didn't finish the story. We got divorced but during the proceedings my husband (Philip) had a pioneer operation - he became a bionic man - I could swith him on and off by remote control!!! things got better and we remarried each other about 4 months after we divorced. So you see some things do get better -slightly. Unfortunately the pioneer technology was rejected by his body and he had to have some of it taken out as he kept getting electric shocks. They took the on/off bit out so it in case he ever wanted itback in but now the wires that remain are causing problems so he is having another operation to take some of those out. He can't have them all out as it would be major surgery due to the electrodes being in the neck area All this still doesn't cure the condition CRPD it is done to manage the condition. I am going to write a book on how to survive illness -may be a best seller - whoknows.

maybe I should make the book "living with an on/off switch" - it might get banned though.

Boy, have you two been in the wars! I think my better half would appreciate it if I had an on-off switch too!

Its always hard living with any medical condition and please dont take offence but from the outside i cant help but think that would be fun.
How peaceful life would be. Could do with one for the kids at times too.
