On examining it I saw it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors and got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound.
While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for a while!
As she is a victim of Alzheimer's disease.
As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now.
I was surprised and asked him, 'And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?'
He smiled as he patted my hand and said,
.........'She doesn't know me but I still know who she is.'............
I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm and thought,
'That is the kind of love I want in my life. True love is neither physical nor romantic'.
True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.

betul la ape yang atuk tu cakap (should i call him atok)?kite semua memang mengimpikan sebuah perkahwinan yang kekal abadi hingga ke akhir hayat. tp mampu ke kita mengharungi kehidupan dengan orang yang sama itu setiap hari?makan mengadap dia, tido mengadap dia, mandi mengadap dia ceh....sensor!!tiap hari aku berdoa agar hati aku ni takkan berpaling pade orang lain eventho hanya dalam hati..sumpah aku taknak dapat title nusyuz.
mcm mane kite nak tau, orang depan mate ni is our eternal love?
somepeople might said 'kawan berpuluh tahun pun belum tentu sehidup semati bersama'
betul jugak tu
ape yang aku boleh buat skang ialah pertahankan CINTA nan satu ini dan semoga YANG MAHA ESA memberkati kehidupan kami
