It was perhaps ten years ago that I met Alex atop a ladder.

He саme to help me with some tasks.

He ѕtгᴜсk me as being incredibly attractive and kind the moment I laid eyes on him.

He’s the kindest, most laid-back guy you’ve ever met—completely the antithesis of me.

So always have this little bit of a crush on Alex.

I used to be really vain.

I’d always spend time in front of the mirror.

Do my hair, make sure i look good, have the right shirt on, make sure my jeans are nice and tidy.

Good Shoes- always judging me by shoes.

We were just an ordinary family- me, Lucy and our son Sam.

Then, just over two years ago, i caught a common cold.

It was to change the course of my life overnight.

I remember Saturday morning.

Both Sam and Alex were ill.

Alex just opened up the door and his eyes were popping out of his head.

And he’s hot

And he didn’t have his top on and his whole top half was just purple.

Literally it was.

It was happening in front of me.

He was going purple.

You know he was shivering.

He didn’t really know if i was there or not.

He was like going unconscious.

I didn’t know what this was.
