Oh no. Not at all. I would marry him again in a heartbeat. This was supposed to be a reflection on how quickly things have gone a bit wrong health-wise - not a complaint because I'm unhappy to be married to him.

I remain very happily married and wouldn't change him for anyone, but obviously, its in both our interests to get him into the best of health, which is why we're doing the raw vegan diet together - as it's got rid of his cancer and seems to be beneficial.

In some ways it's alarming to see age-related health issues crop up. In other ways, it's a little humorous, which I tried to convey.

But I'm still hopeful that we can get his foot fixed and can speed our walks up a bit, as it would be good for his health too.

I think giving up some of his sports during the pandemic has taken more of a toll than we anticipated.
