Hello silentmirth,

I'm really sorry that you and your wife are going through such a hard time. This isn't her fault nor is it your fault, and your stepson (I don't know his age ), could be acting out because mummy is different and unwell (I say that not knowing what the behaviour was or how bad it was).

You need counselling in order to put things into perspective. MS can and does go into remission. Your wife does need you to support her but she also needs to know how you are feeling how you are affected, without throwing her into a panic and thinking that you are going to leave her because she is sick.

There are support forums here for MS and there is a forum for carers too, I suggest you go there and ask for help and understanding,

take care and let us know how you go,

Rhiannon
