THIS IS WHAT LOVE IS ALL ABOUT!!!

It was a busy morning, approximately 8:30 A.M.., when an elderly gentleman inhis 80's,arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He stated that he was ina hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 A.M. I took his vital signs and had himtake a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would be able to see him.I saw him looking at his watch and decided, since I was not busy with anotherpatient, I would evaluate his wound.On exam, it was well healed so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to

remove his sutures and re-dress his wound. While taking care of his wound, we began to

engage in conversation. I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning,

as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the

nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife.I then inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for a while and that she

was a victim of Alzheimer's Disease. As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was

a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him

in five years now.I was surprised, and asked him, "And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't

know who you are?" He smiled as he patted my hand and said, "She doesn't know me, but

I still know who she is."I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm, and thought, "That is the

kind of love I want in my life." True love is neither physical, nor romantic. True love is an

acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.
