We all know Chuck Norris for being a movie legend, a star, and a martial arts expert, but perhaps his most admirable of jobs was when he gave up his entire career to be beside his sick wife. It was a challenging time — a moment when he couldn’t take charge of the situation — but he had to do something, even if it seemed impossible.
Chuck and Gena Norris met in 1997 just after they completed a small role in a TV series. He grew very interested in Gena so he decided to invite her to Dallas Texas where they could spend some quality time together.
Soon after, their friendship grew into a romantic relationship, and they actually got married the next year in 1998. Even though there is a 23-year difference between them, they have proven that years don’t matter when it comes to love, especially when Chuck decided to say goodbye to his career and stay beside his sick wife.
In 2013, when his wife had to do a few MRIs (magnetic resonance imagining) scans, she had to do contrast imaging, which requires receiving an injection of a type of dye, which serves as the “contrast agent.” This highlights tissues, blood vessels, and organs so that the radiologist can find out the extent of an injury or disease.
