Eric, I like the sound of your wife and mum (mom). They both sound like my kind of people. Also Eric, thanks for writing what you did. It put a smile on my face and helps to reassure me that I'm never alone with my feelings.

It never ceases to amaze me the bond I have with all of you. It's like nothing I have ever experienced in my life. It seems to me that all of us here on OCF are the kind of people that "can cope". Maybe that's why we were chosen to go through this experience. Most of the people I know would run a mile. But my job as Steve's wife is not only to protect his physical welfare but also his emotional welfare. He has had enough to battle what with treatment and recovery. It's my job to look after the rest.

Love to you too Eric xx
