My husband and I met when I was a 19-year-old college student from upstate New York and he was a worldly man of 28, with a job, an apartment and a car. We were married a year and a half later. Of course there were rough spots in our long marriage -- job pressures (his), illness (mine), money problems (ours). We got through them, sometimes a little chastened but with our deep need for each other strengthened. Of all the ways that Howard changed me, a shy, studious teenager when we met, the most important was that he made me laugh. Then one morning in January 1990, 34 years into our marriage, we were traveling on an icy road. The car skidded, hit a guardrail and turned over and over, plunging down an embankment. I was physically uninjured, but he was in a deep coma from a devastating brain-stem injury. Over the next months and years he regained some cognitive function but was unable to do anything for himself. Caring for him at home required an enormous managerial effort, the assistance of strong, patient home-care aides and, not incidentally, a lot of money. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
