Last year, two days from now I had the most amazing family, who helped me through the scariest thing I've faced. Cancer stage III in the kidney, I thought for sure it would win and take me away from you. In my mind, I thought how could this be, that love would escape me. But as the days grew near for surgery, you gave me hope a reason, a life full of this amazing love. I'm writing this now two days from an amazing year, cancer free. Though surgery was rough, your love made me whole. A victorious year now in the books. A year where I understood exactly what love is and what it hopes for. Overcame PTSD in the same year, the year that made me. The year, I found love and it found me. Everyday for this year I long to hear your voice that led me, held me, comforted me and continues to everyday. A month ago, the oncologist had given me news that possibly cancer came once again. I denied but had the surgery to prove im cancer free in this past year that made me. The year that you taught me, I could face every fear. The upcoming years can only bring me closer to you. I'm growing, we are growing into what God wants for us. Our home in the next few years. Our lives merging together until we are one. That's what a year has made me. I look forward to everyday appreciating, loving you more day by day.
Dedicated to my Special K, my angel, my year that made me
