For Better or Worse -- Before making a promise, ignore the sweet dreams and consider nature’s rotten apples instead.

It was a job that most couples never realize they agreed to.
They’d been married for only a few months, when one partner said she wasn’t feeling well of late.  A few days later she woke up one morning with fever and chills. He tried to console her and performed the usual ritual of bringing aspirin and liquids.  However, it wasn’t long before he realized things were more serious than either of them initially thought.
As time passed, he realized things were likely not to improve….  At least not in the near future. 
He remembered that vow of “for better or worse” he had taken just several weeks prior… when most would now be enjoying those sweet dreams of their relationship…. “are such good times gone forever between us?” … he asked himself 
As each day slowly passed by, his strength diminished. Bills were piling up, she wasn’t working any more, and everything was falling on HIS shoulders…..
He was reaching His breaking point----burnt out and ready to throw in the proverbial towel.
