Dear Dr. Laura,
I work in a hospital. Today I met a 48-year-old patient and his younger new wife. He told me that he divorced his college sweetheart and wife of 22 years and quickly started dating his employee...then married her. They moved 4 hours away, leaving his 14-year-old daughter with his ex-wife in Dallas. I thought how easily could be me and my husband now of 27 years.
We went through a time two years ago that I thought we would divorce. But we both decided to put a lot of effort into making our marriage better and we are much happier. I know our two teenage sons can see the difference. After talking to that patient, I sent my husband a text telling him what a hunk he is and he sent me a loving reply. Tonight we will go for a walk and have a glass of wine together.
Thank you for all you do, Dr. Laura.
