I've been off work for the past 4 months due to back pain that, as of yesterday, could end up requiring major surgery. Scared of the strain my lengthy recovery could put on our relationship, I tearfully advised James that there have been studies done on couples going through similar hardships and that a considerable number of them ended up splitting.
Smiling, he gently pushed my hair out of my face and wiped away the steady stream of tears that had been falling since it occurred to me that I could lose him. His smile faded as he took my face in his hands, kissed my forehead and confidently stated ...
"They've never studied us. I will never leave your side - I will always love you."
