answer "No" and then have to explain in what possible way I'm felling bad. And, by experience, also knowing that they can't do anything about it.

Well... in time, I had to learn how to deal with it. Realized that people close to us, in their love, get hurt when I "hide" simptoms. Learned to present a "report" (maybe you can negociate that!). Although I'm a little older (over 30), I'm still learning, but we do get some experience in the "non intentional" hurting business (both sides).
