The photos below are scans of a story Valerie wrote back in 1992. It's called "Love Conquers All". It is about and wife who cares for her husband who has been in a nearly fatal auto accident and how she cares for him.
This story is more than ironic for me now. The last two paragraphs really touched me. You can read the rest of the story...
"...when I married, I did it for life. I could never turn my back on David. What we accomplished, we did together, as we always have." And would Liz have done if fate had been unkind to David? Could she have spent the rest of her life as the wife of an invalid?
Without hesitation, Liz answers, "as long as David's my companion, as long as he's alive and with me, he's my husband."
I only hope I can live up to Liz's expectations.
