Said don’t be proud. Hopefully you have a wheelchair that you can use for this occasion. You matter to your partner or he wouldn’t be with you. Pain messes with your head whether it’s physical or emotional. Your voice is good and important right now, try for one minute , one hour, one day and go from there. For what little good it will do I am hoping things get better for you and your husband.
