I like when you are sick and the doctor can't do anything for you. What is the point."<br /><br />Hoo boy, did I have to bite back some venom! I at least toned down my response to: "Yeah that's my life. But I know what you mean, when it's something is actually going to get better, they just can't help it along, that bites."<br /><br />I think I started with the frame of mind like yours, Julia, like "yeah well you're going to get better and I'm still going to be...me (snap snipe grumble grouse)". But then I realized that I KNOW I'm not going to 'get better'. I don't go to a doctor hoping to be sped along the road to recovery (anymore)...but if you're not used to that, and know you WILL get better but have to wait, that still sucks too.<br /><br />Not that I wouldn't trade places with her anyway...<br /><br />(Hugs)Jenny Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870488565611786295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-68698644493915956922011-01-05T17:38:28.900-08:002011-01-05T17:38:28.900-08:00When my husband has gotten ill, it makes me realiz...When my husband has gotten ill, it makes me realize how much I'm dependant on him for many things, and it leaves me feeling scared. If something were to happen to him, how would I cope? Somehow, we cope because we have to, no matter how ill WE are, because life goes on, tommorrow's another day, and we are used to the convoluted life we are forced to live. Glad everyone's better.annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-8322863873889811862011-01-05T16:00:37.892-08:002011-01-05T16:00:37.892-08:00I always think of those moments as moments of grie...I always think of those moments as moments of grief, which always makes sense of the other stupid feelings like jealousy, etc. And then I can cry or feel sad for a bit. Then I get back on with my life. It really does help me to realize that every loss (even little tiny ones) are still moments to be grieved.stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01590844358772463697noreply@blogger.com
