About Awareness Ribbons

General

Gender:	Male
A little about me:	Spouse of one affected by BP. Pretty determined to make it work for our family, for the long run. (one small child, another on the way) We have been through alot over the past 4 years but, we have also learned alot and know what we're up against. We have made it this far and i feel i want to encourage others in similar circumstances...

Tank you for your support. I can't imagine how much harde rit would be for a husband to have BP. A child leaves home (hopefully) but a husband (at least mine) is forever. I don't think I could handle the forever part with a BP. I admire your determination and pray for you. Loving a BP is a difficult life.

Thank you for your diary comment. He had lowered the dose LONG before, but apparently thought he could ween himself off of the meds completely without my knowledge. So, yes, I think that is the factor that set him off.
