Oh my goodness... I have tears in my eyes right now. That is so beautiful, I am getting goosebumps! You did such a good and loving and caring job! *I* am so glad that the neighbors were there to take the dogs out ! I love how *she* was the one who suggested that you stay so long! She is very lucky to have your loving care.
I was wondering if Gifts of Real Giving might be a secondary love language for your W? I just remember she got so excited about the snowboard and I think another present too in your thread so far. And cold medicine counts too! Maybe those are isolated incidents but if there is a trend then you have just another tool to show your steadfast and wonderful love for her!
you know, this might sound weird, but sometimes I think it's really fun to take care of your partner when they are sick. It can be like this fun gentle down time to enjoy together that you might not get otherwise. Maybe I am weird !!
Anyway, your post lifts my heart. I am so happy for you!!!
