Thanks for the kind words! And yes, the article was meant to address picking key hires, whether your spouse (main focus of article) or any other person who would play a major role in your business.

Chris, thanks very much for sharing this story with us. It takes a lot of courage, and as someone who has been a caretaker (briefly) for a loved one before, I very much empathize by how difficult it is to run a company while doing laundry/cooking/feeding/bathing/entertaining another person--while at the same time trying to keep it together emotionally.

I hope that you and Kristie stay tenacious. All the best.
