Your husband's ex-wife needs a book on crohn's to understand about the disease. It took me a long time to understand that I could no longer work with all the problems I was having. I had to file for disablility. Your husband may have to take his ex-wife back to court to reduce his child support. I know that he is like most men he wants to support his children, but there is a time that you have to understand they your body will not let you work like you once could. I had to go to counciling to get to understand that, because I worked 50 to 60 hours a week and enjoyed every minute. So think about educating his ex-wife and going back to court to reduce child support. He isn't lazy he is dealing with something bigger than you or her and it isn't a easy thing to live with. I fight daily with not being able to work. I haven't worked in almost three years. I am working on my disablility. So tell your husband to pick his head up and be glad he is still able to work. Don't let what other people say get you down, I did and it hurts and you are your worse enemy.
