Outside, the sun was setting, casting a warm glow over the city. Isabelle leaned into Michael, her heart full. “I don’t know what I would have done without you.”

Michael kissed the top of her head. “We’ll always face things together, Isabelle. No matter what.”

With her husband’s arm around her and the reassurance of medical care, Isabelle felt a renewed strength within her. Whatever challenges lay ahead, she knew they would face them as a family, united and resilient.
