Things had come to a point where Chris completely neglected her health problems. For instance, the last time Wendy went for a medical checkup, he didn‘t even ask her any questions about it at all. 

The realization made Chris feel a little guilty. 

“I‘ve been busy lately,” he told Wendy, “so I didn‘t have much time to take care of you. I promise things will be different from now.”
