Hi guys, I am posting this with a heavy heart. Thursday night my wife (joan) tried to comitt suicide, health wise she is fine. I got her to the hospital last night and she is getting some help. I am asking to just say a prayer for her she needs all the help she can get.
I am sorry, I know we have never met but we do have a lot in common, IH community is the best.
Thanks
ron
 
Sorry to hear this ron, just shows what's important in life and it ain't junkiron!

Our best to yore family, we'll be thinkin' of ya!
 
Thanks ihgramps and michael, I went to the hospital today she seems to be somewhat better. She does not want to be there at all but its for the best and it kinda looks like she might be released on Tuesday. The house is pretty quite, and IH work just does not seem as important without her home.
 
Wow, that's some heavy duty stuff there ron. I can't even begin to know what you and your wife must be going through right now, but I'll be keeping you both in my thoughts for sure. The junk iron will still be there wating for you no matter how long it takes to sort this out.
 
Sorry to hear ron. Keep your chin up and think positive. This old iron takes a long time to to rust away so put it off to the side and make your wife your priority.
 
Ron , sorry to hear of your family's troubling situation. Keep your head up and like they said " junkiron can wait". I'll keep your family in my thoughts!!! Brad
 
Ron,
stay strong and help her through it. Like the other fine members here, I'll keep you and your wife in my thoughts.

Ron,

I don't personally know you but I do know what it is like to have a wife in peril. My thoughts are with you and yours. You need to take charge and be strong through this. I happen to be watching my wife die of brain cancer right now, and I can tell you that short of losing one of my children there has been nothing harder than watching my 32 year old wife wither away in front of me for the last year. The only thing that has kept me sane through this is keeping my focus on being there for my boys and making sure that they understand what is happening and that I will be there for them. You have to just keep putting what is important first, forget the rest. Stay strong!!!

Edit: I will add that you need to rely on friends and family for help. Do not be to proud to ask!! I am extemely blessed to have a wonderful family that will drop everything to help and would do anything in there power for me. For me people like my parents, siblings and Jeff, norma and all the ismails make this that much easier to deal with.
 
Thanks Chad, I am very sorry to hear of your wife's illness. I understand completely your words of wisdom. I personnaly have lost a child many years ago and my Dad 3 years ago. I know I cannot do or be everything for everybody. Joan has a long road ahead of her. And I thank god that I found her when I did.
I just got a call from the hospital and I get to bring my beloved wife home today!
I will be great to have her back in the house, telling me what to do:gringrin: it's been pretty quiet around here without her.
I can't thank everyone here on the forum enough, just knowing someone will care even though we have not met has been a comfort.
Ron
 
Wow, some trying times for sure. Ron get some perfessional one on one counsling for yourself now! Since you asked, I would recommned that you ask god everyday to step in and heal the pain, and I will do the same for ya.

Chad, I'm deeply sorrowed to hear your wife is so ill.
 
Thanks Craig, I went to the dr this morning and I am sure god's going to know me on a first name basis.
Thank you
 
Hey guys; I got to bring joan home yesterday things yet well. She seems to be in good spirits and starts theropy tomorrow. I will say I can see my wife like she was a few years ago, I miised her.
I can't thank you guys enough for your support over these past few days it has been a great help to me which inturn has helped her. Still along road ahead but we are getting a real good start.
Thanks again for being here. One of these days, months, years be watching for a 74 Scout with ne plates. We will Meet and shake hands!

There is only one reason I mess with this junkiron...tha folks that it brings into my circle of friends and neighbors!

I really could care less about the "marquee"! It's the real folks who play in this sandbox.

And when I was down and out a few years back, the same folks helped me through it also!

I never cease to be amazed at how scruuin' with IH crap brings real folks together, the posers and dirtbags come and go real quick!
 
Ron,
I can't say enough how happy I am to hear things are going good for you.:smilewinkgrin:

keep an big smile on your face (like in your avitar) and give your wife a big hug for us. We need her to hang around to help keep us going. I'll keep an eye out for you and your wife in your Scout. :gringrin:

I will keep you two in my prayers.

Robert
 
Glad to hear things are going well. Like Chad said, don't try to take on the world. It's important to identify and focus your energy towards things you have the ability to control. Stay strong, prayers are with you and your family.
