Great post Julie. You are to be commended for being a full-time caregiver!!! I wish you both luck!

Hi Julie,

What a great post--both a bit sad as well as tremendously inspiring; you have a will and a heart the size of the Rockies! And Kate seems to have the will and the heart to match. Kudos to you both, and to your family, for having sorted out your priorities and for sticking by them. I wish I had your clear-eyed strength. Thanks for sharing this with us, Julie.

May you both be well. My thoughts are with you.

Love,
CJ

Hi Julie, my heart goes out to you for your caring and love to a wonderfull wife. I fully understand your situation as I too am thier and walking in your shoes. I guess I don't need to say anymore,bless you for your LOVE to her.

Julie,

I have even more respect for you after reading your post than I did prior and that was a tremendous amount in itself.

Best Wishes to your wonderful wife and may G-D bless both of you and yours.....

Hi Julie! Thanks so much for sharing part of your life in your post. Both you and your spouse have to be tough ladies to deal with it all. Be well, for both of you, and be yourself!

Love,

Julie

Thanks for sharing your story with us all.

Hey Julie,
Your wife seems to have found riches beyond compare. Your story was so touching. Yes, sad, but also very inspiring and loving. I can feel the love and compassion you have for your spouse. It's most obvious in what you write. I may have said this before, but you're a gem.
This is usually where i would throw in something of myself in relation to what i read, but that doesn't seem to fit this post. Your wife may be in pain, but you should know that she is also at peace. Peace of mind, stemming for you nurturing care and affection.

She is very lucky.

Excuse me, i must clear the lump in my throat.

Love,
Kyra

Dear Julie,

What an inspiring story! You go, girl!

Have to agree, both of you are very lucky!

By the way, Julie, I imagine many scientists may be moved to tears when faced with the intricate grandeur of the natural world, of which we and our emotions are an integral part.

Also, there unfortunately aren't any emoticons to represent a "lump in the throat." I sometimes wish there were.

Love,
CJ

Julie, you are a beautiful person, you have let the love light in your heart guied you though your lifes journy. Though not easy and at times almost unbarable as it may get, your love has lead you to a place in all of our hearts as it has in so many others I expect. Thank you for being you, your sharing with us and look at things that really matter.

Hi Julie,

You are an incredible hubby.

BRAVO!! BRAVO!! BRAVO!! for taking care of the one who is truest to you, your wife.

I don't take it for granted for one second the love you give your wife or the caring you give to her. What you're doing is incredibly difficult.

You live your life to help her, out of love.

I'm just in awe of what you're doing and I'm happy to know that such a respectable person is a member of this forum.

If you could see my eyes, you'd know these aren't just words. That was a great post and in my opinion you are a great person! I pray that your wife is doing the best she can be. She was sure blessed when she met you.

All the best,
Beauty

Hi Julie,

I'm still awake and happy that I am.

You write sooo well!!! Your writing creates great pictures to follow your story.

The support we give is the support you give. Have a new person come in and spread their feelings around the forum is like a brand new day. It's great having you here.

I have a question (you don't have to answer) You said neighbors don't offer help and I started to get a little p'd. Then I read the next sentence and you said you're quiet people. So do they not help because they don't know you and your wife?

Again, if I'm being too nosy, nevermind.

Have a good night!!!

Hey Y'all,
I have to put in my two bits here. We (my family) are also fairly quiet people. I thought some of our neighbors were "nose in the air, better than you" sort of people. But after a few waves when driving by, I mustered up some courage and started talking to them. Simple things at first, and then more personal. Hey, it turns out my neighbors aren't all jerks after all. I mention this even though it might be obvious, but sometimes people tend to stay "standoff-ish" until it's clear that they are welcome. In my personal experience, I found that my neighbors were giving me my space until I was ready to open up to them. After all, we were the new kids on the block. Now I know you've been there quite awhile, but I wonder if they're just trying to be courteous. I dunno. I'm not there living your life. Okay, maybe 20 years of courtesy is too much. (Am i rambling?)
OMG! Senior moment. I forgot the point I wanted to make here. I guess it's that sometimes people need a little nudge to let them know it's okay to say Hi or help with the groceries. Yeah, something like that.

Time to shut up, now.

Hugs,
Kyra

P.S. - You are a wonderful person, and If someone can't see that, it's their loss. Not yours

Hi Kyra,

That wasn't rambling. It made perfect sense.
