Living with someone who has a serious medical condition can be a challenge. This book reflects on one such case, that of a sixteen-year love relationship in which one of the partners suffers from multiple sclerosis (MS), a potentially debilitating disease. Over the years, the sickness takes its toll, gradually changing one partner from independent to dependent, and the other from lover to caregiver. The emotional difficulties the couple endures are understandable to anyone who has experienced such a relationship.
