17 years ago today. I remember the shock. I came across your last email to me a few months ago and the loss I've felt came sharply into focus again. I don't know how to say any differently how much you're missed. There is so much I want to say and don't know how to say it without sounding trite. I'm just looking forward to seeing you again. I love you.

Well, June 8, 2024. I’m still here doesn’t feel like I’ll ever believing. I thought I was close to it with these last weeks in the hospital and not knowing what I have still don’t know what I had but I’m starting to feel better so I guess I’m staying ready. He would send me until then. I just sit here missing you. I really hate missing you and really hate waiting to come there. I really feel like a failure. I can’t do anything to help Holly who really needs it. Crystal has really become Crystal. She stays away from the family. She has been there this couple weeks with me. Family doesn’t get along anymore. Hazel’s off New Orleans sick with Covid can’t help there stuck here. I do have the bright spot of Edon here for the week but he’s getting too old now he’s done with grandma. I think he’s ready To hang out with friends, I’m not grandma anymore. But he does pretend. and I let him think it so that he he thinks I’m happy. But I know God’s timing is right and I’ll be there when he’s ready. Just saying I love you and I miss you. And it doesn’t get any easier.
