Nine years that you took your last breath

Nine years ago you went to Heaven. It was the worst day of my life. I cried so much n I’m still crying today because I miss you so much. Time has not healed me. Everyday I wake up missing you. Wishing you were here enjoying our time together.  We all miss you.  Ashlee reminds me so much of you. She has a baby that she loves so much just like you did yours. I remember how you would try to be strict with the older ones but you always let them have their way.  When you were too sick to drive you still wanted to go look fit Pokémon’s for Conner n Shane. I drove you to the mall n helped you along the way. You were in pain n walked slow but you were determined to get that toy for them.  that day you asked me to take you to store to buy the pets food. You thought about everybody in your home. What a beautiful kind heart you had. You loved  all your friends n would talk fondly about them. I’m glad I was there for you. I never wanted to be anywhere else but with you.  Someday I’ll be there with you again. Then I won’t cry anymore

Memories of my baby

August  22,2018.  This picture of her brings back memories. It was the start of her battle with breast cancer.  In that day she had minor surgery to have a port placed on her upper chest. When she was done she asked me if I would join her for a pedicure. I thought to myself that she sure was positive about her health and was upbeat on her day.  She fought with all her might to win her battle.  During her last month on earth and while in the hospital and in pain she looked out the window n noticed a Baskin Robbin sign. She asked me to bring her a mint chocolate ice cream. I ran across street n got it for her but when I returned to her room she was asleep.  I didn’t disturb her because I knew as soon as she woke up that she would be in pain. My Jeannette suffered so much. The worst thing for me is that I couldn’t take her pain away.       That was 2009. Now it’s 2018 n on September 3,2018 it will be 9 years that she went to Heaven.  Time has not eased my pain.  Right now tears flowing as I drive to Baskin Robbins n get a mint chocolate ice cream n sit in my car while listening to her favorite Celine Dion songs.  Missing her so much.
