When I moved to CO from the east coast - dryness of the skin and nosebleeds were a big problem for me. It took me years to adjust and it was still common for my nose to bleed every winter. It was like - once I got one, I could count on then happeneing daily for a while. You can get your nose blood vessels cauterized - that could be an option for your husband. Humidifiers will become an essential part of your family.
I never lived in Phoenix, but i had a friend in CO who did and they told me that Phoenix was much more humid than CO (front range).
Dryness is probably my #1 complaint about Colorado.

Maybe you could try coming here for a visit to see how he does? Winter is when I usually notice the dryness the most, so I run a humidifier in my bedroom every night. In July & August we usually start getting afternoon/evening thunderstorms on almost a daily basis. After one of these it is always feels very humid here to me, but I'm probably one of the few who doesn't like the humidity. It causes to many problems with my asthma & allergies.

I also had terrible nose bleeds as a child, so bad that I was brought to the ER twice because of significant blood loss. My body has taken its slow sweet time in adjusting to the dry climate, but it's been worth it! My nose would bleed every day when I first got here, though it'd never last more than 5 minutes. It's disappeared now, though. I agree with Mike from back east - millions live here. If it were that terrible for everyone, why would so many choose to be here?
