I have watched you slip further and further away. You hardly ever smile anymore. I miss my happy, upbeat friend. Maybe it is time to make some changes.
All that aside, what impresses me the most about you is the person of character and integrity you have become. I am very proud to be your parent.
I can only hope that moving forward you can find it possible to focus on the fond and great times you have shared and smile.
Although no two experiences are the same, I can say I that I too experienced a similar loss and I understand the depth of your sorrow. You are in my thoughts and prayers
