Heart Touching Message by Sidra Hashmi to her husband Bilal Ali who diagnoses with Cancer.

“We used to talk about you turning 21- how that would be a good age to get engaged ? we plan and He plans, so here we are on your 21st birthday, already married for a year and a half ? these last 7 months since your brain cancer was discovered have been extraordinary in ways hard to explain and hard even to understand.

We have grown individually and we have grown together. We have been tested with the worst of anyone’s nightmares and we have fought every day to make it through, to make it through stronger. Color me proud, you beat all the odds and I’m lucky to have witnessed each step of the journey, holding your hand.

Three brain surgeries, a sub-cue port surgery, one month of radiation, 4 rounds of chemo, hundreds of hospital visits, countless pills, endless pain, emotional distress, physical deterioration, all the tears. We’ve done it all together, we’ve cried together and laughed together. We’ve stayed up late thinking about what is to come. We’ve woken early thinking the same things. We’ve slept through any day that would cut us a break. We have prayed and prayed and prayed, and been prayed for. We have smiled, we have loved, and we have been loved by those near and far.

Since the day we got married I knew you were a blessing to me. You continue to be just that. As much as the cause of these months together was horrible, it has also been absolutely beautiful. I have loved every minute spent with you, in tears of sadness and joy alike. I have learned more about you than would have been possible to learn for a long time. I sleep every night thinking this is the most I could possibly love someone, yet I have woken every morning loving you more than the last. Subhanallah, alhamdulillah, I experience this incredible feeling daily because of you.

Even when you wake me up every hour in the night to help you go to the bathroom, I smile and say “okay, let’s go” because even in those moments and odd hours of the night, when I can feel my eyes refusing to open, and my legs threatening to give out; even in those moments I love you more and more.
