Michael and I met in 2019 right after I had graduated nursing school. My new job in the emergency department required me to have a shift at the local fire department, where I met Michael on the ambulance. It was a really slow day at the fire department, and I remember him being so shy around me! Him and I sat together in the living room of the fire station for about an hour watching Ridiculousness, laughing out loud but not saying a word to each other. We still love that show. It took about two years waving at each other in passing at the hospital that he finally reached out to me. He dropped off a crazy, combative patient to me in the ER and used that as his excuse to get my phone number. And the rest is history! We now own a beautiful home together with a house full of animals we adore, and can't wait to officially start our forever together.
