Here. Gone. So hard to believe. I’ve experienced loss a time or two, but not so close to home. You meant to call, and you’re used to knowing where they are, but just like that. Snap. Gone. No more conversations, shared memories to laugh our way through to just plain silly. No more cajoling. No more “love you bro’”, birthday cards, or me picking because she was just plain organized. No more comparisons or long chats. No more long calls at opportune times, and not. What now?

Gone. There. Just like that. I’ll welcome Hunter to the world for you. Stand in for your kids as much as they need. I’ll be there for all your grands. You are going to miss so much! I will miss more than I can even comprehend.

There. Now. What is it like? Someday. No more tears, sorrow or pain.

Goodbye. Love you sis!
