 | Last Sunday, I went to the park near my apartment for a visit. I saw a man support his paralysed wife to practice walking. One pace, two paces, three paces.... They walked several steps and then took a rest. Look at the man's back. Due to the hot weather, his vest was already wet. The man is at his sixties. I don't know when his wife gets paralysed and how long he has supported his wife to practice walking. They have been together for years and I believe that they will never be apart. The best thing in the world is to marry a man like him.  |

| Paralyse doesn't happen to "old" people only. I was active in sports, played pingpong for my department but still had a stroke attack in March 2003 and was bedridden for six months at the University of Malaya Medical Centre. She resigned from her job as a kindergarten teacher as well as took leave from her study just to take care of me. She continued for her Master's degree in 2004 and graduated in the same year. Dear Cherry, not only good to have such a husband, but also for a wife and I am blessed to have such a wife. From 2004 I started going to China on wheelchair for health treatment until I could walk on my feet using crutches and later in 2005 using walking stick. Later, ot lands me more than sixty times to visit China. Wan |

| Wan, I didn't know that you had such an experience. You really have a good wife. I can't imagine how she got through the hard times together with you. How did she finish her Master's degree just in one year? |

| Two years because one year she had to take care of me. She was proud to receive her scroll from the Chancellor of the university after undergoing such a sacrifice. It makes me appreciate her more. Even in my sickness I did help her with some of her assignments especially on information storage and retrieval which was one of my favourite subjects. Wan |

| Wan, I am sure that you two will be selected at the "model couple" in my city if anyone reports your experience. May I know whether you two quarrel with each other?  Who will be the one to make up? |

| Dear Cherry, why should I quarrel? If it brings any benefit to my marriage then it's good to quarrel but if it's not, better don't start anything. I believe everyone's has his/her own opinion which I always respect, thus I should accept differences of ideas. My simple formula of married life is, I may not be able to be like her parents that have taken care of her but by marrying her means I have an extended responsibility that I have taken from her parents: to care, to love besides three basic necessities: shelter, food and clothes. Her paternal parents I believe were from Sanya, Hainan and her mom from Johore (a state in Malaysia). Wan |

| So you never quarreled before? I can't believe it. What do you do when disputes occur? |
