I take a step carefully, with my walker always guided before me.
Hands are able to ensure my safety.
They’re full of needed strength and necessary love.
The voice is harsh as it barks it’s orders to walk, straighten the knee, or transfer the weight.
The same voice is soft, the lips are sweet as they brush a kiss of congratulations across my sweaty brow.
I take a deep breath and rest because I know that soon we’ll start again.
The mean and harsh every bit about love.
Same as the lovey sweetness.
Maybe more.
Both of you are pretty amazing.
You’re walking with a walker now? Congratulations! Seems like you’re making progress all over the place. Good for you.
He is the most awesome!!! I would let him be mean to me most days if I were you, also. Reading his raw heartfelt emotion for you while you were in the hospital was intense. Hearing how he would think about you and talk to you — you could tell it was harsh in the kindest sense possible. He didn’t want to let you give up. And even now…it seems he will not let you give up!!! Way to go, woman!!! I think you have a keeper.
I think you are so inspiring. I’ve been cheering you on, silently, from the sidelines – but today I’m telling you – You go, Girl! I’m so impressed.

He loves you sooooo much. It was overwhelming in the posts he wrote while you were in the hospital. You guys are blessed to have each other!!! Maybe “they” will make a movie about your love
Call Oprah, she’ll be all over it! But you might have to change your ethnicity 
And what I meant by THAT, was for the MOVIE. Not like you’d actually have to go change your ethnicity. Crap. Why did I say that?
Courage and love come in many forms, you both wear them incredibly well.

YAY! for walking! What a fantastic accomplishment. You have wonderful support!
You’ve got yourself a pretty fabulous man. Or drill Sargent
Keep up the great work! You amaze me.
Physical therapy is a bitch and sometimes it takes that harsh voice to urge you on. You both are amazing.

Anissa, that is the perfect blend of the push to get you strong again and the reward because he knows you are giving it your all. Marriage is all about teamwork is what we always hear and this is really putting that to the test.
Every anniversary, birthday, Valentines Day is going to mean so much more because of every added struggle. Even the saying, “Each step of the way.” It is like life, once again, has taken on a whole new meaning.
Thanks for sharing:)
Love, Tracy

so glad he’s pushing you with such love. he’s amazing (as are you!!)
This is good to read. Without little harshness in the motivation, there is no motivation. A push with love is the best push you can get.
Keep up the great work.

I know that there are a lot of “perfect marriages” on tv and in the media, but the marriage that you write about, the one that doesn’t always match what we see as models in the media? Is closer to perfect than any one I’ve ever seen.
you did so awesome tonight! I am so proud as is he!!

Your perserverence (and humor in the face of things not so humorous) is continually inspiring. ((hugs))
