When Kolette Hall married her husband Jason, they believed that as his wife she should be in charge of all his care. But caring for anyone full time can be overwhelming and especially when it is your quadraplegic husband. When an accident five years into their marriage brought to light the burden of being Jason’s sole caregiver, things needed to change for their marriage to survive. Fortunately Kolette had her own advocates in Jason’s parents and they rallied around her to set up extra support and boundaries so that she could be Jason’s wife and learn to love him in that way as well as love herself again. 
At some point in all of our lives we will be caregivers, whether that is for children, a spouse, or aging parents. In any scenario it is imperative to make sure that the caregiver is getting the help and support they need to be successful. Kolette’s journey is one from experience and she has a lot of good advice for anyone going through a similar situation.
