Gaining Ground Many Thanks

I didn't realize how alone I felt until I came here. Once a soldier always a soldier. (I was in the military) I have always just, "pushed thru." I also didn't know how lucky I am. MY husband finally accepting my disease and my children are grown. Now I have found all of you!! I feel useful again. I have all this stuff I know & now I can share some of it, maybe make someone's life better. While enriching my own.

I wish you pain free mornings and restful nights

Blessed Be

Without this site to check in with I don't know how we'd be feeling. Hubby has RA and sometimes I've felt so lonely watching hubby in pain and feeling so sad for him 😞 I wish you and your hubby all the best. Sue xx

Welcome I was in the Army for 6 years so I know what you mean about pushing through, I've had this disease since 2014 and was really struggling at first but I'm on a Bisomar now and along with mtx I've come out the other side, and I've still got the grit to beat this horrible disease so I'm stepping up on my fitness with aerobics Aqua , body step and other classes, hope things work out ok xxx
