[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder what the rate is when dividing the chronic illnesses into ones that existed before marriage and ones diagnosed after marriage. I have a congenital physical disability/ chronic illness, its permanent. My DH knew in early stages of dating I had this, we've been together 20 years. I no longer can work a regular office job. But I don't think my condition gets in the way. It's our normal. I would expect the divorce rate to be higher for conditions that were diagnosed after the wedding, because "this isn't what I signed up for", etc. [/quote] 09:29 here. When DH and I married, I knew that he had MS - but he was much more functional than he is now. Neither of us expected him to decline so much, so fast. We all sign up for this (potentially) when we marry, but no one knows how hard it is until s/he is actually in the day to day routine of it. It is exhausting and depressing and infuriating.[/quote]
