Yes. And someone, a good friend of mine, said how good it is that I have those "good" days to look back on, that they can give me hope, that my husband is still in there. And then she asked me to imagine if I were a woman who didn't have those good days to look back on, to imagine if he had been like this through our entire marriage....
I would not have married him if he were the man he is today. But then...the man he is today could have very well had me fooled. Just as he does now.
