I know this must be hard on you watching your husband go thru hell, and I am sure he appreciates your support and all the extra responsibilities you've had to take on due to this. My wonderful b/f has taken over laundry, work, and care of the kids/house and makes things as simple for me as he can so that I can use my energy and any remaining strength to fight the beast and his band of lurkers. I'm probably about 1/2 way thru my cycle w/another 3-4 wks to go and those christmas rituals seem a bazillion lifetimes away right now. For me, I know the end is somewhere near when it intensifies and increases in frequency, which REALLY sucks!, but then taper off to dull aches that get further and further apart. Keep strong Connie. Do all the things you can to make life and the holidays "normal", like the shopping, etc. Believe me, your hubby will appreciate the angel you've been thru this and will love you even more for all the support you've shown.
