A husband feels able to support his wife through the menopause, now he has learned more about it.
Neil Lawson says he is much more aware of the menopause with his second wife Catherine
"But with Catherine, I'm much more aware that this train is coming and we're much better at communication than ever before," says Neil.Neil says no matter how much men learn or read about the menopause "you have no clue what is really going on" "One of the things that upsets me most is that there's nothing practical I can do. I don't know how Catherine is going to feel, I desperately want to do something but I can't.Massage therapist Catherine always tells him when she wakes up and "feels completely rubbish", he says."I make her cups of tea if that's what she needs or I'll just hug her; all I can do is be OK with her not being OK," he says.
His advice to other couples is to talk about it and for women to express themselves to their partners.
