23 Tips For Men on Supporting a Partner with Chronic Pain

Written by Webmaster

Pete Beisner knows a lot about supporting a partner in pain. Here, he shares insights on how to take care of the person you love.

We will be celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary this week, and I can say without a doubt that despite the problems that come with periods of joblessness and raising two kids to maturity, the thing that has had the biggest influence on our marriage has been pain.

Each of the following comments has been made to me at least once since I became ill in 2001.
