Yes Kathy I think my boy is in for a shock when he jets there. He is keen on going all I can hope is that the training that is given will kick in and he will cope ok? He said once he is there we should be able to keep in contact via email which will certainly help!

We can stress together on this one Kathy! I said goodbye to my boy physically a couple of weeks ago he flies out about the 5th Feb. He is still here in Aus doing training for the next couple of weeks. But I wont be seeing him anymore before he goes. I was a typical bawling Mum at the airport...

I see what you mean Jim and I am glad she is feeling better!

Thanks very much guys! You have helped me to gain confidence with your replies and advice:hello:

Yeh thanks Jods back in to it on the weekend. And I am seeing a guy today who will be doing the business for me one day a week. I dropped the hint to Hubby several times in the last week that I was going ahead with this and gave him the chance to jump up and down if he was going to attempt to...

That has to be a good move on Evies part Kathy? To hand her keys over is very responsible. It seems like she just needs a bit of time out at times hey?

This is interesting thanks guys! Hubby has it for 4 or more days at a time. He does have stomach issues after contracting typhoid when he was in Somalia. But there is a definite pattern when he is stressing over something you can bet a couple of days later his IBS kicks in. His GP said to him...

Kathy glad you are feeling a bit more positive. Its nice to have a sister that you are close to as she would be someone you could confide in? I have two close sisters who I know will always be there for me the only problem is they live a long way away!

Thanks Jods nice to hear from you! Planning to start back at golf next Monday Australia Day Holiday if all goes to plan!

Thanks Jim things are a little better between us this weekend. No change on his part at the moment I am trying to be patient but we are talking about things?

Oh yes Evie but I bet it was an important onion :wink:

Can you get in to see Pysch earler Bec. Maybe if you call her / him with your concern? Hang in there it must be difficult!

I am not a fan of it either Kathy! But as you said if it works for some! You wouldnt believe all the different tablets he is on! You can hear him rattling when he walks:wink:

Recently when I wasnt real good Jim hubby wanted us to get a cleaner in. I changed his mind I just didnt feel right about it. Maybe Kathy feels like that as well? But if she can get over the initial denial it should do her the world of good!

I went with him to the docs yesterday and spent some time with the doc before Hubby came in. I told the doc about a few home truths that I am sure Hubby wouldnt talk to him about. When hubby came in the Doc had a talk to him in his own funny way ( you know the Doc I am talking about Anthony)...

Thanks guys! He was almost human yesterday for the day. He has a doc appt tomorrow but it is mainly about his diabeties.

1 Day 2 Days 3 Days 4 or more Days

Kathy you are a strong woman and hopefully you will be able to cope after a while!

Thanks Anthony all your words make sense to me and I appreciate your input as you said you have been there! I can only hope that me taking the step of getting help at work will open his eyes to the fact that I am not waiting for him any more!

Thanks Anthony he certainly does wallow in his own self pity and feels sorry for himself. You say he will wake up one day and realizes his life sucks? I wonder if that day will ever come? As I said yesterday I am to much of a softie a lot of people would have left him years ago and maybe...

Thanks Kathy my new year resolution was to look after myself a bit more. A lot of my sickness last year was contributed to stress build up over the years. I dont understand why I feel guilty? Maybe its because deep down I dont want to upset him any more? But it will make my life a bit easier...

Thanks guys for all your input it makes a lot of sense and helpful information! I spoke to my Mum tonight and told her I was getting someone else to help me at work as hubby was letting me down and I was getting to stressed about him not helping me? I told her I feel guilty that I have done...

You know what to say hey Anthony? It certainly is a mundane environment especially now the kids have left home? I have just spoken to him on the phone he is really concerned about our finances ( probably because he put us in the situation) he is all doom and gloom. I suggested to him how...

Thanks Anthony I have decided that one step I am going to take is get someone else to help me with the business I just cant rely on him at the moment! I am going to tell him this tonight. Whether or not this will push him deeper down his hole that he is in or not time will tell. I am getting...

I believe if you can push them so to speak in a nice way it would probably help Frankie! I am starting to feel that if I had pushed Hubby earlier on things may have been different. But we get caught up in our lives and try to live and put up with it. If you are in an early relationship it...
