I am thankful that for my wife. She has been such an inspiration to me over our first 2 years of marriage. The first week of our marriage, my wife got really sick at our job in Denali National Park. She was diagnosed with H-Pylori, its a very bad intestinal bacteria. About 100 times worse than Gardia. We had to fly back here to Utah, to get the right diagnosis. She had to go through 2 medical procedures as well as a ton of blood tests. She fought hard to get back to good health, and right when she was starting to feel better. We found out through other testing that she had Cancer. She started chemo immediately and was in and out of the hospital and bed for 3 months. She has been fighting the same illnesses and diseases all of her life. This was her second bout with the same cancer, and right now, we are pretty sure it has came back a 3rd time. We have gone through a miscarriage this past September, me being laid off from my job and being barely able to scrape by. But what has kept me going, is my Wife.
She has her ups and downs, but they are mostly ups. With everything that has happened, she has continued to push forward and look for the brighter sides of life. She is my hero and i know that without her, i could not be the man that i am today. She is an amazing example to me and to countless others.
I am so thankful for my wife.
