Title: Divorce: Higher when one partner is sick?
Tags:
Blog Entry: I was reading an article from the New York Times... It was more likely a married men would divorce their wife if she had cancer than if he was sick, she would still be with him. It was in an interesting read. Last night I was watching "Brothers & Sisters" on ABC (USA) and the senator's wife had cancer. Her fear was that he would not think she is beautiful anymore being bald. She was telling her mother that he was all over her sexually and she thought it was because of her new wig. So, she waited on night in her bedroom not wearing the hair... what was amazing is that he reassured her that he loved her and it wasn't because of her hair or no hair. It was because he loved her more than anything. I thought that was very sweet! Almost made me cry. haha. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/12/men-more-likely-to-leave-spouse-with-cancer/
