Doing well

Hello all,

I wanted to post a positive message even though the story behind it is absolutely horrible!

I was out of town over the holiday and my house was burglarized and my wife's care was stolen.

The truly stupendous thing that I want to say is that my wife is handling it great! I would say that she exhibits all the signs of a normal person would after the violation and that is healthy. It didn't send her into mania or deep depression. I am very very proud at how she has dealt with all of this and wanted to pass that on.

I'm so sorry to hear about the burglary, I am familiar with how that feels as we have been there ourselves. But it is great that your wife is handling it so good and I am happy for you that she is doing well.

So sorry about the burglary.....but knowing only too well how things like that (and less) affect my mum, it is fantastic that your wife didn't spiral one way or the other.

You are a fantastic, caring husband and thank you for sharing good news with us, even if it is linked to bad.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
