"Out of the box" options beckon.....
A diagnosis like this must be quite horrific, and it must shatter the mental/emotional box or bubble that you've created: the box of expectations as to how your shared life is likely to continue and develop as you grow older.
So......think outside the box!
There may be amazing, unlikely, special things that you could do together. Things that you might, later on, look back on and say, "wow, you know if this disease hadn't come along, we would have never done that wonderful thing! We would have put it off until it never did happen...."
Send your minds off on tangents....think and plan the unthinkable.....if the intellectual left-brain is a little disabled, tap the resources and desires of the imaginative right-brain.
