And the second extreme makeover show is the wedding edition. This guy is a cancer survivor for 4 times now, what a strong guy and now he needs a heart transplant because chemotherapy ruins his heart. So he can't afford to pay for the wedding. He met his girlfriend, which is his wife now, at a fundraising event for cancer people. He's the key speaker for that event and I'm not sure what did she do, maybe she's the event organizer (not sure). Ok, so they met there and the relationship grew from there. I'm so amazed with them. The girl knows that this guy is sick and maybe doesnt have much time left but she still wants to marry him and be by his side. he doesnt have a job because of his sickness, he can't support the family but the girl doesn't care. That is true love my friend ^ ^ I once thought that if I ever be in that situation, I also don't care and still want to marry my bf. But then, I had this talk with hendy about this what if situation and I started to question my thought. It's easy to say that you're still going to marry that guy eventhough he doesn't have much time left but if you're really in that position, will you still be able to do that though? Talk is easy... Personally, I don't know if I can handle that pressure and knowing that your bf might die anytime and you're gonna be left alone broken hearted. Wow.... that's too much for me to bear, at least for now... What do you guys think? Any comments?

Extreme makeover
I saw 2 extreme makeover show today and I cried on both show haha... I'm such a cry baby but the story was so touching!!! The first one is the extreme makeover home edition, there's this firefighter who saved a paramedic's life. The paramedic got shot and the firefighter risk his life to save her by rushing to her side eventhough the shooter still shooting around that area. I cried when the paramedic told that story, well she was crying while telling the story and that's why I sort of cried too... The house is so prettyyy and the rooms are so cool especially the girl's room. She has her own private spa ahh so nice....

very thoughtful of you... I think that as much as you think about what if scenarios for now, it really depends on yourself, your significant other, and your feelings you have for each other. Also, it depends on a person's personality. I don't think everyone can make a decision that selfless as the wife of this guy, knowing that what he can offer is himself and that's all she's signing up for, nothing more.
Stories like this give hope, though, doesn't it? Contrasting the people in this world who can so easily take the life of others. There are people out there who are willing to give themselves to others.
