Where you stand depends on where you sit. The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior
Just read your book
I just purchased your book and am about half way through. You really cut to the heart of the caregiver nightmare. My husband of 37 years has had progressive ms for the past 15. Our marriage was never very good and I left him a couple of time due to his verbal abuse and occasional physical abuse. But like many abused wives I could not gather the courage to stay out permanently and have a real life for myself. Now I feel I’ve reached your tipping point and can no longer stay in this marriage without losing my health and my sanity. Our marriage was sexless for 20 years before the ms — on top of no longer being in love with him how can I endure this?
I feel guilty and heartsick over leaving him with a disabling condition (he needs canes and a scooter now) — and yet I feel I only have a few years left to redo my life and perhaps find happiness with someone else.
Your book may help me find the courage to remake my life at the age of 57.
