@Allelse he has another disease that could weakens his immune system, and he is almost always tired and with the diabetes in the mix i do not know what our future lives will be

MegumiTakani13 · 36-40, F
@Allelse of course...i am not afraid of the hardships the disease will bring, i am scared i'd lose him

@MegumiTakani13 Bloody hell. Mothers!!! I tell you they can be a real bugger. But look you have each other, you love each other. But there is a problem and you're worried about his health, could there be some psychological problems too? With him?

@Allelse could be.

@MegumiTakani13 That's something to consider, but luckily there are some great counselors out there but above all, he has you by his side.

I am trying, i know my mother is just looking out for me, she said she doesn't want me to someday have a sick husband and racists inlaws

@MegumiTakani13 Hahaha! Yeah I wouldn't want that for my daughter either. And its good that you can see from your Mummy's point of view.
