Saw some posts on D/D about MB members that have died over the years while trying to restore their marriages.<P>Does anyone know who has passed on (died) during the process of restoring their marriage, and how far they made it into restoration before they passed? How did their partner feel, recover, go on whether or not they were the WS/BS/OP?<P>------------------<BR>Semper,<P>Husband2You<BR>*****<BR>Don't make me promises <BR>Baby you never did know how to keep them well <BR>I've had the rest of you <BR>Now I want the best of you <BR>It's time for show and tell<P>'All or Nothing' O-Town

Just something my W said to me the other day. It was a rough weekend on both of us. <P>I'm not asking about suicides.. but I guess that would be included into the final total. Hopefully there haven't ever been any.<P>She and I were talking and it turned morbid.. that if something happened to either of us.. at least we would still be husband and wife up till death do us part.<P>Made us both start weeping.

I've thought about the same thing.<P>I certainly don't know about MB'ers. <P>But my mom and dad were separated when my mom died 28 years ago (I was only 3). She had moved out - just temporarily - figure things out. There was no affair involved - just my dad was a worrier/overprotective/controlling. She had severe stress, took someone else's prescription for headaches, and it killed her. My dad has had to deal with this guilt for all these years. He does pretty well, but I'm sure it's been hard on him. He doesn't talk about it much - I didn't even know the truth of how she died until I was 19.<P>I do think about this. My H left me and I wonder what he would do if something happened to me. I asked him, and he didn't have an answer. If I got hurt or sick, he said he would come help me, but on the "die" question, it just made him think.<p>[This message has been edited by Faith1 (edited August 16, 2001).]

I haven't died yet.<P>For a while, I was afraid I was gonna die, then I was afraid I WASN'T gonna die. But now, I'm afraid I can't possibly live long enough to reap all the benefits of what I've learned.<P>I know this didn't speak to your question, but for me it's an important answer to counteract the aggressively delusional.<P>WAT
