September
25, 1999
Raquel
and Christopher vowed to be together forever.
Truly
by a chance meeting in conditions that seemed dim.
A
Love and friendship was born that is ever going.
Neither
one ever thought that they would be married,
Until
they met each other and found similar souls.
With
the ever trying world around them,
they
both continue to work together and be each other's home.

Our
Story
Extremely
sick and near death Raquel was admitted into the hospital
Christopher worked. Diagnosed with pneumonia Raquel was in
bad condition.. Unable to move or eat she was in the
hospital for 3 days receiving IV antibiotics until they inserted
a tube in the cavity near her right lung to drain the
infected
fluid that had collected. She was moved to the CCU unit.
After about a week she met Christopher. He worked in the
CCU unit and took care of her. He was very kind and took a bit
of time to sit and speak with her. He even loaded her his
walkman and a couple of tapes, since she couldn't have a TV in
the CCU unit. Raquel was grateful she was sick, scared and
missed her family.

Christopher
started looking for Raquel when he was at work. Passing the door
when he could get a chance. Most times she would be
sleeping and open her eyes enough to say hi and give a little
wave. Raquel would look forward to Christopher
passing by helping and talking to her. He
seemed like such a nice quite person. She always waited
until he came around to ask for something. Raquel knew
Christopher would help her and not ignore her like the other
workers. Christopher made a joking remark to a co-worker.
"I am going to marry that woman". Little did he
know that his joke would come true. Raquel was in the CCU
unit for 3 weeks when doctors saw that she was doing very well.
They then transferred her to the regular unit. Happy but
sad also because she doubted she would see Christopher again.
I
really do want to see him again she thought to herself.

One
night Christopher looked for Raquel and found her on the other
unit. They sat and talked to each other and got to know
each other a bit more. Raquel being so excited that he
would actually look for her was smiling from ear to ear.
From the moment he saw her smile he knew he would have to see
this women after she was sent home. Christopher sat with
Raquel For about 4 hours. Until he had to return to work.
Raquel gave Christopher her phone number and a good bye hug.
It
seemed so perfect for a moment.
A few months later Christopher went to visit Raquel at home and
from there it was a blur with in 2 months they were engaged and
planning their wedding. A year later they were married.

Even
though we go through so many hard times we dedicated ourselves
together. The grass may look greener on the other side.
But who knows what problems that grass may bring. We are
satisfied with each other and our way of life. We know
exactly what we have and are willing to work with it.
We don't believe in magically relationships. We have our
hard times but we have a lot invested in each other. We
understand and try to cooperate with each other even when we
don't want to. We work for everything in life and
our Marriage is worth the work.
We
have a special Love that believe in.
