Hi Everyone.
My husband was diagnosed with AZ about 3 1/2 4 yrs ago, he is currently working part time doing a job that has been created for him by his boss ( very good boss). However I have noticed over the last six months that this is becoming a struggle but he does not want to leave, except hes just called me now to tell me that he burst into tears at work, fortunately in front of his boss, he says he dosnt know why he started crying, it took me a great deal of guessing, and helping him just to get that info from him so i didnt want to push him anymore, ( hopefully will find out more when i pick him up later) Anyway what im asking is do you think its time maybe to discourage him working, i really want him to keep going as it gives him a sense of purpose and it makes him feel wanted, its a really hard one but i know the few bloke he works with really dont have an understanding of what is going on with him so i dont think they will be very sympathetic ( i know this because of comments theyve made in the past). His boss is really amazing but i dont think the other lads like the fact that my OH gets special treatment. It feels like a massive dilemma to me and i know its nothing like what a lot of you are going through i just feel a bit lost with this one
thankyou for listening/reading
