It's so beautiful and heartwarming and sad at the same time. Good luck to them from the bottom of my heart http://www.parade.com/health/2010/11/07-only-time-we-have-together-is-right-now.html

Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | This is my kind of story, True but sad. Much better than imagination . Did you tear up Suez? I am one of those guys with deep feelings and tear up at sad or very happy endings when it concerns people. Heck, sometimes for animals too.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.

Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 453 | That's a beautiful story Suez and one I can relate too. Steve was given 6-12 months, possibly 2 years to live when he was diagnosed. After 20 years together we decided to get married at the end of his treatment. Our first wedding anniversary is Saturday november 20. In that one year of marriage I've recieved enough love to last me a lifetime. Steve continues to defy the odds and if love can keep someone well then I've got a whole lot of love for him. We've spent 18 months living each day, day by day. It's only now that we are daring to think and plan for the future. Jim, I did tear up also at this story and as always I think your awesome
