My partner had leukemia at 39 and we both thought she would recover, mainly because the doctors were convinced she would. We didn't plan for the alternative, we just kept an action oriented mindset and tried to make the best of things. At this point, you can tell she didn't make it, but it happened in the span of less than a week - going from hopeful to "there's nothing more we can do" and then she was gone. I wish I had a letter.
I'm not trying to guilt you into writing one because I can't fathom the strength that must take, especially at a time when I imagine you don't have the strength for many things. That might be me projecting. Trisha was a great person and you sound great and full of life too.
Anyway, I hope the best for you and your partner. Your story made me feel like sharing my own, which I don't do very often, but it brought up the feeling of "if I could go back in time" and I just wanted to say that I'll be thinking of you and rooting for you and your family. Thank you for sharing 💚
