For Better OR Worse

I don't think I say enough how wonderful my sweet, sweet husband is. Several people have asked me if James is taking good care of me throughout this whole process...I'm being totally honest when I say he is!!! I have met very few men as caring and loving as my husband and I feel truly blessed to have him in my life. Although he may not always know the "perfect" thing to say, he simply does enough just by being here by my side. He has held my hand when I've been scared, sat and listened when I complained, hugged me tight when I couldn't stop crying, made me laugh when there was nothing left to say or do, and done the "unmentionable" pre-op involved. He has offered (& been willing) to take me to the ER numerous times in the middle of the night when the pain just didn't seem bearable (or normal for that matter). He has waited on me hand and foot while I've recovered from my surgery, getting up at 5am simply to fix me breakfast so I could take my pain medications. And when he brings me food in bed, he always places a single flower on my tray that never ceases to make me smile. And while doing ALL of this, I have not heard him complain ONCE!

James is the perfect example of a husband who has kept his vows of "for better or worse." I'm sure he did not realize that we might see a lot more "worse" so early on in our marriage, but he has stayed strong through it all and never given up hope. Even knowing that our future might not be exactly the one we mapped out in the beginning, he has remained steadfast by my side. I sometimes forget to ask him how he's doing with all of this...I sometimes forget that it affects his life too.

I do not know where I would be in life without my AMAZING husband, my very best friend! He is my rock, my love, my LIFE! I love you honey with ALL of my heart!
