I completely feel your pain Amanda. My husband and I would go on a trip every year for our anniversary. We got married last year, and Lou was diagnosed 3 weeks before our wedding.

We haven't had our honeymoon yet, and we are just starting to plan other things out of the house. I know that remission is now a pipe dream, and I've accepted that. However, sometimes I feel like I would do anything to get him regulated. Ultimately it just takes time to get used to the whole process and accept that things are different. Even so, I've had plenty of times where I've just broken down wondering if I shouldn't just put him to sleep because he can't be happy like this... And then my sweet boy jumps on the couch and cuddles with me, or gives me one of his patented head bonks, and I know we're doing the right thing.
We are right there with you and your BF. Our 1st wedding anniversary (7th as a couple) is on Sunday and we've decided to do a staycation with a day trip to the casino and fun attractions around town instead of a day or two away at a B&B. We have a mini family reunion in August and I'm starting to look into options for a pet sitter or bring him with us so we can go and not worry. We are working up to that honeymoon, one way or another! Also I think we both had our kitties tested for those high dose conditions on the same day, so hopefully we'll both find out by Friday!
Many hugs!
