Eric

Any of you who are fortunate enough to know Eric Coan, as I have been, know he is a good guy. Well, after having been his girlfriend now for quite sometime, I can say with great confidence that he is a wonderful guy and I truly don't know what I would do without him. When I was fist diagnosed with cancer, one of my first thoughts was, how is this going to affect my home life,my relationship, the family I have built? And as it turns out, I need not have questioned anything. From day one, my Eric has been right at my side. Attending appointments, asking questions, keeping track of the heaps on information that was thrown at us. He has sat through scans, procedures and chemo therapy appointments. He has held me when I cried. He has laughed with me when I didn't know what else to do. He has stayed up at night, watching me sleep, making sure I am comfortable. He has made 8400 cups of tea, 8401 much needed cocktails on the rough days, heated up  1500 " packs." He has listened to me complain and contended with the house full of visitors.  He is truly one of my warriors, another of my champions in my battle with the walking C. He has shown me love, and helped me redefine what I thought loving another person meant. I thank God for him daily. And I sure hope he sticks around!! Thank you for everything my love!
