My husband tries to be understanding but he's not a compassionate person. When I say "I'm really hurting" he says "what's for dinner". I had a hysterectomy/2 hernias repaired 2 weeks ago and he has been wonderful. He has been having left flank pain and lower the last couple of days--then last night the pain just about killed him. Today he was diagnosed with diverticulitis. (inflamation/infection of the colon membrane--with little pouches off the colon) He told me today that he finally understands how much pain I'm in and what I go thru. He also gave me a great big hug. Not that I'm glad he got this but it's nice to know he understands. Now if I can get everyone else around me to understand too.
