I don't have time to write much right now but just want to say that's such great news!!! That sounds like the best possible outcome. Sometimes it really does take a lot of time to see these results. Hopefully you and your husband will keep moving in the right direction. If I were you I'd be so, so happy. It's admirable that you hung in there and didn't give up. I wish so badly to see the same results with my husband. I hope you keep enjoying all the activities you've been doing with your husband.
One other note - you mentioned health problems after the 'fallout.' That's what's happening to me too. I'm 39 and otherwise healthy, eat well, etc.. I have no risk factors for what I have except, I guess, stress. I hope your problems can be managed or cured and won't stop you from all the excellent progress you made.
