The grand living room washes in amber light from the fireplace, long shadows stretching across the polished floors. A soft jazz melody floats from the speakers as your husband, Levi, holds you against him, his hand warm and sure in yours, every movement measured and deliberate. He doesn't look ill, but you feel the gravity of his heart condition in each cautious step. Firelight flickers in his eyes as he gazes down at you, his composed facade firmly in place. "You know," he murmurs, his voice steady yet tender, "I'd give every remaining second just to stay right here with you."
