DTT BOTM WINNER
hear goes i ve been quick to lose it here lately and it not just on this site. a perfect storm of events has my fuse pretty short, My drinking is just shy of out of control. My friends somehow got me wrapped up in a gang fight. half of my house is gutted for a remodel that i ran outta money half way through and we just found out my wife is very sick (it will not kill her but it may turn to ms and there is no cure). so that is that, ill deal with all of it. And im not saying that makes me being an asshole ok it just what is going on. On dtt lately i ve found myself going out of my way to be a dick anyway im sorry, ive meet some real kool people on this site and if ive pist any of you guys off ill try to make it right.
Like i said its a take it or leave it apology

Dude stress changes all of us. Try and keep it positive and hopefully things will turn in your favor. If you need to vent feel free. It's better than going postal at your local neighborhood grocery store.
 
Hey man, my wife has MS..she was diagnosed in 2003. It's a tough disease but manageable!! Stress, lifestyle and diet are HUGE factors in it as well....you need to support your wife as well...in every aspect and understand that MS will make her act/be/do things that's not her...join the MS society and find a local support group...pm me if you want and I can give you some info and resources....Best of luck to you both.
 
I hear you, man. Going through a pretty rough patch as well. Hope it gets better.
 
I am sorry to hear about your troubles. You definitely do not need gang violence in your families life. I hope everything starts to turn around for you and your wife. Hang in there. Your frustrations are understandable.
 
thanks, There is enuff that i dont know about what is going on with her to stun a team of oxen, as it stands she does nt have ms but that is the next step if things were to worsen
 
MS isn't all that bad. I mean, I know Mac has all it's iGroupies, but Windows7 hasn't given me any trouble at all :p ;D









Hang in there man ;)
 
Life gets us all a little punchy sometimes. We understand, no sweat. ;)
Illness in the family has a way of cutting all the unnecessary stuff out of our lives and showing us what is important (family). :)
 
Brad, first off thanks for being a stand up guy, it's takes one to step up and moke note of one's own public shortcomings. Bravo. It's tough when life dumps it's crap on a guy, but add in the health of a loved one and it's a recipe for some real strife.

You're a creative kat, let that be your outlet......you have other things that need your energy too much to spend it on gang fights and booze-outs. I've been there amigo and the road is bumpy going in and way worse coming out. There are some 10,000 buddies here for you mate......
 
Thanks man the gang fight thing so far is a near miss for me any ways a few of my friends learned a life lession thou all the greaser guys got lumped together and targeted becouse of a bar fight it was a mental ass kicken for me, trying to keep 20 hot headed 50s throw backs from starting duces wild part2 i think it is over i hope anyway
 
Hang in there Brad. So far you have shown remarkable maturity. We all lose the plot sometimes and few of has the strength of character to fess up.

A few years ago I was going through one of life's inevitable downs, someone said to me that we are never tested with more than we can handle. It sounded odd at the time, but it's true. We can deal with incredible adversity and make it through because we choose to. It isn't always easy, but we can get through it.

Focus on your wife. She needs your attention to bring this under control and to manage whatever is going on. She needs you to be strong. We're here to support each other in whatever way you need it.
 
Thanks, she seems fine real tired thou we need to figure out the does and donts cause every thing is kinda new. The doctor said it can spread so i figure at some point ill get the same news if im gonna end up with it, i already have it by now. Shes tuff well figure it out. Teazer i think people are always tested with just a little more pain than they are use to just to thicken the skin abit and once a someone takes advantage of the pain and learns from it they start to become a better person
 
Good luck, try and chill.
I just blame the meds when I go a bit crazy (unless it's another damn 'how fat a tyre can I fit' ::) )
It's got nothing to do with pain ;)
Maybe we can get back to British bikes ;D

thanks pj i was in the middle of a very shity rant about lucas and a space ship when i realized i needed to stop. thanks for understanding, but you still will not have to race me to a norton for sale for 300 bucks lol it all yours
 
Step by step man. 2011 has been a toughie for lots of us. No worries. You didn't offend me. know how things can pile up mentally and take over. It's tough to stay posi, but just look at the good things you have, projects (besides the house) you want to complete. It's nice to take a break from those big projects every now and then. I find I get all wound up with wanting to complete things. Sometimes it is better to take a few months off and return from a fresh angle. What helps me is to get rid of clutter. It does wonders for my mind and attitude. My wife and I are in the process of clearing out things we don't need from our home.


Sending positive vibes to you and your wife. MS is tough but manageable. I have a friend who was diagnosed two years ago. She watches her diet, she's very social, enjoys her job, still smokin' Js, staying out dancing all night and getting busy with her man. It takes time but you guys can succeed.


DTT is a special place. I've noticed the intensity level has escalated a bit this year. Remember to treat it as a safe haven, a church of sorts. We are your brothers and we're here to support you. Stay posi, Brad. 8)
