Mike and i first met Jan 22, 2008 at a local coffee shop. We dated up until Jan 2010, i broke up with him (for reasons i will keep to myself). He tried for a few weeks to win back my trust, he sent me flowers, etc. and finally told me that he loved me. We got back together. About a week after that i was diagnosed with breast cancer, it was very scary time for me. I have no family in this province, they are all back in Newfoundland so having him here for me meant so much. I had surgery April 1st for a mastectomy and then about a month later for lymph node removal, i had stage 2 cancer. He has been there for me since day one and has been by my side, he works night shift and spends every day with me. He takes me to my chemo appointments and is there for all my other Doctor appointments.

I had an appointment the morning of June 1, 2010 for Reiki at Wellspring. He had cooked me breakfast and i was in the process of eating it when he bent down on my right side, i didn't clue in as to what was happening which makes it so funny, i thought he was just checking on me to see how my breakfast was. He then said "How much do you love me?". I of course still eating as i was on a time crunch and didn't look at him and said "lots". He then repeated the question and i said "lots. why? How much do you love me?" and then i looked at him. He had the ring in one had and said "marry me?". I was so shocked i just looked at him, looked at the ring and then back and him and said "yes!". He put the ring on my finger and then i had to finish eating to get to my appointment. I went to that appointment with the biggest smile on my face ever. He is my rock. He loves me no matter what i look like, even with no hair. I know that when we do get married he will be there for me no matter what, and this experience that i am going through has just proved it to me.

He was trying to find the right time to propose but every time an opportunity came up the ring was at this place, he wanted to hide it at mine but he thought i would find it by accident. The proposal was nothing fancy but that didn't matter to me, it came from his heart and that's all that mattered. We have set a date for Aug 18, 2012 and can't wait to marry my best friend.

Hi there, Sorry I haven't got back to you guys sooner. Thank you so much for the amazing help at the store I definitely found the best dress at your store and it looked gorgeous! I was also impressed because many other stores that we visited, that had higher price points, provided us with less than acceptable service. So I was glad we visited you at Best for Brides!?
