Hi All

usually I come here to vent about hubby but this time it’s everybody else!!!!

just wondered if anyone else has experienced this

hubby has multiple myeloma with extensive spinal lesions and has fought back from deaths door, takes a number of different drugs daily and has learnt to walk again.

my issue is that from being 5ft 9’’ he’s now 5ft 4 ish with a slight spinal curve BUT and this bit is important with the internal organs of a bigger man in a smaller space- this means that despite watching his diet and trying to be as active as possible he has a protruding belly people feel they can tell him he’s gotten fat!!! honestly I’ve wanted to hit so many people this week!!! 
How fu**ing dare they!!!!!!!!
He started talking about eating less- until we had a frank conversation that not eating properly = getting ill = hospital stay but honestly my heart breaks for him as I watch him look in the mirror

This amazing strong gorgeous ( in my eyes) man  who’s fought so hard to stay around and annoy me for as many years as we are granted being cut to the quick by insensitive idiots
