dx-cirrhosis: scared and reeling

Emma, it is good he can work. My hubby hasn't worked regularly in years....too too tired. He has been taking a bed nap every day for maybe 5 years. He worked evenings for a while, but even that got to be too much. He can't even golf now, which bothers him more than the not driving. It is a blessing I have retirement $$$ to keep us afloat for a while.

Many hugs,
Mama Lama

Diane-how long ago was Dave diagnosed with cirrhosis? I am looking for examples of folks that are living with this...as a chronic condition...not dying from it. That is where my fear has taken me. I am just thinking about horrible complications and death and oh my, I feel like I am drowning in fear. I know that I need to get to a place where I see this as a chronic condition that will have ups and downs and that things can be managed. Just too new to it and still so sad and upset. I know I will get there, just don't think it will be today. So..........I am looking for examples of good outcomes.

Thanks to everyone...all your responses are so very appreciated.

Emma
