Carry On, yes, that's an option. We both waive rights to spousal support. This was discussed as an option. My attorneys all felt strongly it would be a bad idea for me to waive mine in light of my 15 year work gap.
Still, I threw it onto the table during negotiation, and AH rejected it, which stunned attorneys on both sides. AH views me as his "insurance policy." I'm trying so hard to disentangle and detach and let him face his consequences, yet I'm legally put in a position of being an enabler. It's crazy-making!
We're now working on some language which keeps spousal support rights in place on both sides, but limits his ability to claim if his health issue is the possible result of long term alcohol abuse. We shall see if he buys it. I seriously doubt it.
