I want to dedicate this song to my wonderful husband, who searched out a cure for this nasty cancer. I never would have known about B17 had it not been for my love. During this fight, he dried my eyes, kissed my bald head, and held me tight, doing all he could to WIN this cancer battle for me. And in the end, HE WON! All with the Lord's leading, we did it! This song says it all!
RASCAL FLATTS -- I WON'T LET GO
I've heard this song so many times, but never thought of it in the context of having cancer. This song describes my man perfectly!
I was so excited when a sweet sister shared how this song reminded her of us, that I listened to it ten times in a row, blubbering the entire time.
I then got a grand idea. Of course, I'm FULL of grand ideas, just ask my hubby. I met him for lunch and brought a few surprises. I picked up a potted orchid (because the way it grows it's a little flighty, which is kind of like me). I wanted to give him something for his desk at work that would remind him of moi. :-) It towers over his cubical. I never could fit in a box.
I also wrote a card, telling him how he's my hero. And then I had him listen to this song. I told him the man in this song was HIM. His eyes filled with tears as he listened to it. This is another SONG that describes him perfectly!
I love you, Karsten!
