Nelie,

I can't imagine what you're going through right now. I do wish that your counselor had adopted the "swift kick in the butt" approach with your husband -- what he's doing is inexcusable (but as Gail notes, he's not alone in his self-absorption). Serious illness has a tendency to show what people (including caregivers) are made of, and unfortunately, the results are not always what we would hope for.

Please remember that there are MANY people here who are continuing to pull for your complete recovery. I hope you have other family members who can be there for you as well. If your husband can't deal with this situation, it's his loss and a sorry reflection on his character.

Cathy
