On September 26, after having managed to get Pieter's wedding band with diamonds and other diamond ring off—by using a trick with dental floss, Pieter brought his rings to a local jewelry repair man.
For Pieter's open heart surgery on September 3, 2010 they tried to cut it off—damaging the ring.
But it was impossible due to swelling of his fingers because of arthritis.
So now we tried and I did not manage but Pieter did lie down and tried it himself—holding his hand up and he managed it—however painful!
This is my hand on January 26, wearing my diamond ring + wedding band and Pieter's ring...
But his got messed up awfully by our local jewelry repair man!
His wife had written down the wrong size and thus it would not fit Pieter—not even on his little finger, as that was his choice due to less swelling there.
Then he called it was ready for pick up but once getting there he said, right after he'd called us, one of the diamonds had popped out...(?).
On January 26, we finally got to pick them up but to us that wedding band did not resemble the same as mine!
We had both of our rings blessed again by our Pastor (as we presumed this was NOT Pieter's original ring).
Clark Gable from GONE With the Wind seems to have been wearing his ring on the little finger...
BUT after our biking next Sunday, Pieter discovered that he lost his ring!
GONE With the Wind.... but we still maintain a double blessed and Blissful Relationship!
