People ask me often how do you keep a relationship healthy. I always respond that I wish I had a better answer but the truth is I do not. It takes work! Remaining strong in any relationship is difficult but even more so when you care for a person you love on the Spectrum. The day to day requirements place significant pressure on couples and learning how to balance and keep boundaries when you are required to care for others is an ongoing challenge. My husband and I have been together for 35 years this year. Remaining strong is our unwritten motto!
