Life changes

 2024 got away with me and I never realize that I stopped blogging. Life took an interesting turn when I wasn’t expecting it in April of this year. I met Anthony. On paper not what I wanted to date but some thing in my gut told me to give it a chance. April 13 Friday the 13th we went on our first date. He made me laugh. He makes me smile. There’s a peace for me over the last six months with him that I haven’t felt in a very long time.

September 1 we went to Northside Hospital to the ER thinking he had a virus. We came out with the liver cancer diagnosis and our world completely broke open. We went from having a new puppy and having his kids every other weekend to going to New York to memorial Sloan Kettering for him to get treatment. 


I came home two days before my 47th birthday and completely broke down. There is no way that God would bring such a special man into my life for me to lose him so quickly and that is all that I could see. I looked out my window and didn’t see his truck in the driveway, and that’s when it hit me. How much he has come to mean to me  

He is staying in New York to get his treatments. I’m down here in Georgia taking care of my life. His kids live here in Georgia as well. I go up to see him as often as I can for nothing else then to hold his hand and sit in the peace that I find in his company.

I pray every day for his recovery, for his stability, for his health, for my peace and health and for our children. I have the big and he has the Littles  Emma Moved out and Noah is living in the basement now. His kids live with their mom September has not been a great month. I can’t wait to see him again and hold his hand and kiss him.

So many more changes that I’m still trying to process from this year. My knee has healed. Well my heart healed and so much more.


Saying goodbye

 Saying a quiet goodbye is the worst feeling in the world. I cannot tell him goodbye because we are still connected by friends and love. But...
