"I love you," she replies, utterly sincere, every ounce of emotion suffusing her voice. "So much. I'm so lucky to have you." She can't imagine...or doesn't want to imagine...going through this without him. Sherlock would take care of her, and would be attentive to her needs, but there's something wonderful to be said for going through this while being cared for by a man who loves her so completely, who will take care of her basic needs while also kissing her and holding her while she sleeps.
She glances at their hands, wanting to kiss his hand as well, but she decides it might be too much for her strength right now. So instead she looks up at him and smiles.
