25th Wedding Anniversary

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Just had to share with you that our 25th wedding anniversary is tomorrow! And,

of course, it is even more special because it falls on the 25th of the month!

and I were going to go to Las Vegas, but we postponed the trip for later

due to the national crisis. We plan, instead, to drive to the Northern border

of WI to visit the Bayfield area, which is beautiful in the Fall.

I know I've complained to you all about problems we have had because of my

illness, but has really come around...I knew it was just a matter of time

before he started to accept my illness as being a permanent situation. He's my

rock, my sweetheart, and I'm so grateful to have him! Every night he comes home

from work (he's an engineer), makes dinner, walks our dog, does the dishes and

then sits down to TV with me. He does his own laundry and vacuums the house.

He does all those things that are so difficult for me, and he does them happily.

And he is very generous--he always makes sure that I have my own spending money

that I don't have to account for, even though he drives a Jeep that is ten years

old. He's a wonderful father to our two daughters, ages 23 and 19, and he is

so sweet with our puppy dog, Sadie--he rocks her and holds her like a baby! I

am happy to grow old with this man, he is my hero! **And on top of all that,

he wants to take me to the jewelry store tomorrow** whooppee!!! Thanks to you

all, everyone, for being best friends with me, listening to me, and being there

for me when couldn't. Life, in general, is pretty good, even with EDS!

Hugs to you all,

Brecka
