.....my hypno program still has not arrived. Hopefully tomorrow so I can get started this weekend. Today is a little better. Am able to push through being at work by taking a couple Imodium. My meeting with the customer is in about an hour...so I guess I'd better get busy and head back to the office. I'm so glad it is Friday!

Thank you all for all the support you have given me. I really do appreciate it. {{{{{hugs to all of you}}}}}]

My husband is very supportive too but also I know in his mind he probably thinks if he had this he'd overcome it (doesn't really get it) and at time I know he's tired of dealing with it, but he is so helpful to me when I am sick and puts up with the crummy quickie meals I fix him becaue I can't eat the same thing. He's not really one to cook dinner for himself but will if he has to, I knew that when I married him (and we were both healthy and I liked to cook) and I accept it. He does cook breakfast and we fend for ourselves for lunch. We can't all have saints for husbands. We have what we have and if they are there for us and understand "most of the time" then I think we should consider ourselves lucky. What would the option be, if they aren't perfect to leave them and deal with this alone (and probably have no medical insurance to boot & have to try to hold down a full time job, when some of us can't). All you can do is be sure you tell them EVERYTHING that is going on with you so they have the full pictures as best as they "get it". My 2 cents worth.

Nugget, give me your address, and I'll send you mine by UPS. You'll have it overnight. If you'd prefer sending me your address by e-mail, here I am: RowHard@comcast.net

When you get yours, you can send mine back by snail mail.

Bev.

Well, hubby wants me to share everything with him. It doesn't matter what it is, he wants part of it. If I'm eating a whole wheat bagel and he's eating a toaster waffle, he'll want part of my bagel. That's just the way he is, and I've come to accept it.

Part of sharing everything with him is sharing these boards. He always asks me, "what's the latest?" "Anything new?" "What happened with the Canadian pilot?" "How about the complainer -- is she still around?"

And if I'm reading a post, and I happen to say, "Uh-Oh!" he'll want to know what it is, who it is, etc., so I just read him the post.

This has a very positive side to it. Hearing others' stories not only re-confirms what I'm going through with my IBS, but it helps hubby understand more about the problem, and truly makes him even MORE supportive.

Try reading a few posts to your hubby. He'll "tune in" more than you think.

thank you so much for the offer...but I'm sure mine will be here tomorrow or Monday...I can wait. I do appreciate it though. I remembered that there were some CDs in with some yoga tapes that I bought a while back so yesterday I used one of them. It has some relaxing breathing techniques on there. So I put my headphones on and layed on the bed and listened. They are by Rodney Yee. Helped a little to calm me.

....I'm so thankful to be lucky enough to have the kind of husband that I have. He's wonderful.....just a little hard to convince of things sometimes is all.

I just knew someone was gonna ask. I thought twice about putting that in my post -- but that's how Don refers to the person, and it's an apt description.

Yes, "the complainer" is still around, albeit only occasionally (thank God). As to whom it is -- I'll NEVER tell.

...she wants me to design a label for her products to be sold in Nordstrom's! (lotions and such). I did the original design for her local market.
