Today is Barrett's birthday (Yes, I call my husband by his last name; have since we met).
You know, every once in a while, you meet someone who changes your life FOREVER!!!
There is a big difference between being friends with someone who is disabled and being married to someone who is disabled; especially when that person has a mental illness., also.
They willing take on a responsibility that abled-bodied couples don't assume.
Barrett took this on whole heartily He loved me even when I thought I would never experience a love like that.
While the physical aspect of a disability is taunting in itself, when you add a mental illness to the mix, it's a whole new ball game.
And he has stuck by me through everything; even though I know there are days, hours, even minutes where he wants to walk away, forever.
But, he hasn't.
That's true love. I am so thankful he loves and stand by me.
