My beautiful and sweet daughter. I can never sleep now, and was going through emails between us since 2010 when I lost my other email account and got the one I use now. I wish I had the ones from that one to read again.
Nothing will ever be the same here. You were the one and only who knew how it all was in our lives, and we could talk about everything and always did. People really don't get that.
I never got that tamale recipe to you in time.
I found this lovely picture you sent in one of the emails and didn't see it before sending the photos for the memorial video.
This all still feels surreal. I think it is easier for me to fool myself this didn't happen at all. You should still be here and I would give up everything for you to be back and healthy in mind and body. I love and miss you.
Love always,
Mom
