So yes. That brings me to about now. Philippe started working from home way more often when I moved in. Even though I was feeling a lot better by then, he wanted to keep an eye on me, even if he’d never admit it. He wanted to do what his dad did and make as much time for his family as possible. He said he finally understood what was really important.
It’s been a long while now since Philippe last had a panic attack. Even though he was probably twice as busy with the kids and running a multi-billion company, he made it all work.
I helped out where and when I could, and since I already knew the job so well, Philippe never had to get a new admin assistant. Instead, he just cut out the gross health food and made it himself at home. He also did his own dry cleaning and learned how to book his own flight tickets. Well, okay, so I still help him with that. Quite often. Not that I mind.
It’s a challenge to concentrate working from home, but we make it work, just like we make the rest of our crazy but awesome life work.
Even though it’s hard, it’s still wonderful.
I once thought I’d have to do this all alone, but now, I have the love of the best man in the world and two beautiful children. I have Philippe’s mom, who loves us all, and his sister, who has become like my own sister. We are healthy. We are blessed. And I have absolutely everything.
So yes, I’d say everything worked out perfectly.The End
