I'm losing my eye sight!?!

I'm losing my eye sight!?

I went to the doctors and said I have an eye disease that's about 12 letters long. It's called Retinites Pigmatosa. My husband was blind in an accident. I'm a mother of triplets age 2 mos. Now I'm pregnant with TWINS! How can I take care of a loving husband, and Our Precious Cargo. David my husband said that we could get hired help. That killed me! I cried myself to sleep and feel worthless. I can't talk to David about this because I would feel like a failure as a wife and mother. David wants to help, but I feel he has too much on his plate from the babies and now me! I feel he won't understand me and how I feel what it's like to run a household and take care of babies plus 2 I'm carrying. I feel so overwhelmed at times where no one out there understand what or how I feel. On top of that I suffer from Post Tramatic Stress Disorder. Any help will be welcomed

Have you asked the doctor about signing up for disability? If you get a representative (doesn't have to be a lawyer), you should be able to get it. I would look into it. I raised 8 + kids with bad eyes... I'm blind in one. You can do it! I know it's frightening and very overwhelming at times, and you do need time for YOU as well. See if there is a support group in your area that would be willing to help. You may be able to find one online. I totally understand where you are!!! Don't give up. And don't think your hubby won't understand! If he's as loving as you say, he would. Keep calm Hon.... It WILL be all right!!!!!

P.S. I looked up the disease here: http://www.blindness.org/disease/treatme...

I also suggest eating a lot of vitamin A foods to slow down the process.... also carrots!!!: http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/5000/55...
