what they are going throu must be even worse than what we are going through. As a CHer think for a minute that it is not you that has the pain: You see the pain that is there yet you cant do anythig to alliviate the pain or console the person. You get abusive talk or are shouted at or you are ingoted totally. You want to help but are hopless. You feel guilty because you cant do anything to help. Imagin a baby that cant tell you it is in pain. Wors still cant tell you where it hurts, and how frustrated and uoset you become. I think ouer supporters must realy feel helpless frustrated amgry and allown during oer hopless attacks.
I have not got a supporter at home as such. If I had I would take the time to say how much I appreciate the concideration and the understanding thay are giving me.
I would give them an extra hug for staying in the background and suffer allown. Dont forget we suffer with the beest so infackt are not allown. We swear at him, we knock him about. During this time ouer supporter is all alown listening to ouer agony, our pai ouer frustration and there is not a thing they can do about it.
I wish the supporters stresless nights and days.
