In Oct. of 2002, I was in a rollover accident while driving truck, I worked on a custom combining crew and had a rollover. Injured my back pretty bad, but since have recovered and am back working again. But during the time after my accident, I had alot of pain and stiffness in my back, so bad that I couldn't even sit up to get out of bed, and my wife helped pull me up to sitting and even helped me to stand up to get out of bed, also helped me to get up out of chairs sometimes as well. I felt really bad like I was like a baby and couldn't do anything for myself, but it really meant alot to me, because she did it and didn't complain about it. She was very loving and supportive and tried very hard to help me to be as comfortable as possible.
Just curious to see what special things your spouse has done for you that you will remember.

The most special thing my husband has done for me is...this my sound crazy but here goes...he made me let him help me take care of my children. I have a 9 yr. old son & a 7 yr. old daughter. I have been a single parent from the get go. I worked & took care of my children by myself. When my mother was alive, she helped by buying clothes & thing like that when they were babies. I never asked her to keep them except when I went to buy Christmas presents. My babies were my responsibility & no one elses. Anyway, when I first met him, he wanted to meet my children, I said no way. I guess I was trying to keep them protected. But, he has made me understand that he can help me be responsible for them. My children usually go with me places or do what ever I do because I go no where & do nothing that my children can't do. He has help me to open my eyes that he will help me take care of them & he loves them very much.

I first met the man that I married 25 years ago when I was 13. I knew that someday I would marry him but we both kinda went in different directions in our lives. I met someone but really wasn't in-love but I got pregnant. I had only been a new mother for 2 months when I saw my first love again and I had to tell him that now I was a mother. i was 19 at this time and didn't have a clue what I was going to do next except for I had a responsibility to take care of this baby that I loved so much. That night I told him and he asked me to marry him....I said yes...because I had always loved him. As soon as we were married he wanted to adopt my son. that was the kindest gesture that let me know how much he loved me and my son. We have been married for a long time and also had another child. Both our children are grown now and both married and we are about to be grandparents. So to sum it up I would say that just being the man that he was and is has to be the greatest thing he could have done for me.

It sounds small, but it is so appreciated.
He is retired and I still go off to work everyday. He gets up with me every morning and makes me a cup of tea while I get ready - perfect and just the way I like it with sugar and milk. He tells me that I look sharp and kisses me and wishes me a good day.
He calls me at 11:00 to wish me happy 11:00 and see how my day is going.
When I get home there is a cup of tea and a hot bubble bath waiting for me with candles and whatever book I'm currently reading. He leaves me alone for an hour or so to unwind and then has dinner for me when I get out. The whole rest of the evening is usually dedicated to making me happy and content.
These sweet things have gone on every day for as long as I've known him and are one of the reasons why I love him so! He reads my moods and my mind and always seems to know the right thing to do or say to make me feel good. We never ever argue and, in fact, have never even had a disagreement. He's just the best man in the whole world!

I had a serious illness shortly after my now husband and I started dating. I had to take what I refer to as mini-chemo, so I was irritable, tired, sick, and just not always fun to be around. The man stood by my side and took care of me. He proposed to me a few months prior to my completing my medication, and before he knew that I was cured. We married six months later. He is the most caring, giving, loving man I have ever known. I thank the Lord for him all the time!

One night, I walked into our bedroom and found a rose on my pillow. It was so sweet. There's so many more that stick out but I'd be here all day. I guess when you really love someone, you can't help but want to make them smile and just be there for them. Sounds like you have a wonderful wife and marriage!

my boyfriend does alot of things that are special but the thing that sticks in my mind most is about a year after i moved in with him I started having my migraines again realy bad and one day we were just waking up and i had been awake earlier but i laid there with him anyway and the migraine just got worse.. I got up for a little bit and came down on the computer and took so tylenol and stuff that i always take to see if it would clear up or if it was a true migraine that wasn't going anywhere, anyway.. after about an hour or so I decided to go back to bed since he was still in bed, soon after that i was laying there literaly holding my head to try to get it to stop and just rocking.. well it sorta woke him up unintentionaly since hes always sensitive as to what i'm doing when i move around in bed, anyway.. he held me and we talked about where it hurt and after a little bit he got up and put on clothes and came downstairs, i figured he was just getting up so i tried to go back to sleep, a few minutes later he comes back up with some strong pain pills that he still had from his late wife and told me to take two of them so i could sleep it off since the only way to realy get rid of a migraine is to relax and sleep is the best way to do that.. well he stayed with me for a while but they didnt put me to sleep completely, i would be semi conscious of everythign going on, i could hear but didn't want to open my eyes, i did get about an hour or two sleep at a time and he told me that if it didnt' ease up that i could take one more pill every 6 hrs.. he came back downstairs and left me sleep literaly all day but still sent someone upstairs to check on me every now and then.. I will never forget that because it was the only time in my life anyone ever tried to help me ease the pain of my migraines.. my exhusband just used to ***** about me moping around and not being able to take care of the kids during them but he didnt realize he was usualy the cause of the migraines back then and my boyfriend isn't the cause of them we still don't know for the most part what causes them but as soon as we notice one starting he does what he can even if its telling me i told you so not to eat that chocolate last night.. lol :)
