Ana is an Associate Editor who loves animals and food. A good taco and a snuggle with her dogs is all she needs.

When a couple gets married, they make a vow to be there for each other in sickness and in health.

Jrue Holiday, a guard for the New Orleans Pelicans, took this vow very seriously.


When his wife Lauren, a former U.S. women’s soccer star, was diagnosed with a brain tumor, he immediately told the NBA that he needed to leave to take care of his wife. Her health was of the utmost importance to him.

Lauren is 8 months pregnant with their first child. The NBA team is in full sport of Jrue at this time, as they wish for Lauren’s health to improve immediately. They are offering the support of the entire NBA at this time.

If you love supportive husbands like Jrue, you will also love this husband who made it his mission to take care of his wife while she battled dementia.
