Just a reminder if you are reading this from the beginning start from the bottom up.
I have to say I have been hard on husband #3. He went through a difficult time when he was with me. We were exposed to an alleged illegal chemical release from a nearby crude and gas offloading facility. We didn't know at the time what the heck happened but it made me very ill. It made many people in our small town ill to different degrees. He had to take care of me and in the process had his own life changing events happen. I tried to be there for him but I was awfully ill. Some days I couldn't stand up. I felt like he stopped seeing me as a wife, lover, or companion. Having low self esteem over being ill and feeling like a horrible wife my mental health was in question.
After I had my stroke they shooshed us out the door. We had no clue as to what to do. Back in 2003 I suppose the hospital didn't have any practice with younger stroke victims. Husband #3 got on the computer to find what would help me as well as all the research he did on the chemicals that were in our area. He found a game shaped in a circle that I had to follow the prompts to exercise my brain. I am grateful to him being there. He played that brain strengthening game with me and I remember laughter. We had more good times now that I think about it.
