Goodbyes...

... are painful, especially when you don't get to say them.

I haven't written much this week. There's a reason...

We lost a member of the family.


That's all I am really able to say right now, unless I were to short out the keyboard with tears. A piece of my heart is definitely missing, and it hurts so much I can't think or breathe sometimes.

I still don't believe it.

It's hard to imagine.

I will always love you, Ellie! Always.

B.D.O.W.
