Update on Wife’s Condition

Hi everyone,

I wanted to keep you updated on what is going on with me these days, so you all wont wonder and worry.
I went back to the dr just yesterday, and from all the testing they expect me to recover just fine but it will take some time. Right now the toxins that my liver built up are causing my muscles to have random pain and my kidneys are still not at 100% but with every day the symptoms get better.
My spirits are lifted not only by the symptoms getting better but also by the outpouring of support from everyone.
Hersband said to be sure and let you all know she appreciates it as well, she has been a trooper and been by my side every day caring for me, praying for me and crying when I wasn’t looking. You don’t know how hard it is being on the road to a goal and being derailed by severe illness. The worst part was not the illness the worst was that we had to think about if everything we have together would be preserved as Hersbands should anything happen to me. It is hard being straight and sick but it is even harder being GLBT and sick.

We have a very good friend who is battling cancer right now and his husband of over 20 years has been by his side all the way but only because they are dealing with understanding and compassionate drs. Here in the south we are not always that lucky. This is all the more reason to pass equal rights for everyone. Even if you dont like the idea of marriage it is not about marriage it is about equal rights, one of witch is the right to be with your partner at the end, when they need your comforting words, kisses and tears the most.

Anyway I digress, Thank you all for your well wishes. I will try to keep you updated as often as I can. Please continue the prayers and energy.
Wife
