So how does a person get help when we know hardly anyone. It's weird we've live in Whatcom County for 30 years and have so few friends. No one I know to go to in a crisis. The people I know are the people I work with. I play music with a group of people who care for me but we don't have time...

Know that if she is doing it for you she loves you. I keep telling my husband that even if he feels guilty that he can't do what he used to do it doesn't matter because I love him. I do a lot of what he used to but I love him. I feel overwhelmed but he is the love of my life. That's what...

I'm taking medicine for bipolar II and anxiety. It's working better than anything else we've tried. I see a therapist as often as I can afford to. I don't know how to find the time to talk to anyone. I have so much fall stuff to do and then comes winter stuff and he can't do it now. I can't...

Man, there's too much. He's in pain all the time now. He lifted too hard and injured his hip. I work full time and my job is very physical. I'm doing the yard work and shopping because he can't get out. I'm exhausted. And I don't make enough money to cover bills let alone extra medical...

Yes you're right it does affect me but in the end it's his choice. I can only hope he chooses to help me because I'm too small to help him

Thanks for the info and I'm aware of the local ALS support group. I work full time days so I can't get to the meetings Eric won't go without me. Anyway I wish I could meet with other people but he doesn't like me to go without him and he doesn't like to go out. I don't have friends and I feel...

Hi Music67 i'm a musician, are you? Maybe we've met. I work at Good Will. I'm logging out but let's chat. I've contacted the local ALS support group they meet on Thursday and I'm almost always working. Eric will never go alone. I don't know how to connect him with people who can help him...

Help! I've posted the same message a bunch of times. I cry your mercy! I'll learn to do this eventually.

I love Bellingham. I'd never leave for long. He isn't seeing a physician let alone any kind of neurologist. He's terrified and changes in his abilities are happening quickly. He doesn't want to undergo invasive (read needles) procedures or take multiple medications and doesn't feel confident...
