10 Years Ago Today

Some things you never get over...

10 years ago, my life was changed in a way that I would never dreamed it could be changed.

You fought, but you lost the battle to that bastard cancer. 

You left me after 34 years of marriage.

You didn't have a choice.

It was just your time.  

Life changed to a new normal.

I held your hand as you grew cold.

Our home was filled with people in minutes after we made that first call.

I hugged our children, and we all wished that you were here.  You were gone, forever. 

Now, it's been 10 years.  I hope you found the best fishing hole in heaven!  I'm sure you did, but I'm sure it's catch and release. 

10 years is a long time, but we're okay.  We really are, it's just that there are some things you never really get over.

Thinking of you today, Miss Mallory. You are a strong and beautiful woman inside and out. You have been through much, but I can tell that you are resilient and hope-filled and that your faith carries you through those tough times. Sending you hugs and prayers. Enjoy the day. Erin
