If she does not agree to this, you could always seek out individual counselling to receive that emotional support you seek. There is a chance that she is just not capable of giving you the support you need. At that point you'll need to ask yourself if you can live with that.
Excellent advice. Could this be your wife's way of caring? Maybe she is very frightened or uneasy of your condition and this way of having some sense of control over a very scary thing helps her stress.
Thanks for this!
