Re: It's happening

Dear sweet Sue,

I am so sorry to hear that you have lost your mother to this horrid disease. I lost mine at the age of 12, so I really do know of the hurt you are feeling. You will miss your mom so much at the defining moments of your life, but know this, she lives on in you and will be there for eternity.

You are an amazing young woman Sue. My prayers to you and your family.
