Scenario 2)
Your husband suffers from a very serious heart condition but won’t take his medicines because the side effects are unpleasant and sometimes physically uncomfortable for him. Without the medicines, the fragile state of his heart makes him susceptible to heart failure at any moment.
I'd shove those pills down his throat!
ReplyDeleteNo, seriously, I would point out to him that his attitude is suicidal, and that he has to choose between life and coping with some side efects. I mean, come on, don't be a wussy. =)

I would convince my husband to take those pills. I would tell him that he has to overcome the side effects so as to continue living. I would advice him to give it a try and tell him that he should be strong and courageous. I would try to do my best so as to help him. Vicky H.
ReplyDeleteInteresting responses! It seems that the poor husband would get little sympathy in this case. Do you know of any real-life similar cases?
ReplyDeleteI would do as much as I could to help him overcome the disease. I would be with him at any time telling him that he has a son who needs him healthy. I know a similar case(a person in one of my friend´s family)Virginia C.
ReplyDeleteI'd try to convice him telling him how important he is for me, for his family and friends but I'd never oblige him to take the pills because I don't know what I'd do if I were in his situation.
