My back or more like pelvic muscles were hit earlyy on. NOW my lower back in the words of my son, looks like someone took a shovel and scooped it out! Forget the the years of pain or the fact my ribcage feels like it being held up bone on bone....doctors rarely ask about it. That was my first...

Good morning. I just need to get this out to those that will understand. I am having such a difficult time lately. And so is my husband. Damnitalltohell! Things are changing and I hate this. I hate the disease. I hate what it has done to my husband. The loss of his dignity and the...

Such a hard part of this is getting rid of things, etc. I thought when they took the hospital bed, the cough assist machine, suction device, etc.. that it wouldn't be a big deal. I mean, its not like we shared that bed. It was just stuff to help him. But I cried like a baby. I still can't put...
