   Hi Chris, yes I think that alot of relationships breakdown with 
disabilities. I think for the most part when it is the woman it hurts 
more in a one-on-one relationship that fails. We still perceive women as 
care givers in this country and when the "care giver' is disAbled it 
tends to throw the other off kilter. I find it ironic that I have 
problems with my family and not with male companions. Even my ex and I 
didn't break up over my disability. It kind of puts a cabash to the old 
axiom that home is the place that you can go when nobody else will take 
you.
