...when it seemed everything was over..

Could anything be more romantic than meeting the second love of your life when it seemed everything was over?
I had been so happily married for 28 years. My husband was mis-diagnosed for the last five, and when finally correctly diagnosed succumbed to cancer very quickly. I learned a lot about grief then. If I had felt sure that I would be with Don, I would have gladly died myself.
I was still feeling that way about a year and a half after his death, when a friend was having a book launch. I was desperately unhappy at the thought of attending alone, and my friend arranged for me to attend with an older, single man. With whom, over the past 10 months, I have fallen completely in love. And vice versa.
Finding another man I could love this way was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Sometimes the cosmic switchboard gets it right.
I promise you there are no two people for whom a romantic time at the spa would be so right.
