No absolutely not!! You need to be there for your husband. What good would it do him to be under the stress of a divorce? You dont sound like you really love him. You need to get him the medical treatment he needs

Might be suffering from heart problems???? I'd want to know the truth, the whole truth, and what needs to be done to fix it. And then I'd do my best to make it happen, find a way to meet the costs. Loving someone means looking after their best interests. If I just stepped aside and he died, I think guilt and regret would haunt me for a very long time.

Um my first question is why did you marry him in the first place if your just leaving him in his time of need? Frankly, that part of the vows that says "in sickness and health" yeah means you stick it out when things get ruff. Treasure every moment you have with him. I just found out my husband of a year is having heart problems - I'm not going anywhere. Be strong and support him - your children need to see him and have good memories of him. Definitely dont divorce him becuase he's sick.

Oh, PUHLEESE! I can't believe this question is serious!
When you took your vows, did they include IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH...well, guess what, it's time to pay the piper.
What you do is stick with him in his time of need. Do what you can to help him live as long as possible while taking care of all the things that you need to take care of (kids, house, etc.).
A very good friend of mine in another state was given six months to live eight years ago. She's a walking miracle. She really is in the last stages of her disease now & will likely die within weeks. Her husband has stuck with her through it all. She has gone through cycles where she is doing fine and cycles where she is hospitalized. She's been through surgeries and being on bed rest.
Right now, she's on bedrest (probably until the end). He commutes three hours a day. He works eight hours a day. He comes home and cooks a meal, cleans up, takes care of her and works on household projects in all his vast amounts of free time. He's faithful and loves her dearly and that, my friend, is what marriage is about!
It's bad to be a fair weather friend...it's worse to be a fair weather spouse!

Why would divorce even be a consideration in this matter? Don't even think of denying your children the right to spend this time with their dad...no matter how selfish you are.
Some people just don't think!!

Me? No I'm just not that selfish. The thought of divorce wouldn't even have occured to me.

I would support him, help him, make sure that he is taking care of himself, going to the doctor, taking the right medications, eating healthy.

Heavens no! I love my husband. Remember the part in your vows...."In sickness and in health"? Don't you have a life insurance policy on him?

You have a very beautiful mind!
While you are at it, inheriting would be more profitable for your own you, but be aware it is not legal to kill him.

Does the phrase "for better or worse" ring any bells for you?
