military husbands

:hello: Andrea,

I am learning how to do some cool things here... In answer to a question my hubby is ranger2_75 Army airborne out of the army in 97. He's disabled 60%.
We just transferred from VA in one spot to another location (our choice). We are hoping to get better treatment from this new to us facility. So far as of the 12-15-06 the new DR issued several prescriptions. Now seeming like a RX he isn't real happy, however; able to better cope with some of the pain. The MRI is set for the 9th of Jan. Hoping that will at least give us the info as to WHY he is having the back pain. Then it will be process to see what can be done to fix the problem.

I have read numerous of your postings, but can't remember reading any of the Desertdeller posts.
I agree that your hubby and mine would probably have a lot in common. The military seems to be really great at "throwing away our guys" especially those with "PTSD". My hubby's PTSD is not yet acknowledged by the VA as part of his disablility. :crazy: How can they not acknowledge it? Going in Circles? YES! He has pain as a result of a parachuting accident (while in the army).
As a result of his pain, I sometimes chose not to hurt him more on a physical basis by being intimate. He's sometimes not happy about that.:frown:
Of course, I don't get to be happy either !
To avoid pain, or to be blissful for a little while that is the question?

we will have to let our guys talk their Military stuff...

hugs to you and yours hope things are getting better....

Feelingalone,
was hoping to hear from you....

flirting, desire, and lovemaking come with long waits in between, and sometimes she will go a long time without expressing any sign of desire for me. It's very difficult. We're in our twenties too, and I want so badly to enjoy being young with her.

Looks like we are in the same situation (im sure many of us are) thats why i wanted to read more about you and what you are going through and also wanted to see how things are going for the two of you lately...
My hubby has been pretty good about showing some type of affection (he hugs me whenever i want a hug and stuff) but i must admit that lately its me that cannot approach him like he would like because of everything that has happened between us so for that reason we dont get to be intimate much.....It does worry me because we are in out 20's and if it doesnt get better now...dont know if it ever will :(
wildcritter,
how are you doing?? i guess i came across this subject and am bothered by it again...it comes and goes.... dont know what to do.....

Hi Andrea have a look at the thread I started ( Am I being a bitch? Straining our marriage)
I have been going through this and we have been married 25 years. As Anthony said in one of his replies I was treading on thin ice.
