This Pride Month, I want to share a story that means everything to me. This photo was taken the night my incredible nephew Frankie got engaged to his fiancé, Andrew. A night that should have been nothing but joy and celebration. But that same evening, my husband was rushed to the ER—where we received the life-shattering news that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 non small cell adenocarcinoma. Frankie and Andrew, newly engaged and with every reason to be somewhere else, chose to spend the late hours of their engagement night in the emergency room with us. Frankie is a pulmonary critical care doctor—and he is one of the reasons my husband is still here with us today. Frankie and Andrew are two of the most selfless, compassionate people I know. Their love for each other is beautiful. Their love for others is extraordinary. Pride is about love, yes—but also about courage, resilience, and showing up. Frankie and Andrew show up in ways that change lives. This month, and always, I am so proud to celebrate them. 🏳️‍🌈💙
