What Do You Do When Illness Makes Sex Impossible?


What do you do when your partner is no longer interested in or capable of sexual intimacy with you?

Illness takes many tolls, on both partners. One of them is too often sexual intimacy. Medications, pain, and exhaustion can not only turn a libido off, but it can also make intercourse painful for the ill partner. The well partner may be just too drained after a long day of caretaking, working, caring for the kids, and running the household to want anything more intimate than falling asleep side-by-side. And the shift illness produces in some partner relationship -- turning a bond of equals into one of caretaker - patient -- can make sex feel like a taboo.

For some couples, their sexual connection had always been a source of joy that filtered into the rest of the relationship, making it glow. For other couples, sex was routine and its effects remained in the bedroom. For others, sex was never a strong part of the connection.

Whatever your pre-illness sexual habits were, illness too often disturbs them. Intercourse may no longer be possible. Even touching can be problematic. Some couples whose sexual experiences were mainly physical, now find they actually have to talk about what feels good and what doesn't.

Through talking about sex, couples may find themselves entering surprisingly deeper levels of connection, and describing desires that before illness were invisible.

Some couples find ways of being intimate without intercourse. Some are able to stay connected without any form of physical intimacy. Some break apart. Some partners seek sex outside of the relationship, with or without the knowledge of their partner. (note: for the sake of safety and integrity, I would recommend that this be discussed between the partners).

I'm interested in hearing about your situation. Has your sexual relationship changed? How have you managed to deal with illness and physical intimacy?

Live long and prosper.

Live long and prosper the natural healthy way. So what are the golden rules to living a long life. Well I would say first, Don't smoke. Smoking will reduce  the amount of time that you live. Keep alcohol to a minimum. Eat a varied diet, and don't eat too much. When eating make sure you include lots of fruit and vegetables. Make sure you have a breakfast as this is the most important meal of the day. Take a good quality multi vitamin and mineral tablet each day. Exercise every day, you may be a member of the gym. If you are then that is great if not then you will have to make sure you walk quickly for at least 30 minutes per day. Enough to bring yourself to a sweat. Follow this guideline every day and you should live long and prosper.


I would just like you to know that I don't practice what I preach. Yes I don't smoke, but I do drink alcohol, more than I should. I don't have enough fruit. I have to force myself to eat it. I like vegetables, but don't get enough. I eat the wrong foods, I know, and I don't exercise enough. I do walk every day, but not enough. I would think what I do is about average, with all my readers, am I right?. Please feel free to comment, I would love to hear from you.

Old remedy new cures

Sugar is used in African countries as a natural cure for wounds, leg sores and leg ulcers. The sugar is sprinkled on to the wound and this draws all the moisture out. Bacteria needs water to be able to survive, and because there is no moisture  the wound heals. 


A six month study has been done at Selly Oak hospital in Birmingham involving 21 patients whose wound had not responded to conventional treatment. The study showed that sprinkling sugar on to the wound kills the bacteria that prevents healing. It is said that the natural treatment of sugar could save the NHS billions of pounds.


You may know an older person who has a leg wound, or leg ulcer that just will not heal, this can cause considerable pain. Try sprinkling a little sugar to the wound along with vitamin c supplement 1-3 grams per day taken orally and see if this provides relief from the condition. Please feel free to comment on this.

When You Feel Your Partner's Pain


This is a guest post written by Patricia Walling. It is a fascinating topic. Enjoy!

We often feel like when we really love someone we can feel their pain, and their suffering affects us greatly. Usually we explain this to ourselves as being the result of really caring about the one we love, and that it's completely a matter of the heart, but that may not be entirely the case. A recent study done at Monash University in Australia by Bernadette Fitzgibbon and some of her colleagues reveals that some people not only empathize with the pain of others, but can also feel it themselves. The study was done by using electroencephalography to monitor the brainwaves of amputees observing images of other people’s hands and feet in potentially painful situations. As it turns out, even if they don't normally feel phantom pain in their amputated limbs, amputees will actually feel real pain if they see others in pain or about to be in pain. This effect is called synaesthetic pain, which comes from the Greek syn-, together, and aisthe-, to feel or perceive.

Fitzgibbon and others propose that amputees are more able to feel synaesthetic pain in these instances due to a pain hypersensitivity, owing to the traumatic event of losing a limb. When we are threatened, our minds go into overdrive and are hypervigilant to pain anyway, and this is even more pronounced for those who have experienced such traumatic pain. This is much like when you are waiting to get a shot at the doctor's office, and the anticipation the pain of getting stuck with a needle is that much worse than if it happened randomly. Yet while you're waiting for the office to write up your bill and you watch someone else get a shot, something called our mirror neurons are also at work, making us wince when they stick them. These are the parts of our brain that allow us to “feel” the emotions of others, and enjoy drama in the theater.

However, that we can feel the suffering of others as though it were our own is nothing new to committed couples. Once my partner cut his hand wide open while cooking, and I could hardly look at it to bind it because it felt as though my own hand were cut open. In the past, I explained this experience as a result of our closeness, and that it was nothing to worry about. But with this new knowledge in mind, it is important to remember that when our partners are hurting, we hurt too. It can be easy to write it off as heartache and continue caring for them as much as we can, but we can end up hurting just as much, literally. Whether you're a full time caregiver or just helping your partner get through a nasty cold, it is important to remember that you also need to take care of yourself.
