  1. Butch,

    I needed my husband's presence to get me through tough therapy times. It takes a survivor a while to comprehend what we can/cannot do. I remember my hubby coaching me through lots of depressing days, and I couldn't of done it without him.

     

    Yes, it was hard, on both of us. Which situation is worse survivor or caregiver?

     

    Don't know, but survivors have good meds to help numb the pain.

     

    Still 2 yrs post my stroke I still have to motivate myself to do my exersizes. It is truely hard to do, we want to get better, but the race seems so long to travel alone. Please hold her hand, and reassure her your commitment you made XX number of years ago. "This is the real:through sicknesss and health."

    I'm just a survivor, don't know much but surviving.

     

    The emotional pain started for me once I left the hospital and saw how helpless I was.When actuality, coming home, is when the going got tough.
