[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, there's some truly disgusting responses in this thread. Between the person saying it is the sick spouses responsibility to limit the stress of their illness on the relationship and the person critical of their wife with stage 4 cancer, those responses say enough about the type of people responding to this thread.

My wife has a chronic illness and I knew early on in the relationship about it and I still knew that she was the one who I would marry. I loved everything about her. As an able bodied person, yes it took some learning to understand her illness and what she could and could not do. But I made sure to learn because I loved her and I would do anything for her. If you truly love someone, you do not let an illness stop that. You stand with your spouse and fight alongside of them because you are in this together. Sometimes that means taking on extra responsibilities. But you do that because of the love and bond you share in the relationship. [/quote]

The PP whose wife had stage IV cancer was not at all critical of her. He spoke only tenderly and said that their love has deepened. He merely acknowledged that it's been very hard. [/quote]
