Such a beautiful story! I am one who has an amazing SO at my side and he makes me laugh and keeps me happy. I struggle with him going through this with me. It moves me so much to see a man who loves his wife so much... Thanks for sharing this.

I loved the slide show, especially the pink tutu with the blue palm trees! Can't wait to show my SO who also loves the absurd! Thanks for sharing this.

I have a husband that drives me crazy. He is selfish at times, never expresses affection, and is stubborn beyond belief. Yet when I had my excisional biopsy and my breast was too painful to go without a bra, he held my breast up for me after showering while I removed my bra, dried off and put on a dry bra.
After my mastectomies done six months apart, he was the one who cleaned and put gauze around my leaking JP drain line where it exited the skin. He also told me with tears in his eyes that he didn't care if I lost my breasts, he didn't want them, he just wanted me.
He went with me to every oncologist visit, drove me to every chemo and herceptin infusion, and stopped at Carvel on the way home so I could dose myself with a hot fudge sundae.
Now, five years out from all that, whenever he drives me crazy, I remember some men are not good at words, it's their actions that count.

At 7:00 tonight, my dear husband and I will have been married thirty-five years.
One of the hardest things about this cancer battle is to know the pain and anxiety it's causing him.
He is an absolute tower of strength and encouragement. When I'm scared and crying, I almost climb into his shirt with him just to absorb his warmth and comfort. He cooks and cleans while I sleep off my radiation fatigue. He carries an extra handkerchief around so I'll have one when I need it. He rubs lavender-scented lotion into my ugly mastectomy scar, for no other reason than to caress it in a loving, non-medical way.
He has magic words that he speaks a lot..."we will get through this, and you will be ok."
I have been blessed.
