I know it seems like if you're a girl and you're in a relationship that you are constantly thanking your boyfriend for a lot, which is totally true from personal experience. However, in this past week I feel like I have so much to thank my boyfriend for. So much that he totally deserves an article for it. (For the record, there have been a ton of people there for me, but he held my hair back while I puked, so he wins the game.)
At the beginning of the week I was extremely sick and no one knew what was wrong. I was dealing with back pain, nausea, vomiting, a fever, cold sweats, etc. You name it, I had it. I had gone down to my boyfriend's family's condo for the Fourth of July and I was sick the entire time. He was there for me the entire time. Whether he was getting me a cold cloth to put on my head, fetching medicine, grabbing me freeze pops, refilling my water bottle, rubbing my back, holding my hair while I got sick, or just telling me everything was going to be okay. I was beyond thankful for him in that moment where I felt like I was on my death bed. It had gotten so bad, he actually had to drive me home, because I could not drive myself home. I ended up finding out the next day I had a Kidney Infection. (Which I would never wish on anyone, because let me tell you, it is a living nightmare.) He texted me the whole time I was in the Emergency Room until the minute I was home. Throughout the whole week he was calling and texting to make sure I was okay, when he should have been enjoying his family vacation instead. He has spent so much time in the last week trying to cheer me up and promising me a beach trip and ice cream when I am feeling 100%. I also had to go through college orientation feeling like shit and he was there the entire time. Constantly texting to see if I was okay or if I needed something. Just sending me encouraging little pick me ups. There were times I wanted to cry, because I just was not feeling well and he knew exactly what to say to get me through. It was more than I could have asked for while he was on vacation. I know to someone else this may not seem like a lot, but when you feel the way I felt, it will mean the world to you.
So, to say that I am thankful for you is a understatement Adam, because I am beyond thankful. There aren't enough words to thank you for all that you have done for me this week. You might not see how much it meant to me, but I hope you know now. I hope I can find a way to thank you for everything this week and give you another vacation you can really enjoy. I love you to the moon and back Ad. Thank you.
