Story Transcript:

Da: I Københavns forstad Hildegade, hvor grønne blade blev gyldne og falmede ind i de kolde efterårsvinde, var Mikkel på vej til sin årlige helbredsundersøgelse.
En: In the Copenhagen suburb of Hildegade, where green leaves turned golden and faded into the cold autumn winds, Mikkel was on his way to his annual health check-up.

Da: Han gik langs de smalle fortove, som nu blev prydet med små græskar og spøgelseslignende dekorationer.
En: He walked along the narrow sidewalks, which were now adorned with small pumpkins and ghost-like decorations.

Da: Halloween var på vej, og kvarteret forsøgte at omfavne denne nye tradition.
En: Halloween was approaching, and the neighborhood was trying to embrace this new tradition.

Da: Mikkel var en mand af rutine.
En: Mikkel was a man of routine.

Da: Som arkitekt elskede han orden og detaljer.
En: As an architect, he loved order and detail.

Da: Inden for de sidste par måneder havde han følt små, uforklarlige symptomer.
En: Over the past few months, he had felt small, unexplained symptoms.

Da: En skarp smerte her, en svimmelhed dér.
En: A sharp pain here, a dizziness there.

Da: I dag ville han have svar, at få styr på sin uro.
En: Today, he wanted answers, to get a handle on his unease.

Da: Når han nåede lægehuset, blev han budt indenfor af en venlig sygeplejerske.
En: When he reached the doctor's office, he was welcomed inside by a friendly nurse.

Da: Ventetiden var fyldt med tanker.
En: The waiting time was filled with thoughts.

Da: Han spillede opmuntrede samtaler med sig selv i hovedet - "Det er sikkert ikke noget seriøst.
En: He played encouraging conversations with himself in his head - "It's probably nothing serious."

Da: "Men da lægen endelig konfronterede ham, ændrede hans verden sig på et øjeblik.
En: But when the doctor finally confronted him, his world changed in an instant.

Da: Diagnosen var uventet og skræmmende.
En: The diagnosis was unexpected and frightening.

Da: "Vi bliver nødt til at tage flere tests," sagde lægen stille.
En: "We need to run more tests," the doctor said quietly.

Da: Mikkel gik fra klinikken med et tungt hjerte.
En: Mikkel left the clinic with a heavy heart.

Da: Fortvivlelsen voksede, og et mørke truede med at overvælde ham.
En: Despair grew, and a darkness threatened to overwhelm him.

Da: Hjemme var Astrid.
En: At home was Astrid.

Da: Hun underviste altid med en kraft af optimisme, men hun havde bemærket Mikkels stille bekymringer.
En: She always taught with a power of optimism, but she had noticed Mikkel's quiet worries.

Da: Denne aften skulle have været hyggelig, de havde forberedt sig på at modtage få børn fra nabolaget og give dem slik.
En: This evening was supposed to be cozy; they had prepared to receive a few children from the neighborhood and give them candy.

Da: Men Mikkel syntes anderledes, distraheret.
En: But Mikkel seemed different, distracted.

Da: "Er alt okay?
En: "Is everything okay?"

Da: " spurgte hun, mens de skar græskarlys i køkkenet.
En: she asked as they carved jack-o'-lanterns in the kitchen.

Da: "Ja, jeg.
En: "Yes, I...

Da: jeg tror, det er fint," mumlede han, Mikkel forsøgte at skjule sin frygt, men følelserne var for stærke.
En: I think it's fine," he mumbled, Mikkel tried to hide his fear, but the emotions were too strong.

Da: Halloween-lyden af små latterfyldte børn udenfor syntes så fjern fra hans indre tumult.
En: The Halloween sound of small, laughing children outside seemed so distant from his internal turmoil.

Da: Endelig, da de satte sig ved pejsen, brød Mikkel sammen.
En: Finally, as they sat by the fireplace, Mikkel broke down.

Da: Tårerne strømmede frit, og med dem kom ordene.
En: The tears flowed freely, and with them came the words.

Da: "Astrid, jeg har fået en diagnose.
En: "Astrid, I've received a diagnosis.

Da: Jeg.
En: I'm...

Da: jeg er bange.
En: I'm scared."

Da: "Astrid satte sig tættere, tog hans hånd og sagde intet et stykke tid.
En: Astrid sat closer, took his hand, and said nothing for a while.

Da: Hun lyttede bare, hendes varme nærvær lagde ro over hans kaos.
En: She just listened, her warm presence casting calm over his chaos.

Da: "Vi finder ud af det sammen," hviskede hun til sidst.
En: "We'll figure it out together," she whispered eventually.

Da: Den nat, mens røg sloges med kølig efterårsluft, følte Mikkel en vægt løfte sig.
En: That night, while smoke battled with the cool autumn air, Mikkel felt a weight lift.

Da: Deres hus, med dets simple Halloween-dekorationer, var ikke længere fyldt med spøgelser af angst, men med en ny styrke formed af kærlighed og støtte.
En: Their house, with its simple Halloween decorations, was no longer filled with ghosts of anxiety but with a new strength formed by love and support.

Da: Mikkel besluttede at acceptere sin usikkerhed.
En: Mikkel decided to accept his uncertainty.

Da: Han indså, at han ikke kunne kontrollere alt, men han behøvede ikke at klare det alene.
En: He realized that he couldn't control everything, but he didn't have to go through it alone.

Da: Han ville kontakte sine læger, vil have klare svar og kæmpe det gode slagsmål med Astrid ved sin side.
En: He would contact his doctors, get clear answers, and fight the good fight with Astrid by his side.

Da: Med morgengløden kom en ny begyndelse.
En: With the dawn came a new beginning.

Da: Hildegade, med sine trækroner og stille charme, fortsatte som altid, men med et ekstra lag af dybde.
En: Hildegade, with its tree crowns and quiet charm, continued as always but with an added layer of depth.

Da: For som Mikkel havde lært, var efteråret ikke kun en tid for skift og vind, men en tid for fornyelse og styrke.
En: For as Mikkel had learned, autumn was not just a time for change and wind, but a time for renewal and strength.
