Wow, what a terrible thing to happen to them, but what a testimony to the power of love and how true love and working to keep it is what binds people forever. My husband and I have been married for almost ten years, and I would say about five of those were rocky as far as sex, because when I was pregnant with our first child, I was so sick and in and out of the hospital, and it took almost two years to recover from the pregnancy- it really screwed up my health and hormones. Then we had a few great years of sex, and then I got pregnant again. The second pregnancy destroyed my pelvic floor and bladder. I had to have two reconstructive surgeries. Even though physically I was capable of sex, I didn't want to because I was so emotionally devastated and I didn't feel like a whole woman. I didn't want to have sex, I didn't want him to look at me. He was lucky to have sex about every eight weeks, and when we did, it was fast and not fun. Looking back, I don't know how he managed it, or how awful it must have been for him, but he never made me feel bad or guilty about it- he just continued to love me. Fortunately, my surgeries were successful, and I feel great now- my gynecologist fixed me up and it's like I never had babies- pretty awesome! My sex drive is back and life is great now, but that could all change in a heartbeat. One of us could get sick or be in a terrible accident, so we cherish each day. If something were to happen to him, I'd still be there, no matter what. Our physical health is a gift that none of us should take for granted.
