With respect to the heart attack analogy, it doesn't quite fit here. If I were married to a man with a disabling heart condition, his condition would not impair his judgment to the extent that he found it okay to join singles websites, look at porn, gamble away over $25K of our savings (while I was unemployed), fly out of state to drink with some chick all weekend, drive cars titled in both of our names while drunk....The list could go on. These are the things I fear and worse. If I stay, he will always be one drink away from any of these things. The decision of whether to stay or go is based on my desire to have stability, security and, at some point, children. Right now I do not know if these goals are possible with my AH. When I figure that out I will decide what to do.
