The Trial Begins
The day Katie started the clinical trial was filled with mixed emotions. There was hope, of course, but also fear. The treatments were grueling, and the side effects hit Katie hard. She was often nauseous, weak, and in pain, but she never complained. David was by her side every step of the way, holding her hand, offering words of encouragement, and doing everything he could to make her comfortable. It was a challenging time, but they faced it together, determined to see it through.

The Toll on David
As the trial progressed, the toll on David became more apparent. He was exhausted, physically and emotionally. The long hours at the hospital, the constant worry, and the fear of losing Katie wore him down. He tried to hide it from her, but she could see the strain in his eyes. She worried about him, even as she battled her own illness. They talked about it one night, and David admitted how hard it had been for him. They cried together, releasing some of the tension that had been building up for months.
