Surviving a traumatic experience as a couple, you'd think you've always got someone to talk to because they KNOW. The reality for me is that I won't run the risk of hitting a trigger for him. I just won't. But he knows anyway.
I was in great pain in the wrong part of my body. I screamed at him for being there. How could I hide it if he was right there? And I apologized for even being in pain. And he held me. He helped me stand and didn't flinch when I twisted his hand. He just gave me love.
