    This is the first time I seen Jon's wife. So pretty. So wholesome. I just like when Jon smiles. I'm happy she is smiling, too. I strive to be as strong as these people, and I'm a combat vet. With cancer, 2 cancers. Not doing well. But, in my hard tomes I try to send as many smiles as I can, so other people's days are just a little bit better.
    HUGS JON AND SULEIKA!
    The music is fantastic! The love is .... what I strive for.
    Thank you for the music. And thanks for showing me love still exists.

      Thanks. It's been another bad day but I still look after my neighbors. I just wish Jon and his wife the best cuz that's all I can do. I'll be gone soon. Cancer is kicking my butt, too. I just don't have support or family, they all died alredy.
      So it's just me and my Kitty. I'm going to bed. It's 5 PM. I got very little done today but my cat is fed and the trash is out. Now, maybe a meal later.
      Just happy to see Jon again. I was wondering where he went!

    I feel like you can sorta see that she is the true anchor of this family and couple. Despite his great creativity he always seems to have this look like he's not exactly sure why he's in the room or what he should be doing. He certainly looks for her for direction and I think you could really see that in the documentary when he was traveling, the guilt and struggle he was feeling by not being there during some of her treatment and this sudden panic rush of being truly alone, not having your partner in crime to be by your side even just for a short period.

    I LOVE THIS COUPLE, but I would like someone to ask her what it was like to love the duality of being sick while her husband’s career was soaring. It couldn’t have been easy for her to miss so many milestones, but did it help fuel her will to stay positive? I’m interested in her mindset because she’s sooo honest and hopeful
    And strong and humble and loving.
