Embracing life with chronic pain and illnesses.

Love You Forever and Always

One year ago today our lives changed forever. Our hearts stopped that day….broken….with many tears shed….
Disbelief…emptiness…hollowness inside…yet a quiet strength permeated the air….

For our Dad…a special blessing had been given…”It Is Well With My Soul”…giving strength to endure the as yet unknown….

That phone call will forever reverberate in my heart and soul…falling short…not able to protect you as I had sworn to do…

Knowing that I had to get to you as quickly as possible….to be by the side of your boyfriend…

You gave me insight…I cannot explain…to hug you and hold you….to kiss your brow…to touch you and stroke your hair….

In my mind I kept pleading…just sit up…open those beautiful blue eyes…I kept waiting for you to start laughing…to show that you truly had the last laugh….

This past year has brought heartaches…restless nights…soul searching…pain…laughter…joy…tears…

Each of us is walking a path….not the one that we had hoped for…..not the one we had dreamed of…..

Each of us has been struggling as we have been forced to face a reality…a new reality without your physical presence. 

I may be laboring the fact…it is just so hard to express…to share the depth of the void that I now have….the hollow space within me that will forever be vacant…until we are reunited…

I do treasure the wonderful relationships…the friendships…the endearments you have forever joined….

Yet…I know that each of us would gladly give our today and tomorrow…for one more precious day with you!

I love you so much! Love you…forever and always!!!
