A Life Change?

My wife has decided to have surgery, and it is just now beginning to dawn on me what a momentous decision this is. We have a list of questions to ask, of course. Looking back at these, (some of which were answered satisfactorily, some not) I begin to realize how fragile is life, and how much she means to me. We covered the mundane stuff, like whom I'm to inform, and that I'd have to take care of the dog, but never the one big question. It's still unspoken, though not unconsidered.
I'd like to stay positive about all of this, but a spate of recent hospital stays for relatives has made that a little hard.
Maybe I'll just stay with the mundane stuff and leave the future to itself. Hold a good thought for her, please.
