When your husband is diagnosed with brain cancer, ‘You realize what matters’
- "Last October, in an ER trauma room, I put my head on my husband’s chest and cried as we received the worst news of our lives."
- "He had brain cancer. I was six months pregnant with our first child at the time; we didn’t even know if he would live to see our baby being born."
- "You realize that one day you’ll desperately miss the things that used to annoy you."
- "Dan did live to see the birth of our son, Sawyer; the three of us were blessed to spend seven beautiful months together as a family before Dan passed away."
- "Sawyer is my living proof that life does go on, and it is still beautiful."
- "Thankful that I can look into our son’s face and see his dad."
- "That just might be my biggest lesson learned through this ordeal: that there is always something to be thankful for."
- "Dan was an Army veteran and member of the Vermont State Police, where he served as a State Trooper for 14 years."
- "His wife, Jess, is a NICU nurse."
- "There is a community of support available."
