My DH would eat soup (and has many times) straight from the can if there isn't someone here to heat it for him. He does the dishes and mows the yard. He also works on my car and does things like brake jobs/oil changes/general maintenance. But he takes it to my brother's house and they do it together. My brother has a huge hydraulic car lift so DH doesn't have to bend. His back doesn't do that well since there's a metal ladder holding his spine together. I've tasted his cooking, seen his laundry and cleaning methods. I'll do the rest myself, thank you. In the almost 16 yrs we've been married he's never cleaned a toilet, sink or bathtub, swept, mopped or vacuumed a floor, changed and/or made a bed, sorted laundry, dusted or washed a window.
