Hi,

I am too involved with a man with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, he is going to be 31 years old in August. Mark and I met on the Internet three years ago this August, we met up in the September and instantly fell in love with each other, we got engaged in the November and 18 weeks ago we celebrated the birth of our first baby who we called Benjamin. We're really happy together despite one or two fights. Everyone thought I was a gold digger saying why would an able bodied girl want with a disabled guy but I've never loved anybody like Mark, we plan to marry later this year. Mark can not do anything for himself, he has carers but he can use the computer and depends on a ventilator at night. We try to have to have a normal relationship as possible. I thought I was the only one too.
