[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 174765, member: 805"] Linda, I'm sorry to hear this but it's not really too suprising. You are dealing with a cronic illness and so is he. No, he's not suffering the physical pain and limitations you are, but he's suffered all the same. I'm in no way excusing his behavior and seemingly intent to give up. He's been parenting wm basically by himself since you've been ill and his life has changed right along with yours. He's obviously reached a point where he felt his only alternative was to throw a temper tantrum, throw his hands up and give up. If he has not had a place to come and vent his frustrations, voice his dissappointments, and relieve his stress, it's understandable that he's about to blow (or has blown). Perhaps this weekend in a cabin can refocus his priorities. It stinks that he has dropped this on you at this time. I certainly hope he has not turned back to the bottle as a way to cope, which we know is not coping at all. You are smark to lock away all the medications. Anyway there is a sub PCA that can step in this weekend? What is normally done if the PCA is ill and supposed to be there? Is there someone else in the pipeline that can step in? What about one of your sisters? Could one of them come for the weekend in a pinch? Keep us posted Linda. We are here. Sharon [/QUOTE]
