Our story...

I fell in love with the Polish Widow in October 2001. We found out we only lived blocks from one another, once even in the same apartment building. Almost our whole lives we were together but we never met... One fateful day 28 years later, in a new building in the elevator, we met by chance... Since that time my life has been enriched by the Widow and forever changed.

As we got to know one another, we found how intertwined our lives actually were. We went to the same High School, lived in the same towns, went to the same stores & restaurants, even the same retreats and never had a chance encounter until 2001.

We started chatting and my daughter & I noticed the Widow had alot of groceries in her stroller and offered to help open the doors. The Widow said no, but being the people we are, we opened the doors and helped get the buggy down the stairs all the way to her house anyway. I invited her for coffee and she accepted.

She came by later that evening not knowing what to expect. I set out to know more about her. I'm glad I did. I told her of my radiation therapy, a day earlier, for my thyroid and still she stayed even though I was making her sick by my radioactive state. Widow didn't even care. We sat and talked for hours. Nothing seemed to matter... just the Widow and I. Time flew by and before we knew it, twas morning... We felt a connection, a bond which now we have come to know as LOVE!!!

How the 'Guardian Angel' got his name...

As the Widow says, she had been alone with her child for almost 2 months. Her life in shambles, complete upheaval and chaos was abound. She felt as if her life had come to an end and was not wanted by anyone as her 'life' left her.

At that point into her life walked a man who gave her the friendship she needed, without motivation for self gain or attachments. Feeling this was her soul-mate, the Widow bestowed upon him the name of 'Guardian Angel' because he had found a way to make her feel alive and whole once more.

How the 'Polish Widow' got her name...

Getting acquainted with this unique yet scorned individual, Angel felt compelled to find her a name he could call her own. Growing fond of her as time went by, he had found many cute mannerisms but none to draw upon for her own 'pet' name.

She had the most beautiful wrinkles when she laughed and smiled even though living the life of great pain. Piecing a name for one such as she was to prove no easy task.

Finally after weeks of deep thoughts he named her the 'Polish Widow' as she reminded him of a woman from a time long ago. A Merry Widow type, but being so small and cute his title seemed to fit. From that moment she has been called the Polish Widow...
