DH Health Issues... How do you cope?

[Brandi]

GRRR! This is driving me crazy... they still haven't scheduled the test. I guess they are busy - but I want a date. DH isn't pushy... so it's looking like I'll have to be!

I'll warn DH about the prep - and he will be happy to hear that the test itself is 'easy.' I'll have to go shopping for some expensive TP; thanks for the warning!

DH and I did have a nice weekend. We made a special dinner together last night (African sweet potato peanut stew), and Saturday night was his work holiday party (they do it very late so that it won't conflict with other holiday plans - and so people are more relaxed). It was nice - I even got him to dance with me! It's usually like pulling teeth, and I didn't even have to ask twice.

I'm going to call his doctor's office right now. I know they won't tell me anything (for privacy reasons), but maybe I can get them to check on why the referral office hasn't called yet to set the appointment.

I want the recipe for your stew it sound interesting! And I looooove peanut anything. When you have time can you post it. Pleeeaaaassse!
My dh is very private about he's health too. He does not like me talking to anyone about it. And talking helps me so much. If I don't I explode! I did that last week with dh. I had been holding a few things for months and it all caught up with me.I am better now.
Once I talked to a friend about an issue with my dh's health. My dh got so mad at me! He asked why I couldn't just respect he's wishes. I am much more carful now. Having all these women here to talk to too (and Mr Silver) really helps. He has no idea when I ask ? here. It has helped me!
