Yet another terrific post, Danny. Your words about Sharon are gorgeous, the love just shines through. Anyone would be delighted to be so loved.

The health stuff really resonates, watching Tim learn to accept that he just can't do what he used to be able to do. He went through a stage where he found it really hard to accept, and he took a lot of his frustrations out on me. However, once he got to the point where he was able to start taking control of his health and his destiny, and discovered croquet, things improved. He'll never be what most call well, but he's accepted it. I go through periods where I still get really pissed about what was taken from us both because of it, I think nowadays I have more a problem with it than he does.
