Like, we talked...

out endlessly about everything we challenged each other about everything it was the first time that I felt someone push back and I felt myself grow intellectually because of it and so that was something that I didn't take lightly and I thought you know what like you and I can do this together like we can figure this out together that's that was naive you know like that I could crack the code on cancer but that was what I felt like together we were invincible we could figure it all out

Yeah, I mean, we... Damien was always hesitant, for sure.

And I think it was something that I had... Like, we had always wanted to have kids.

I think the part that was challenging was that level of uncertainty.

Like, we don't know what's going to happen and when it's going to happen.

But nothing had happened for eight, nine years.

And we... Everything that had happened, we'd navigated it successfully and we're continuing on.

So...

I think we decided that, yes, this is something that we want to do.

If we're going to do it, we're doing it together and that, again, we can figure this out together.

The highs, the lows, the messy parts, the good parts, it's all worth it for this relationship that we have and the connection that we have and bringing another soul into that space is only going to energise us to work much harder to figure this out together.

Yeah.

Yes.

And she is full of life, that's for sure.

So unfortunately last year we had quite the experience.

It was one of those periods of time where you're like, is this happening to me?

It's traumatic when I look at it from the outside.

So...

So essentially Damien's seizures started to progress and get worse and worse.
