Jacob and I met
10 years before we got married. We went from acquaintances to friends. I knew I liked him more than a friend but didn't know if I had the courage to tell him so. One day, Jacob was experiencing severe pain and he thought it was back pain. I told him it sounded like something else and to go to the ER. He finally did. Turns out it was his appendix. But I didn't know which hospital he was at. So I said to myself, I am going to guess, and if the first place I end up at is the right one, I will tell him how I feel. I decided to drive to Lehigh Valley Cedar Crest, and went up to the surgery waiting room with a stuffed blue monkey, around 8pm, and as I entered the room, there were his parents, sitting there alone waiting for their son to be out of surgery. When he woke up from surgery, his words were "You're a good friend", and then he hugged the monkey and fell back asleep suddenly. I left with a smile. And this did eventually lead to us both realizing how right we were for each other. On the day he proposed, I was taken on a scavenger hunt throughout the entire Lehigh Valley to look for clues at all of our significant relationship spots, such as where we first met. The day ended at the Roxy Theatre in Northampton, where he made a short movie and proposed, and we also had our reception at the Northampton Banquet
