I ask him the same question. How serious do you take your vows? There are only two options. Fight or quit.
He cries. He says "it's too hard."
I turn away to eat my own dinner which is no longer appetizing.
He sits himself up and starts to eat his soup. He says he will try. I pray.
Love is a feeling. Commitment is an action. I tell him altar calls are about recommitting and that's all I need from him. A commitment to fight for our love. For our relationship. For our life. I can't do this without him. I won't let him quit.
Keep him in your thoughts. He's really struggling emotionally and mentally with all of this. And me too.
This little blog is about the places we never knew love could take us. It's the story of us: an ordinary, movie loving, theme party hosting, cruise vacation taking, do good, mind our own business type of couple...until cancer. Jenny, a social worker turned caregiver, and Wil, an aspiring math educator...until a diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. We’re honored you crossed our path to support us as we Fight The Big Fight. Much Love, Jenny and Wil
I am praying for you both and you families. May God give him the strength to east one more bite, take one more step, to do everything just a little more than he did the day before.
