I wonder if your husband feels less of a man due to his diagnosis and by having sex with someone else with the same illness he felt it was somehow a level playing field.
Not that its an excuse in any way shape and form for his behavior, because it isn't. Your husband needs counseling. He obviously is not happy but I reckon its with himself. I know that feeling. When your own body lets you down there is a massive sense of betrayal....of yourself. I dont know if marriages can survive this - in my experience it takes a lot of work and will. Only you will know if you have enough love left for that. Being sick can be a REASON for bad behavior but it is never, ever, an EXCUSE.
