Kudos for being there for your hubby, frustrating though it is!

You two see the same counsellor? Maybe you could talk to him/her?

My thought - don't tell him it's a waste of time. Let him just send whatever he wants, to break the paralysis...he'll find out the 'reality', and heck, who knows? One of the higher-up jobs just might come through!

Let go and let God.
