I am joining this site in hopes of learning how to help my mother be as happy and as healthy as she battles with Graves Disease. My mom moved in with my husband and I in May of this year, so that we could help her relieve the stress and trauma that Graves has caused. I love her more then anything and I just want to do the best I can to help her have healthier environment. We just want her to be happy and healthy.

I have just joined a few minutes ago. I found the site while researching Graves Rage and after reading what other Graves Suffers are going through …
Hi There,
Thank you so much for your support, advice and hugs!! Here is a hug back to you and a hope for sunny days in your future!
Big hugs!!

Glad to have you . Please come again to the coffee break. I add stuff almost daily. I will be putting more of my book on there. My goal in life now is to inform people with this condition and their families what to expect. I also want them to know you can adapt and live with this. It will not be easy for your mom and the rest of you. Just love her and be patient with her.
Hugs
I saw the lovely message you put under my "Book" post. As sd3764 said, our journey should not be as tough as it is. I truly believe with people like you, my husband and my kids who want to learn about this disease and want to know how to help us, this would not be so hard for us. Thank you. Come back for another coffee break. You need one to.
I understand about wanting to be there for your mother.....I also know how trying my times with Graves' were for myself and my family.....let's be friends!
What a selfless gesture on your part and what a fortunate mother you have!
I really don't believe the Graves' journey should be as tough as it has been for many of us. It seems so many doctors just don't "get it". I've found that, with this disease especially, it's important to be proactive. Please let me know if I can help in any way. :)
My Mother has had Graves for almost two years and she has recently moved in with me so that we can help her get through this. I am trying to learn more about what she is experiencing everyday, so that I can help and make this a bit easier for her. I want to understand more then the repeated information from the doctors.
