They met the modern way—on a dating app, where she was charmed by his competitive spirit, and he couldn’t resist her dog’s profile picture. Their first date was supposed to be a laid-back game of bowling on a quiet Monday night, but those plans quickly unraveled when they arrived to find every lane occupied by an enthusiastic troop of Boy Scouts working on their merit badges. With no pins to knock down, they laughed it off and headed to the bar instead, where beers replaced bowling balls, and sparks flew faster than a gutterball on lane 7. From there, their relationship took off—bonded by board games, long walks with the dogs, and a surprising amount of hospital visits, including a gallbladder removal and the time Cameron got hit by a car (don’t worry, he walked it off—eventually). Through it all, their connection only grew stronger, proving that love shows up in the most unexpected places... and sometimes wears a hospital bracelet.
