My wife and I have both had and still have issues. I've talked about mine before (the four cancers, kidney removal and a lung lobectomy). My wife has RA and severe spinal problems. She had 2 spine surgeries last year and is still in constant pain every hour of every day.
We have actually grown closer and find great comfort in each other. We go day by day and keep looking to tomorrow for better days. We appreciate the good days, which we failed to in the past. We all tend to take life for granted and don't appreciate what we have.
No longer the case my home.
Tomorrow I go to DR. to find out about something new.
