JUDY’S STORY
DIAGNOSIS: STAGE 4 SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER
JUDY'S STORY
When I was 12 years old, I met my soulmate….David worked at the ice rink where I used to skate. After being pulled in different directions, years later we miraculously bumped into each other…
THE REST OF OUR LIVES
Shortly after that, we were married and inseparable. As our retirement approached, David had some loose ends he wanted to tie up at work. Then, we were going to take a vacation…
THE ROUTINE
That day was normal, He had to leave early that morning. I remember he wanted to cuddle first…and we did. When I woke up later, he seemed to have left. I was excited.
CERTAIN SUSPICIONS
I completed my usual errands, but he didn’t call at his regular time. He always called from work. Then I noticed his vehicle was still in the driveway…
GRIEF
When I walked into the other room, I found him on the ground. He was lifeless between the bed and the dresser. He had died in that room and the terrible thing is, I was home the whole time. I miss him so much.
WITH YOU
3 years later, Judy succumbed to her disease, She died on David’s birthday.
