Bethel: you have taken on a major task and I am thankful that he has such a wonderful person in his life who is willing to put her life aside to help him recover.

Put his musical equipment away for now. I have Bruce's in storage, but in all fairness, Bruce will probably never get enough of his right hand back to be able to play and not get frustrated. Your husband may be different. He may, however, be able to write music. There are programs for the computer that help with that. However the black belt does come in handy. There is Tai Chi-Chin (I think) that is recommended for the stroke survivor. That may be something to look into once professional therapy is ended: PT, OT. Bruce's college roommate is looking into it for Bruce.

You are getting the hang of this, I see. One day at a time. And yes, abuse of any sort is not tolerated. Best, Debbie

I'm hoping things will sorta come together like a meeting of the minds and the anger if any will subside shortly!

Fred!
