Yet, it's the most romantic story I've ever told. It's a journey of pain and loss, of hope and happiness. It's both achingly tragic and exquisitely beautiful. It's a love story. A true love story about real love. The kind that sees you through the night and holds you when you cry. The kind that won't give up and never lets go. The kind we all dream about and few find. But it's real. I promise you, it's real. I've seen this kind of love, and I've seen this kind of heartbreak. I got to see it up close and personal, and quite honestly, I will never be the same. I hope it changes you as much as it changed me.
