Personality change?

Firstly GREAT on losing the weight.  So proud of you.  Secondly I saw your "piece" in the Sunday Mail today.  I am yet to read it as we had friends over for the NRL grand final.  I saw your photo, Ricki's photo and Tonya's photo and thought "they are my pink sisters".  I think all of our husbands go through "something" when we are diagnosed.  My husband is always telling me to stay away from those "cancer people" as he feels it changes me and makes me depressed.  Too right it changes me.  It makes me feel so damn blessed to be alive and well and gives me a greater Jest for living.  Not sure how to deal with his anger most of the time but if we both have friends around or mingle with friends at their homes he seems to be a whole lot better.  He comments that I am different when I am with "normal" people.  (Much more happy)  Yeh I am laughing inside about how strong I am and wondering how these people (some shallow ones) would cope in my situation.  I just love people of all kinds - especially ones who I can relate to (Pink Sisters being at the top of the list).   I know it is very hard for partners to except what it happening to us but I also can't figure out why they want to argue with us.  Why waste valuable and precious time????  If only they would take themselves off to "talk with a professioal".  You are definately not alone in this issue.  I have four friends who have spoken of this exact subject within the last two days.  Maybe someone really "intelligent" can come up with some answers.  Best wishes to you XLeonie
