I was reading about this woman and she met this guy and they got married like a year after meeting. Well, after only a few months of marriage, he had a stroke and became a vegtable and could only move his eyes. I think he was only like 32 at the time. Well, through a two year journey, she helped him to become somewhat mobile (he's still in a wheelchair currently), learn to walk, and how to write again. At this time, she was like his nurse and wife. During this journey, she became broke becasuse she had lost her job before his stroke and had no insurance. She got pregnant from him and lost the baby. After that, he became depressed and tried to kill himself. A few months later she kicked him out, to live with his parents, telling him if he was just going to give up and die, he could do that somewhere else and she didn't want to see that. They keep in contact, and she thinks they'll get back together and do does he. Months pass and he's once again doing better and not sucidal. He writes her an email to come back, and she says no stating he'll becomne codepent again and she sadly feels he's betters off with out her. Now, this woman is divorced and in debt. He's moved on with his life and much better due to her. Do you think you would have stayed with him as long as she did? Do you think if you were her, you would eventually divorce or still be married? Also, I can't help but feel in the end, she got jipped. Do you also feel this way?

What a shame they started married life in this way.That poor woman actually did very well,having a husband with a stroke,losing her baby was too much for the poor woman.Maybe if they had been married a while before all this happened she might have been able to cope with it all better.Who knows what I could put up with in those terrible circumstances.The fact he wants her back is it because he loves and appreciates her or because he needs someone to look after him as his parents must be a lot older now.I feel sorry for the husband as well he must feel awful,most men think it is their job to look after their family not the other way round,Thank goodness I have never had to deal with this type of life.They both had dreams and hopes for the future together,life just not turn out what you hope for sometimes,a tragic story.

Seem to be like a great story like a hollywood one .but it is quite difficult to answer your question because t depends upon state of our mind to help other and understand others in certain situation
