When you give that special lady a hug, look her in the eye and smile too...a warm smile can break the chill of the harshest winters...~ :)

drew, i also pray for your wife, and yourself.  your words are genuine and reflect the love you have for your wife.  i have noted in blue above, a statement made by our arcturus, because it is such a short statement yet it speaks volumes to anyone who suffers from chronic pain, day in and day out, year after year.  this statement represents exactly how sometimes a chronic pain sufferer isn't looking for a cure by their family members, but instead just a hug and a smile.  compassion.   :)  drew, it is apparent that God the Father of Jesus Christ is working in your heart to understand and reflect this compassion towards your wife.  i have suffered with fibromyalgia and degenerative disc disease for the past 10 yrs and can empathize with your wife's frustrations.  my own husband (of 19yrs) is an unbeliever/agnostic.  i have seen him try to adjust to these medical conditions, see-sawing between being sympathetic and then screaming loudly at me that he is ''so frustrated that these conditions of mine affect what he wants to do".  and sometimes he will list how each major symptom caused by the fibro or degeneration, affects specific things that he would like to do but can't because my sleep patterns stay screwed up, or the pain gets so bad whenever i overdo around the house/yard/babysitting my great-nephew, that i can't do this or do that with him.  i sincerely do understand his frustration.  chronic pain in anyone is frustrating and can affect the whole family.  i guess what i am trying to say here drew is that i commend you highly for the compassion you are showing your wife, and want to thank you for the support you are giving your wife.  please forgive me drew, and everyone else if i have gone on too long.

Drew:
Thank you Claudia for your kind words of encouragement toward me ( I am undeserving and yet the Father is doing His Mighty work in me toward Lou Ann and I am thankful for that) and for your empathy toward Lou Ann. Yes, I took Arc's suggestion, that I give my Lady a hug and to look into her eyes and smile before I did, as coming from God; the response was beautiful to behold. I will continue to do just that, regularly, by God's grace. Mr. Smith's teaching and the blessed fellowship with you and other forum members is more than I expected. Oh, and no, you didn't say too much. What and how much was perfect and in the fullness of time. The evidence of God's "...working in us to will and to do His good pleasure" becomes clearer to me daily or almost so. I ask God to reward you and your husband with Blessings beyond what you could ever expect. What you are going through certainly sounds to be similar to what Lou Ann is experiencing. May God be Gracious to you. Amen. ;)

Hi Drew,
I'm so very sorry to hear about your wife's pains, I definitely agree with Claudia and commend your dedication to your dear wife who needs the assurance that you are there for her and that she is not a burden to you. It is so very important what you are doing. I pray that she will find a remedy to help her pains and suffering.
I have a friend who has been using fish oil capsules for a month and alternating it with arnica tablests the next month and she swears by it. She has been suffering from sciatica and rumetoid artheritis for a very long time now and has been feeling much better since starting this method. Drew, check this out with your doctor and see what he says... not everybody believes in homeopathic or alternative medicine...
God in His Mercy will help you find a way.
Blessings.

Claudia, I'm so sorry to hear about your medical problem too. I will pray that you find a solution and maybe check out the fishoil remedy too?
I do not want to seem eager with remedies, but I feel for you and hope your chronic suffering is alayed somewhat.
A big hug to you and Lou Ann.
Blessings

Drew,

               I will pray for your wife and for you. I hope that you both feel all the love and support you both have here. You remind me of my lovely husband, he is strong when I am weak and he is always there to hold me when I need to feel that strength. Your wife and I are very lucky to have such strong, loving husbands.
