Dear Diary,
They couldn't remove the tumor last month. Nick just keeps getting weaker and weaker. Today's Christmas, and I've spent the day at his house. His family was as always - warm, friendly, homely. Recently, Nick has been so weak that when he walks upstairs, he would be panting and wheezing. Do you know how much my heart pains to see him in such agony? Oh God, take away his pain... I've been reading stories to him, poems I've written about him and simply recollecting all the times we spent together. Nick is so weak now, it's like any day could be his last. I pray God will work a miracle. But for now, this Christmas is one that I will never forget, one that was spent with the one love of my life.
