Happy anniversary! NoT !!!!!!

[Blurry62]

GCA and I have been together for a bit over a year now.. In an effort to co- habitate amicably, we've sat through several hours of counselling sessions,. We have endured needle sticks and IV jabs, incredulous looks from professionals trying to care for us, brutal steroids: gained weight, changed our appearance, accepted bland food, and day after day of weariness and weakness. While I have attempted to see this relationship, through blurry eyes, in as positive a light as possible- I've logged on to announce to my GCA/PMR family that I have decided to file for divorce.

PS. GCA has been unfaithful: strong indications that there are three of us in this relationship now. Her initials are PMR . Ya, totally going with the divorce.

( thank you for listening. God bless all my fellow warriors today. )

I tended in earlier days to look on PMR and pred as a pair of dragons pulling me in different directions, requiring my attention so that I went towards recovery. One wanted nothing more than to be rid of both of them!

It is certainly the gorilla that one learns to live with but never tame. Hope the next year finds a smoother journey for you. I love the idea of counseling with a gorilla 🙂

Let’s hope it’s not a long drawn out affair then. Or too stressful.

Oh dear ...

Just think of PMR as a temporary house guest. Be very sweet with her and when she leaves ask her to take GCA with her, then bar the door!!

😂 Sooooo true. Take it to the cleaners!

You have the one year itch, just a few more years to go and you'll look back and laugh and cry and laugh, then think oh sod this.

Now that was a good laugh...

Filing for divorce isn't always the perfect solution. You do have the top mediator, Mr. Pred, and he does try his best to calm the turmoil, you know that he try's his very very best to relieve the situation.

I totally understand your feelings when a third party is involved, let's just use her initials for now PMR...She can be one hell of gal to deal with, but you must fight for your own sanity and not give up.

You always have Mr. Pred on hand, and even though the price of Mr. Pred is high, you will get to what you want in the end.

Excellent post Blurry. I am thinking I might file for a divorce too!

[Pollypuds]

Love this post😊. I'm citing unreasonable behaviour...I'm just not sure if mine or the PMRs😂

I too have a ménage a trios in my life. I first tried mediation no such luck had to bring in Mr. methotrexate as well He seems to get along well with Mr. Pred. So far the jury has been very compassionate and not too hard on me (There are one or two jurors who are not quite in agreement on my care !). I am very much looking forward to my first fling ( not flare!) after the divorce !

Great post to wake up to, thanks 🥰
