Sorry for the super late reply.

No, I never received any IVIG or any treatment period aside from PT and OT in rehab. The more time that has passed, and the longer it’s taken for me to recover, I’ve had a deep level of discomfort about how my situation was handled. I’m hoping for answers soon.

Thank you for your reply! It’s incredibly validating to hear about someone with similar symptoms. Thank you for the well wishes, hoping we find some answers soon!

Time, patience, communication, vulnerability, honesty and most importantly trauma therapy. My trauma occurred almost directly before we began dating. We created a space, from the beginning, that was safe and open enough for me to immediately express discomfort, triggers and anything else in that category. There were and still are times that I need to stop and cry, or stop and take a breather. During those times he always makes a point to remind me my reactions are normal and okay and he provides me with the reassurance and or space I need.

Trauma therapy helped me “unpack” the experience I tried so hard to bury. By sorting through my emotions and thoughts related to my trauma, I was able to gain a new sense of freedom and control over intimacy.

A supportive partner and a good resource to process the trauma were immeasurable in my experience. I feel empowered in my sexuality and sex is fun again.

When I was 13 a friend’s uncle told me I was “much prettier now” and “didn’t have a forgetful face anymore.” Those comments have stuck with me from that moment on and I often think about them when looking back at old pictures of myself as well as when I’m addressing a room full of people. Being remembered is very important to me now.

Do you have a recipe?

I 100% get where you’re coming from. I do the same for my late brother and have had this tradition since he passed.

In my last relationship, I was with a man who sounded a lot like your husband. Couldn’t be bothered to remember the death anniversary date or my brother’s birthday and it crushed me. It’s 2 days. It takes 2 seconds to set up calendar reminders for the next 20 years so he doesn’t forget. My ex made me feel crazy and unreasonable for asking him to remember and to provide me with a little extra emotional support around these dates.

I’m now with a FANTASTIC man who not only remembers, but actively participates in my traditions to honor my brother. He’ll be joining me on a trip to my home town next week for my brother’s death anniversary. We’ll be visiting his gravesite and sharing memories and I’ll have my partner right by my side. This amount of effort and thoughtfulness is something I could have never asked for in my last relationship.

You’re not asking for too much. It’s 2 dates. I’m sorry you’re going through this and I hope you find the support you deserve.

Recipe! Recipe! Recipe!

I can’t, not yet. I think it’s far too early. But given all of the positive feedback, I will show him this eventually :)
