This time last year my husband, Randy and I were on our way to NC to celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary. Instead of going skiing we ended up at the nearest ER where Randy was transported to another hospital for emergency surgery- his appendix had ruptured.
The morning of our anniversary I arrived at the hospital expecting to take him home, but he wasn’t doing well due to a complication which had occurred during surgery. Instead of going home and back to life as we knew it- this was the day we found out he had cancer. He was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive stage 4 appendix cancer.
This February 18th we’ll be married 33 years, but the celebration began on February10th when Randy rang the bell signifying the end of chemo. It was an emotional moment and physical relief.
Our son, Jordan took this photo after we returned home that day. This is what happy looks like! I’ve no idea what the future holds, but I’m trying to appreciate and never take for granted moments like this one.
Happy Valentine's Day!
