Thank you ALL for hanging with me and for each and every prayer on my behalf. I'm sorry I have neglected my thread so badly, but I just haven't had much strength. I have had a tough winter. Been mostly on bedrest. Now I am starting to move about again and am seeing several new specialists. Among them are two therapists that are trying to help me with my PTSD. I am finally learning some coping skills for all the flashbacks and panic attacks. I am also seeing a new DR for my migraines that uses biofeedback to teach patients how to control their bodies in order to try to help with the pain. I have a finger thermometer and I can actually raise the temp of the blood in my hands by 6 degrees with these execises. Thus pulling the blood away from my head, and taking the pain with it. My husband is also having to learn new things. Like not picking on my dogs, which is a threatening behavior to me. The therapist is insisting that my husband own up to his deeds that caused my PTSD (and are still triggering it). We have our work cut out for us, to say the least. On a good note, though, my husband IS willing to try. A surprise this week . . . my husband bought me a new car! A cute little blue Saturn. He also says he wants me to feel better so that we can spend time together. He seems genuine about it, too. Just the same, I am always on guard for mood swings. One thing is sure. I have always had Christ. He is my Rock. Anytime I need Him, I just ask Him to come close and He is right there, ready to hold me up. I know He won't let me fall.
