Sickness and Health
As I mentioned a few times I have a pretty serious heart condition I was born with. My clinic had meet and greet night on Wednesday and it was an awesome night to just to get to know other people who go through similar things as you. This one girl told a story about how her husband divorced her after he heard she had to have other OHS. I just sat there and cried but also thinking about how lucky I was. In fact, my doctor actually called my H out and the room clapped for him because she said he was one of the most supportive spouses she has seen, apparently its pretty common for people's spouses to not be able to handle?! I was sicken just because isn't that in the vows?!

Re: Sickness and Health
I'm so sad for that girl but so happy for you & your H!
I feel like they must not have had a very strong marriage to begin with. *knocks on wood* I can't imagine leaving H over a medical issue. He's my rock and the one person I want by my side when the sh*t hits the fan. I would never want to go through something like that without him.
I'm super glad your H is so amazing because a support system is such a big thing when you have life long medical issues. H has been such an incredible support system for me no matter what I need him for that I couldn't imagine going through anything major and him not being there. Glad we all have good men in our lives.
H and I have been through a few health issues both before and after the wedding. I wound up having an emergent cardiac cath and ablation for an SVT that they couldn't convert 3 months before the wedding. If he didn't turn tail and run then, I'm pretty sure he'll stick around. He was always super supportive and amazing.
I feel that as a society these days we are too quick to dispose of things that are not the way we want them and unfortunately that includes marriages. (This is a generalization, not saying "we" as in all you super awesome ladies.)
You are blessed with a wonderful man who obviously loves you to the depths of his soul.
I couldn't imagine leaving h cause he was sick, or vice versa.
Glad you have a great hubby, and I do feel bad for that poor girl.
