January 2025 changed everything for our family. Watching my wife face Stage 3 colon cancer was the most humbling experience of my life. She fought with a grace and diligence that I still find hard to put into words. While she was conquering surgeries and chemotherapy, I was grappling with the feeling of being "just" a spectator—someone who wanted to help but didn't know how.
Writing became my way of standing beside her. It was my way of processing the fear and documenting the strength I saw in her every day. Now that she has reached that beautiful "cancer-free" milestone, I’m sharing our story to remind others that they aren't alone in this. Whether you’re the one fighting or the one holding their hand, you have a community here. We’re all in this together. One foot in front of the other.
