Hi Magic and Sheila,
thanks for your kind words. I can't speak for what anyone else might do, but for me there was never a moment's doubt what I wanted to do for her.
You are correct, Magic, the 'in sickness and in health' bit was not said lightly by either of us, neither was any of the other stuff in the ceremony. I didn't make those vows to a god, I made them to Jan. How could anyone leave her to get on with it?
Today Jan was less good. Very agitated, and I wrestled with her for an hour as I fed her lunch and she sat in her chair. Two days ago, sweetness, smiles and hugs. You take it as it comes, every day an adventure.
All the best.
P.S. it helps, by the way when those kind words are said!
