That's when the inspiration of this blog name came about. I promise to precious every second, making every second counts, waste no quality time anymore.
Oh I did cook up a meal of spaghetti bolognese for the family. I remember during groceries shopping, the husband picked up a bar of dark chocolate for me. He has been awesomely sweet.
Reflection: indeed it takes a waking call for people to re-look on our lives and the people we love around us. I wish we never had to go through this to be this close again.
But on the contrary, if not for this cancer, we might not have gone back to such a lovely state again.
The husband and I had a long quiet talk on Sunday night, after the kids were asleep.
He apologised to me, he felt remorseful and felt the guilt if my condition has developed due to the stress he has given me. Dear husband cried and wept that night, one scene which I had not seen for at least 6 years. He opened up and shared his concern on my choice of surgery. He asked me to reconsider and drop the idea of breast recon as he wouldn't bear having me go under the knife for additional 8 hours just for the recon.
It was a long talk which had never taken place for some time really. I truly appreciate it for this man who stands by me. Seeing him cry makes me hold my tears. I need to be strong, I must be strong and face everything that comes along. It hurts to see the loved one saddens. It hurts to see my man worries and uncertain.
I promised him to walk through all thick and thin that are coming...
