I have been with my husband for 18 years. We have 2 boys 17 & 15. I worked as an office manager until Oct. 05' when I couldn't anymore. I was involved in Cub Scouts, jr. football, baseball, sports boosters and attend everything my children participate in. I am a control freak, I think that's why this disease is so hard. I was the one who did everything, and I enjoyed it. I took care of my husband for 6 mos. when he was hit head on by a drunk driver, his sister for 3 mos. when she was severly injured in a car wreck and his father before he passed away from cancer. We had nospice in our home for him. My husbands other sister takes care of me now. I am not a good patient! I don't like this at all! I really try to stay positive so things are as normal as possible for everyone around me. The emotional liability really makes it very difficult to keep that attitude up. I have just started the hospice program. If you're interested further about me visit: www.myspace.com/gndfuller
