Exactly a year ago today... Update on pg 2 about my night

FH was diagnosed with cancer. I cannot believe how much time has passed. I wasn't going to post this, but that whole happy with your life thread had me thinking. A year ago I would not have ever imagined going through what I did. Now here we are, engaged, getting married SOON, and happier than ever.

I took tonight off from my part time job to cook FH a nice dinner and celebrate his health.

Ladies, always remember to tell the people you love how you feel about them.

Awww.... Hollie. Thank you for posting this, it gave me the chills and it was a small reminder of how we take our happy, healthy lives for granted... I'm going to be extra sweet to my FH tonight in your and your FH's honor. Thank you

Re: Exactly a year ago today...

Thanks ladies! I still cannot believe how much FH has been through and how strong he is. I just keep thinking that my whole life changed in a few short hours.

I don't know how often I say this to you all, but you are all amazing women and I feel honored to know you.

You're such a great person Hollie. It's been a pleasure, and moreover an honor to have met both you and John, and I just wanted to say 'Thank You' for sharing this with us, and allowing us an insight into life and the things in life we all should be grateful for. The both of you are a true inspiration.

Congrats and another for Good Health!
