"In sickness and in health"...I did take that vow & I promised that no matter what - I would be there, but I must say, in total honesty, that after 25 years of one "major sickness" after another, I can hardly handle it any longer. My S.O. is ALWAYS sick! If I had known that I was marrying a hypocondriac I would have walked (no, RUN) the other way from the alter. Seriously. I used to love him with my entire heart, but it's become a neurosis that I can't handle any more and I am beyond the place of feeling guilty any longer.
Oh - Geez...What to do?
I am slowly moving toward a place of peace & non-involvement. The entire situation has drained every ounce of life & creativity out of me.
I don't even feel guilty about being totally numb any more.
