A New Routine Emerges
Katie’s illness altered the rhythm of their lives. Mornings that once started with coffee and conversation were now quiet, as Katie often felt too weak to rise early. David prepared meals, making sure everything met the dietary restrictions her doctor recommended. He’d leave notes on the fridge reminding her to take her medications, and he’d call her every few hours to check in. Despite the changes, there was a silent understanding between them, a shared strength that kept them going.

Bailey’s New Role
Bailey, their loyal dog, seemed to sense the shift in the household. The dog stayed close to Katie, lying at her feet as she rested on the couch. Bailey’s presence brought comfort to Katie, and David was grateful for it. He noticed that Bailey’s usual playful energy had softened into a gentle watchfulness. The dog became a bridge between them, offering solace in moments when words failed. David found himself confiding in Bailey, whispering his fears when Katie wasn’t listening.
