Recently, John lost his __4__ Janet. For eight years she fought against cancer, but in the end her sickness had the last __5__. One day John took out a folded piece of __6__ from his wallet. He had found it, as he told me, when he __7__ up some drawers at home.

　　It was a __8__ love letter Janet had written. The note could look like a school girl?s scrawls (潦草地写，乱涂) about her dream guy. __9__ the letter was written by a woman who had had seven children, a woman who fought for her life and who __10__ only had a few months left to live.

　　It was __11__ a beautiful recipe for how to keep a marriage together. Janet?s __12__ of her husband begins like this, “Loved me. Took care of me. Worried about me.” “Helped me when I was ill.” The next __13__ reads. After that she turned __14__ the paper and added “Warmth. Humor. Kindness. Thoughtfulness.” And then she writes about the husband she has __15__ with and loved most in her life. “__16__ there when I needed you.” The last words she wrote __17__ all the others. I can see her for me when she added thoughtfully “Good friend”．

　　I stand beside John now, and cannot pretend to know how it feels to lose someone who is as close to __18__ as Janet was to him. I need to __19__ what he has to say much more than he needs to talk.

　　“John，” I ask. “How do you stick together with someone through 38 years — not to mention the sickness? How do I know __20__ I can bear to stand by my wife’s side if she becomes sick one day？”
