[quote=Anonymous]Fear, latent selfishness, latent resentment, etc., can make some cancer victims harder to live with than others. For example, if someone's got the energy to do the adult version of Make-A-Wish but can't even pick up something off the floor or wipe their own butt, I can see that getting old for the healthy/caretaking spouse really fast, especially if the ill spouse wasn't all that easy to live with before coming down with cancer. On the other hand, some healthy spouses just don't want to put in extra work. So their fear, latent selfishness, etc., comes to the surface and they bail at the first sign of trouble. [/quote]
