DaisyM,
It sounds to me like this might be grief...if you are living with a husband that has an illness. My husband had a stroke at a young age and my children were in junior high...lots of grief! He was still alive but the loss of who he had been was tremendous. I am a pull yourself up by the bootstraps kind of person. I didn't realize how much grief there was and he lived five more years. The ups and downs go with illness and the grief that comes from that. I would talk to the therapist and see if this could be some of it. Feeling like its the same thing over and over is usually because it is with chronic or terminal illness. It is over and over again and it doesn't get easier just because you have been there before. I trust you will see the sunshine a little better this week even though the cloud of illness is still present.
