It felt like the world paused the moment we pulled into Walt Disney World .
When my BF was eight, cancer stole his childhood and Make A Wish Foundation handed him one moment of magic in the middle of fear. Back then he didn’t know if he’d grow up… if he’d beat it… if he’d ever get the chance to come back.
Twenty seven years later, I’m seeing it for the very first time, and he’s seeing it again with the life he fought for.
As the gates came into view, neither of us said a word. We didn’t need to. The emotion hit both of us at once… the quiet gratitude, the healing, the awe of how far life can carry you.
Thank You, God, for this man… for his strength… and for letting me stand beside him in moments like this. ❤️
