Mr. Meena is a twenty something engineer that spends his days at work and his nights at home taking care of his wife, Ava, and their pet bird, Koopa.  Ava suffers from lupus, chronic pain, and other ailments that make physical activities difficult for her.  Together, Mr. Meena and Ava navigate a husband-wife and a caregiver-recipient relationship dynamic that can be quite challenging at times.  Read Ava's post, On Being Thankful for My Spouse as a Chronic Illness Sufferer, to see some ways that Mr. Meena takes care of her now that chronic illness has joined their marriage.

Meet Peter: caregiver for Sam. She says, "Behind this chronically ill wife is an amazing husband. A husband who has become a full-time carer. A husband who has gone beyond the call of duty. A husband who has become my legs, my cleaner, my cook, my shopper, my gardener, my driver, my nurse." She continues, "Thank you Sweetheart, for all you do, your devotion, care, acceptance of our situation and your unfailing love." Read her post "Thank You Sweetheart" for more of the story and to check out her website and learn of all the work she does for other chronically ill people.
