Having to care for two people who are very needy requires all of my attention, and honestly, I&#8217;m about worn out.  My patience is drawn to its extreme.  <\/p>\n<p>Man, I can&#8217;t stand the &#8220;voice&#8221; that my spouse&#8217;s illness has. Trust me, it can be quite nasty.  I know it is not him talking, but nonetheless, there are just so many times I can say, &#8220;I love you, but not your disease and how it makes you say things you don&#8217;t mean and how it makes you behave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This will be a very rough Christmas in the ol&#8217; BHD household.<\/p>\n<p>If you are the praying sort, please pray to relieve my spouse of this awful illness.<\/p>\n<p>Best wishes.
