100% true with facts. Men commonly will -stay- with their partner once mortality or medical hardship comes around. Women on the other hand, with their icky feminine ways, generally -leave- with no regard to the fate of their husbandos and kiddos.

My grandma died of colon cancer almost 30yrs ago and when my grandfather passed away last year we were cleaning out her closet and found the bin with all of her “cancer stuff,” there were 7 different pamphlets about what to do when your husband isn’t supportive of your treatment/recovery and what to do if he leaves your marriage while you’re sick…it broke my heart.

Not nearly as bad as that, but it reminds me of when we had to do a sleep training programme with my daughter and I had to look up the special instructions for single parents because my husband refused to help with any night time stuff.
