Day 72 - Saturday is Special Day - May 20
9:07 p.m. ;
I'm starting my blog and Robert is still outside irrigating. I'm sure he could adapt this cute primary song, to 'Saturday is a Specially Long Day!' So much of this blog has been focused on my journey through through cancer and it's up's and downs, but it sure needs to be said this is not a one man journey. It is very difficult to watch the burdens (my word, not his) that my caretaker has borne through this process. It is totally humbling to think of all he has given and continues to give without complaint. What a testament to know what true love is all about in this confused world of ours, that when the going gets tough, the tough just keep going, giving and loving!
I know this journey has taken a toll on his health and his strength but he doesn't let down. The last few weeks I have been begging him to let me mow the lawn with a mask on, so he doesn't have to keep doing it all by himself, but to no avail. He did relent today however, that even 'he' is looking forward to the time when I can mow again! We are both counting the days when life returns to a resemblance of what it once was, and I couldn't be more grateful for the man I can count on!
He is a good man.
