I remember that day I saw Charles for the first time, at the Stanford Neuroscience Institute, he seemed so calm, quiet and even a shy person. When he started his "Dance to Remember class” for people with dementia and Alzheimer's, it was all flavor and fun and I loved it. I remember our first date at karaoke. Before leaving my great-uncle’s place, my great uncle asked Charles as a ‘test’ of his genuine interest in karaoke to sing a song to test his singing skills and thus be able to go out with me. I remember that my uncle sang a romantic song popular among the ladies of his generation. Then, Charles sang the song of "Lights" by Journey "and then I sang" With the years that I have left "by Gloria Estefan. However, I can say that our love story It started on that trip to Mount Shasta in California. I thought this would be my last trip since physically I did not feel well at all. And wow, this was one of those trips that you return renewed, motivated and for me I fell in love. A short time later we became a couple. Then I met his family. Then Thanksgiving dinner came, and Christmas, and then our engagement party where my family met Charles's family, relatives came from Mexico and from various states. It was a unique, fun and healthy coexistence. On April 4, 2020, we got married at the San Thomas Aquinas Church in Palo Alto, California, where only 10 people could be present. Our parents, siblings, and friends watched us via zoom. Two years later, we had two parties: "Multicultural Social Wedding" and "Mexican Extravaganza." We really like to dance, sing, and enjoy the parties. My Honey is definitely God's promise in my life. I love you Honito!
