Episode 089: Chronic Illness And LTR, Communication
Those of us fortunate enough to be in long term relationships are blessed to be saddled with the question - "how do you manage your chronic illness your long term relationship?" Having been with my wife for almost 24 years, I consider myself unbelievably blessed and fortunate to have her on my side. What does "in sickness and in health" mean when it comes early in life? What does that promise mean when it comes to brass tacks? How do we find ways to make it work? For us, that key ingredient is honest, open, transparent communication. It is radical and what has kept us afloat through these hardest times. If I'm willing to tell my best friend but not my partner, why is that? Does that serve me/us?
