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. Definitely my Honey is God's promise in my life. I love you Honito!
