On Having a Supportive Husband

I am so excited about this thread! My friends roll their eyes when I brag about my hubby. I was bragging on him at work and a co-worker told another person that she thought I was full of it because no man is like that unless he wants something or has done something wrong. Well mine is.

David sends me texts everyday, several times a day, saying "hey beautiful I love you" or "I love my baby". He is my best friend and my partner in everything. When I think of how I tried so hard to run him off at first, I just want to slap myself. He is younger than me and had never been married, never had kids and I had three boys and an ex. What I considered too much baggage to lay on him. I was afraid he would feel resentful later if he took on me and mine. He told me to quit making decisions for him and let him into my world. I can't imagine not having him in my life. God sent him to me I know. He was my saving grace and my answer to prayer. It's funny how you can pray for something for so long and when it comes you don't recognize it. Silly me!

I'm glad I finally woke up and smelled the coffee. We have been together for 7 years now. I couldn't have gone through the dx of my son without David there to hold me up. He really understands his role as a husband and a father. So many men today do not! It takes a special man to take another man's children and raise them as his own. David is a very special man.

Wow, you guys are all so blessed. My first husband was like yours, but God had different plans for me--Tom is up in heaven waiting for me...

Beautiful post lightNlife - your hubby is a winner and you are one lucky lady to have such a great support partner! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

I'm probably one of the few that can say I've been on both sides of supportive husbands. I was 25, had 2 babies and married when I was dx. My 1st husband didn't know how to deal with the dx, drifted away from me as I struggled myself with new dx and treatment. After 8 more years of denial and his inability to come to terms with my CF, he left me and our 2 kids for a 'healthier woman version'. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif" border="0">

After 5 years of single parenthood, when I least expected, in walks my dear husband Terry. I told him of my CF after our 2nd date thinking it would scare him away. Well it didn't, he said we would take it a day at a time, deal with whatever happens, dated 2 years and now we've been married 15 years! <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0"> Not only did he take on me & my CF but also my 2 teens to blend with his teen son - what a guy!

So yes, saintly men do exist and I have one to prove it! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

He has especially learned a lot from this disease since being married to me oh pretty much 6 years August 4th is our 6 year ann. I too have learned alot about it too. I too think he will be a wonderful father as well.
