That way you can understand what your husband is going through.

I can aslo relate to your mental and physical pain. I've probably lost 20 lbs in the last few months. Just remember that you need to focus on yourself so that you can be there for your kids. It has really helped me to keep busy with our son, doing more with my friends and doing more running.

Some days are easy than others. Try not to pressure your husband for a time frame to "fix things". That has been the hardest thing for me.

Best of luck.

Trying to Cope,

I feel your pain. Thank you for your support and your words of encouragement. I hope that you too will be able to work this through.
