My ex husband knew a married couple up in Minnesota before he moved here to Nevada. He described the woman as sickly, always in and out of the doctors office. He said she probably wouldn't last long and existed on pills. A year later the husband died suddenly. The following summer we drove up there and found her the picture of health. She said her health began to improve a week after they dropped him into the hole and she was off all medication within a month. Its 11 years later and she has vacationed every year to some more exotic place and is said to be the bell of the ball wherever she goes. I asked her once will she ever marry again? She laughed and said NOPE, had that disease already and was cured.....So you see stress is really a killer and no bad marriage is worth that....
