To my best friend, my husband Josh

Josh,

Well, here I sit 8 hours and 40 minutes before I am to be wheeled to an OR to have my hysterectomy. I do not know that you will ever read this, or maybe even post recovery I can come show you.

I love you so very much, and I cannot even begin to express it. You have rdden this roller coaster with me for 11 years now, and yet, here you are, still by my side, through thick and thin. You have always been a very understanding man, and very gentle when needed. You are always there fr me when I need to cry, talk, hug, or just be. You have given me two absolutely wonderful children in between all of my problems. Then you nephews became ours and I was blessed again. Here I sit at 31 years old with 3 sons ages 6. 3, and 20 months, and a daughter who is 5. You have given the me love and acceptance that I never thought I would find. How can I return the favor. I am sitting here scared about going into surgery in 8 hours and 35 minutes. I mailnly want you to know that I love you and thank y ou for being there for me, in sickness and in health. We met 15 years ago, and I have been having these problems for 17 years. You have been there through it all. I love you , I love you, I love you!
