If you all follow and read some of my blogs and, there seems to be a comment from Sharlene on there at the end, it is just my wonderful husband Gary checking up on me and feeling strong enough to leave his opinion. Which I must say I welcome with open arms.

Gary is much more than a husband to me. He is like my gift from God. When my father was ill and became and invalid, Gary helped me nurse him back to health so that my father could walk me down the aisle. When the doctors said it couldn't happen, Gary made sure with a lot of personal determination that it did happen.

When I had uterine cancer and I found out I could never carry my husband's child - we would never have our own baby - he was the one who said, "You mean more to me than anything else. Have the surgery so you can be with me for the rest of our lives."

He also was the one who said "OK" when I wanted to foster care. Then when it looked like we were not only going to adopt one child but a few more, he just shook his head and gave me the biggest hug ever.

When I had my heart attack and heart surgery, he was there 24/7 by my bedside. He bathed me and nursed me back to health as well as worked full time and took care of our home and family.

A few years back when I got so mixed up and needed time to myself, we spent the summer away from each other. Without him next to me for the first time in my life, I grew stronger but there was a personal weakness. I missed him. He was such a part of me that I could not imagine life without him ever again by my side.

The time away was good for both of us. We found out that even after 20 years of hum drum every day marriage, we still loved and needed each other.

I guess I always had it in the back of my mind that if I divorced him he could go on and have a family of his own. A child of his own. He is the last male in his family line.

But after that summer of separation we both knew that our lives would not be so full without one another's love and encouragement.

So when you See Sharlene making a comment on my own post, it is simply my husband Gary with his insight to offer.

I hope everyone has as much happiness and love as I have been blessed with in my husband.

He makes a good father too. I guess I can say he is my pot of gold at the end of my own personal rainbow. A real life Family Man.
