John said:
“Her dream dress. She loved that dress SO much. While at the hospice, she would talk to people about how great the wedding was going to be.”
The Dress hung in the closet, it was ready for the big day, the tuxes were being altered too, sadly though Michelle couldn’t hold on any longer, she was 30 years old and it was only just two weeks before the ceremony.
Only two and a half years after the diagnosis, Michelle and John’s dream of spending all their lives together vanished, he was broken.
John was given a little glimpse into what could be just a week after Michelle passed on, it shook his every bone.
He was looking through his wife’s phone and saw a photo, which was of Michelle wearing the lovely Wedding dress that she dreamed of wearing, in a moment he realized it really was THAT dress!
He said:
“I lay motionless in bed, both happy and devastated.”
John was in floods of tears, he lost the love of his life, remembering how happy Michelle was to have found the perfect dress for her special day, it was a cherished memory, it completely captured that special moment with the dress on.
John will always keep that photo and completely cherish it, it’s likely he will marry again he said, but he will never ever forget his first love!
