I always knew I loved my husband. We had a great relationship. But until I came face to face with the reality of possibly losing him, I must say I took him for granted. So scary it was... hearing that he had horrible heart disease and needed me to come home from a Mississippi trip right away. Packing up dresses that I was wearing to church, imagining the worst... hoping I wouldn't have to wear one of those dresses to a funeral - my husband's funeral. I shudder at even writing such words!!!
Since that time two and a half years ago, not a day goes by that both of us don't stop and thank God for our second chance to be a family. We live more passionately now, appreciating the preciousness of life. We care more deeply for each other. Each day seems like a bonus! A gift. Each day has always been a gift, but now we see it so much more than before.
