I just need to rant and I don't feel like I can talk to anyone in my real life.
A year ago my husband and I moved to be closer to our families while our son was being born. We left a town where we had friends and I had a great support system. The plan was to move back once our baby was a little older and my husband had gotten a job (he just graduated). Soon after our baby was born I got diagnosed with MS. I started treatment a couple months ago and have been having trouble with side effects and general MS trouble.
Because the only job my husband could get requires him to travel and be gone for weeks at a time we decided to stay close to our families rather than move. Our families live in a small town and we are not small town people.
I keep feeling in turns immensely grateful that we have our families to help when I am not feeling well, and immensely defeated because I already feel like my decisions are being dictated by an illness.
I am trying really hard to stay positive, but I keep seeing all the dreams and plans I had for our life fall apart in front of us in a few short months.
