He could write a book - several books, really - but the best seller will be the one he writes on how to deal with your wife who is going through breast cancer treatment. Lee sacrificed two months to stay home and be everything I couldn't be. My job was my motivation to keep getting up every morning, so I went to work when I could. I would get home and pass out on the couch, sick to my stomach, pain in my body, head swimming. I lived in a fog - chemo brain. Lee would cook what I could eat that day, keep the house together, talk on the phone for me, shop for me, and was my voice and common sense with every doctor and nurse.
During the first days of grief over hearing the news, Lee told me that God is like a general picks his strongest soldiers to complete a mission. So this became a mission that I understood would be over at some point. Lee listened to my groaning and complaining, my questions and my lack of understanding. He gave me the answers I needed. The love he provides is certain and I am so blessed!
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens. (Ecclesiates 3:1)
