Why wait until she falls down the stairs?

Does it really have to take a terminal disease or a bad bone break to be recognized and appreciated by your spouse? Sometimes. 
Recently a couple were on the brink of divorce, retainers paid to the lawyers house for sale the usual. Until the wife accidentally fell down the steps in their home. First I thought, Uhm, really? Accident?  Soon to be divorced? I read too many crime stories. 
 I would have kept thinking  "accident?" IF the husband didn't come to her aid the way he did. He has been an amazing man, as the wife describes him. While she recovers from a bruised back he has taken care of all the household responsibilities and continue go to work at his job and stay on top of the bills.
Funny, she was doing the same thing, until now, but why does he get the applause? We won't go there.

My point is, that now she is recovering and he is picking up the slack, and loving it, she was always the leader, in control, directing and task leader. But now her husband has experienced for himself his ability without her running the show, He feels purposeful and resourceful. Keeping track of the two kids and maintaining the household. With him feeling better about himself leads to him feeling better about the relationship. Their sex life has also improved, sure she is in pain, so he has to be gentle, but the sex is great, and a little different given the injured needs new positions. He is even initiating the sex. In turn she feels better that she is not the only one who has to run the household and can now rely on him. This makes her feel super good too. go to: www.danagreco.com to learn more about couples treatment.
I can only hope that the lawyer now gives her back her retainer.
