I've had it!

I try my best to overcome the pain, to be fair to my family.

What am I getting in return.....?

Sweet Fanny Adams!

Once in a while, I start to cook a meal - as I did today - and then the pain overwhelms me and I can't carry on.

I tidy up, as best I can; put away the pots & pans I've used etc.

Then hubby comes in from work and carries on like I've left the whole house in a complete mess!

Fact is, I've actually gone beyond what I can tolerate in terms of pain, to make sure that he DOESN'T have a mess to cope with.

I'm now a wreck.

All he does, though, is to remark on the fact that I haven't brought in the few items of washing I hung on the line this morning.

Every time I think I've got him to an understanding of how bad my pain is and how much it hinders every aspect of my life, he finds a way to make me feel like I've let him - and our son - down.
