If you were unwell enough to go to bed maybe once every four years….how would your husband cope ? Treat you? Asking for a friend 🫣

He would capably sort everything withoit complaining in the slightest. He wouldn't find it stressful, and he'd be sympathetic.

I generally get a begrudging offering of food and fluid …. A stressed house as he snaps at everyone and get up to a hell hole of a mess with the bare bones done

He'd look after the kids, make me a brew, check on me etc. He'd probably whinge about how knackered he was but he'd do it no question 🤣

He'd cope really well, we are equal partners who support each other and step up when the other is ill and take care of each other too.

My husband is a much better nurse than I am.
He's really kind and caring. I deliver one cup of tea and leave him to it.
