Hi! I'm Dee. I have anxiety and depression. I belong to a support group in Co. Spgs. CO.This is very helpful. Thought it would help to have contact with people on the internet when I'm not able to get out. My husband is a cancer patient.

Have a good day. Dee

Welcome Dee!!

We'd love to have you join us!!! It is great that you are in a local support group. I'm soooo sorry about your husband . . . I hope his docs are managing his care well. I really think that chronic illness is often harder on the spouse than on the patient. Kudos to you sis for your big role in his care.

Blessings!

Adding my welcome to the HW family. This is a wonderful group of friends and I look forward to getting to know you better.

We can respond to irritation with a smile instead of scowl, or by giving warm praise instead of icy indifference. By our being understanding instead of abrupt, others, in turn, may decide to hold on a little longer rather than to give way. Love, patience, and meekness can be just as contagious as rudeness and crudeness.

Welcome Dee

I too think that we need each other to keep going on the day to day grind. I am presently going through a "Period of Depression". Nothing looks positive to me at present. I have found several people on this site a great Help. I'm sure you will too. This is my support group.

Will be having a change in medication today. ( apt. with my MD )

I would like to thank everyone for your replies. I don't know how to do it individually.
Curley I have a niece that has Crohns. She is recovering from surgery now and is doing fine.
Thank you, Randy, Fairskies. Ralph, hope the new meds work.
AlwaysRosie, it's been a good week. Between Medicare and my husband's insurance we got a Hoverround. This is very helpful.
This is a very friendy site. I find the more friends you have the easier it is to cope. Happiness to all, Dee
