Michael, I just wanted you to know how wonderful I think you are for sticking by Monica and taking care of her with your love and support. IC is such a horrible thing we have to go through, but when we know that there is someone we can talk to and cry with, it just makes our day go by so much better. I am 21 yrs. old and have had IC for 1 year. I am so worried that no man will ever want to take on the challenge of loving someone with a chronic illnes. You have given me hope that there are men that will stick by and love someone no matter if they have IC or not. You deserve an award for being such a wonderful husband and father. Keep us posted and let us know how everything is going.

Hugs,
Alisha
