Answer 6

love isnt about s*x only its about non-stop giving, love is what bonds two lovers in their ups and downs as well. i know ill face some hardships like s*x which i consider essential but i just have to give it alittle patience, who knows, maybe that event might not last long and things may get better, cos i believe that as i enjoyed my lovers company when he was well, i also have to endure his new condition with an open heart, having alot of sweet memories that i cherish for him that would definitely feed the missing part .

Answer 7

All things happen for a reason. We would assess what care is best for my spouse and if I can realistically offer it at home. We would go over the options through eye blinks or whatever system we have and would work out a plan for us. And we would go from there ...

Answer 9

Is this a rhetorical question or are you asking for real? When you marry someone, it is for the rest of your life. If you cannot cope with what life may put in your path in marriage, do the spouse a favour - don't marry. Ever.

Consider, if you are able to, how how the person feels who was in the accident? They presumably feel they are a burden now - to their spouse, family, and society in general? If all those things happened to them in an accident at the same time, how do you think they feel about surviving the rest of THEIR life? Just something to think about.

What would I do? Learn sign language right away. Ask a doctor/nurse about home care after the person is released from hospital. If necessary, use savings money to get everything the spouse requires for the most comfort and health (including having a home care professional come in every month to see the progress of the spouse). Take care of that person daily the very best I know how and ask for help whenever I can't manage on my own.
