UPDATE ON DANSK

by Physio in

friends

it's been a long time since i posted here but i often read your messages when ian (dansk) logs on.

as most of you will know, ian will be going back into hospital on monday for an allogeneic stem cell transplant and will be away from the forum for a good few weeks (hopefully he'll be back home within 4-6 weeks).

last time he was in hospital many of you sent messages to his ward and i know they cheered him up immensely.

Snoozy

Aw Claire..it must be breaking your heart to see Ian going through so much. You get such a helpless feeling when you can't do anything to make them more comfortable don't you?. I would have done anything to help my hubby when he was so sick..and I could do nothing..I felt so helpless.

I knew he wasn't a complainer and my heart hurt so bad for him.

Please tell Ian we are all thinking of him and wish him the best! My heart also goes out to you. You must be exhausted with all the worrying .

We love you both so much and wish we could be there with you, but know we are with you in spirit.

Big hugs and I will even say a prayer for you two. Something I have started to do again in the last year.

HELP - my boyfriend's ex called and wants them to reconcile....what to do?

by Juniper in

i've been seeing an amazing man for a few months now.

i recently found out that before we met, my boyfriend had been thinking about getting back together with his ex-girlfriend.

(who is going through a divorce of her own right now) they have a two year old son together.. he says that if his child weren't involved, he wouldn't even consider going back to her.

Snoozy

I didn't read all the answers but it sounds to me like he needs a "Time Out".

Usually when someone has a big decision to make they should get away from both parties and straighten out their brain.That way they will be responsible for any decision they make.They also won't be influenced by either party.

If his X is just getting out of a relationship she also needs some time to clear her head. It sounds like she just wants someone with her and he is the lesser of two evils right now. She didn't want him before..why should things have changed that much with her? Hopefully he will think things out and realize he shouldn't act hastily. It doesn't sound like his X is thinking too clearly now either. She needs to take some time and think out just what she really wants...after all..she has failed twice so far..He better look before he leaps..thing is you don't want to push him either way..Why not suggest he take some time alone to think about it.

Animal's trip 07

i put the pics from our trip last week up temporarily.

i will be making a better page when i find some more time.. we left phoenix early, when it was only 95 degrees.... went the back roads to and thru new mexico... then up into colorado.

we lost the back brake on the harely the first day and never did fix them... harley dealers suck and won't put you in front of the line for service.

Snoozy

Thanks for sharing Animal..brings back a lot of memories..we got to Sturgis one time right after the run..missed all the bikers..

I remember thinking when we first saw the mountains in Colorado.."I thought they would be bigger"!.

Then we got in them and our little Rambler station wagon barely made it up the mountain!..I was afraid I was going to have to get out and push..

Sure is pretty scenery isn't it.

Snoozy..looking forward to more pictures..

My Husband is Lost to THEM

by Mrs. Witness in

i need some support, some suggestions, and perhaps a gut-check.

my husband was baptized in march.

he was raised from the time he was about 7 until his mom kicked him out at 15 (wasn't she loving?

Snoozy

I am so sorry you are going through this.My hubby's family are witnesses and his Mom had such a strong hold on him.She could do no wrong. He would believe anything she said as gospel and always tried to please her (which wasn't easy).We all became witnesses later in our marriage but after 15 years of going alone with the kids I quit. Close to retirement he decided to go back. She told him it was the only way he could live forever.So he went back (he was raised a JW before he met me).I tried to talk with him about how false they were but his Mom told him I was an apostate and not to listen to me....after a while I quit talking about it to him..It was what he wanted and apparently needed.

I was so looking forward to our retirement years but he spent most of it telling me if I didn't come back god would destroy me.

He lived one year after he retired. Now I am alone..but in many ways I was alone before that.He had his Mom and Jehovah...

Life is short..do what you can to have a happy life..

As far as kids go..they always seem drawn to the one thing you tell them is "Bad". You have your hands full but it sounds like you are a strong person and handling it quite well! Good for you.

Snoozy.

this is one of the sadest days in my life, my beloved husband marco passed away this morning at 5:15 am.. it has been a dreadful day.

but my dear friend was with most of the day while we went togerther to make funeral arrangements.. that was really hard on me.

i have done nothing but cry and cry all day, i finally fell asleep a few hours ago while my friend diane was here and she let me sleep.

Snoozy

Terry I am so sorry..I too know the pain of losing a husband you love so much. You think you will never stop crying and it feels like your heart is breaking... I still feel like half of my heart is gone.

I too came to this board when hubby was very sick and dying..I received so much support I would sit and cry while I read all the wonderful and encouraging posts..

Big hugs to you and your family..

in the early 60's my family would pack up the chevy belair stationwagon and travel east from california to georgia to visit relatives.

2 adults and 4 children.

we never stopped at motels and would stop at a small town at a local park and have lunch.
