Came To A Head!!

Prayer always helps me more than anything and a good friend with a listening ear, if you have one!

Prayer is your peace. God's hands are your hope.

I will keep you and your hubby in my prayers. Neighbors can be a pain in the butt sometimes and it makes it quite difficult to deal with them. I'll pray for peace around your house and quick recovery for your hubby.

I good luck, I will keep you in my prayers. What's going on with the neighbor?

you and your husband have my good thoughts, prayers and wishes out there on your behalf. I will be watching for good news from you Cortney.

Cortney, I'm sorry to hear that, but in many ways your husband (and you) have been given a great gift. These kind of false alarms can be very scary, but it's great he doesn't have an underlying coronary disease. Now you can work on the stress part.

My thoughts are with you. As Edward says, you've been given a gift. This should be a wake-up call. I know that right now, you're feeling adrift and out of control. Just stop, breath, and remember that you and your hubby have the power to take control, right this very minute.

Ten years ago my own hubby's "chest pains" turned literally overnight into a full on heart attack, triple bypass, and 12 long weeks of recovery. It's scary as hell, so I know where you're coming from. Now is the time to make him understand that he's allowing his stress to kill him.

I don't know the backstory here, but no one and nothing is worth getting so stressed that you leave the ones you love grieving. If you don't do it now, start going for a walk with him every evening. It will improve his health (and yours), will help lower his blood pressure, will burn off stress, and will give him the time to reconnect with you, nature, and what's really important in life.

I used to routinely work 60-70 hours weeks, and put myself under a lot or pressure. Now I spend my "overtime" with the man I came close to losing.

Most importantly, don't overlook your own health, and your own stress. Be kind to yourself. Give yourself permission to be angry and scared. It's going to sound silly, but grab a big bowl of ice cubes, go outside, and smash every single one on the sidewalk. It sounds like breaking glass, no mess to clean up, no one gets hurt, and it relieves a lot of tension. Then go and kiss your husband, and know that a there are a lot of strangers here in cyberspace who will be pulling for you.

Be at peace.

most definatly I will send my prayers and thoughts to you and your husband. Best of wishes and a hopeful "peaceful" night a head,

For you being you, and taking the time to publish this piece you get a lovely ten. Yea For you!!!! :)

I wish him the best!

I hope things work out for your husband.

Breath deep and don't let the little things bother you. There are more important thing to be spending your time on. Make time for yourselves and don't let others drive you crazy.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts, payers and ideas.
