About Me
Hairdresser disabled due to Fibro..lost husband to heart attack in June '07. Struggled until I found DS. Wouldn't of made if I hadn't..!! Lost 3 significant people in my life...all within 5 months of each other. Been a member for over 2 yrs now. One year ago I met a wonderful man from Wis. He has given me hope...once again...that life DOES go on. FINALLY able to LAUGH again....never thought I would EVER find love again after I lost my Pat...but it happened. Now I am facing yet another hardship....HE has had a stroke. It should of killed him. God, fast thinking, quick moving, & wonderful health care saved his life. Now I am picking up the pieces once again....just living this drama I call "my life". I feel like I have a second chance at everything. I COULD NOT save Pat....I lost him so quickly. But I WAS able to help Harry. Now, I spend everyday of my life helping him. And he is responding...HE is being so positive about everything. It gives me great hope once again. I may NEVER get over losing Pat. But somehow I feel that he is making it up to me by sending me Harry. Sounds odd...I know. But if only you knew the details of HOW we met....you'd understand. I may get strong from time to time...I may stray from DS....but, I will NEVER leave it...never leave the great friends that have helped me survive that horrible dreaded 1st year.....

OMG, Jeanne, I am so sorry to hear the news. He was so lucky that you were there. Bruce had a major stroke when he was 28. That was a few years before we met. His family said he had to learn how to talk again. He had 2 more mild strokes in the 9yrs we were together. He came through very well and lived a very active life after.His only side affects was word association. He would call a table a book and would get so pissed because he knew he was saying the wrong word but couldnt think of the right word. I was there during one of them and god it was scary. He complained of a nagging headache and then just zoned out and started making grunting noises. When he snapped out of it he was paralyzed on one side. Thank god that only lasted a couple of hours. The drs, said a smaller artery took over for the one that burst. Please make sure Harry does what the drs. tell him to do. Bruce didnt and look where he is today. My thoughts are with you. Luv and hugs, Lori
I’m With You
I haven't been on in quite awhile, and apparently I was meant to read your entry tonight...am going through something similar myself. My friend, I hurt for you - and also envy you....You are in love again! (and all that that entails...) My "friend" has been pushing me away as fast and as hard as he can...I am not in love - but was enjoying the closeness and companionship - and now the darkness and loneliness are back...it may not help, but my advice is to continue to enjoy what you have and let it develop in its own time. But, perhaps, that's my own wishful thinking...I know that whatever you decide will be the right thing - as you are a strong, beautiful woman who deserves to be loved by a good man - again. Don't ever doubt that - you are in my heart...Susan

Support Groups
Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Partner/SpouseI faced the loss of many people I loved in '07. The most was the love of my life, Pat. He was a great friend to everyone he met,a biker who I always called "a little rough around the edges", and a Christian. He left a hole in our lives that will never be filled. I have alot of friends who mean well but none of them know what I'm really going thru. God bless em!! I've tried really hard to keep life as normal as possible for all the kids & myself. They say life goes on..I don't know how.
Treatments
