After my husband Paul was diagnosed with lung cancer, he said, “It’s going to be OK.” And I remember answering back, “Yes. We just don’t know what OK means yet.”

Paul and I met as medical students at Yale. I fell in love with him as I watched the ________he took with his patients. He later told me he fell in love with me when he saw me ________ over an EKG(心电图) of a heart that had ________ beating. We didn’t know it yet, but we were learning how to ________ suffering together.

I lived with Paul’s illness for 22 months. I’ve always thought of myself as a caregiver, and attending to Paul ________ what that meant. As physicians, we were in a good ________ to understand and even ________ the diagnosis. We weren’t angry about it, luckily, ________ we’d seen so many patients in ________ situations, and we knew that ________ is a part of life. But it's one thing to know that; it was a very ________ experience to actually live with the sadness and ________ of a serious illness.

As a poem says, “Your absence has gone through me like thread through a needle. Everything I do is sewn with its color.” For me that poem ________ my love for Paul, and a new strength that came from loving and losing him. When Paul said, “It’s going to be OK,” that didn’t mean that we could ________ his illness. ________, we learned to accept both joy and sadness at the same time because we are all born and we all die. ________ ourselves in the full range of experience—living and dying, love and ________—is what we get to do. When we approach suffering together and choose not to ________ it, our lives don’t shrink; they ________. Our job isn’t to fight fate, but to help each other ________. That’s how we make it OK, even when it’s not.
