To Bruce, With Love
Listen to the music I can't remember when you weren't there Through the years I can't remember what I used to do Through the years Through the years Through the years September 1, 2000
Dear Bruce,
I know sometimes you feel guilty for all that we've had to go through because of the lymphoma. I would rather live a lifetime with you having cancer though, than to spend one day apart from you. You are my husband, my lover, my best friend, my provider, my confidante, the father of my children, and the grandfather of my grandchildren. You are my life, my reason for smiling, my reason for living.
We're suffering from a little set-back right now, but together we are strong. I don't have any doubt, together we'll work this out. As long as it's okay, I'll stay with you, through many more years!
I love you honey!!!
With all my love, January 8, 2004
Dear Bruce,
Well, here we are again. We're now facing our 4th go-around with NHL. It's hard to believe that next month it'll be 18 years since we first heard those words "non-hodgkin's lymphoma", and learned what they meant.
When the doctor told me you could die within a month, and at most you probably only had 2 years, what I would have given to have known that we'd have 18 years ahead of us! They've flown by much too quickly though, and I selfishly want at least another 18 years with you by my side!
I came here tonight, to update my message to you. As I read the message I wrote the last time though, I realize there's nothing new to add. I still feel the same way ~ you are still my life, my reason for smiling, my reason for living.
We're suffering from a little set-back right now, but together we are strong. I don't have any doubt, together we'll work this out. As long as it's okay, I'll stay with you, through many more years!
I love you honey!!!
