If Only

Dear Me,

Your mom has cancer. Convince her to get a screening now so they catch it earlier. Maybe it'll make a difference.

When things get really stressful, and they will, hang in there. Don't leave.

Your son is struggling. Stay connected. The next few years are going to be the hardest of his life and he needs you.

Also, you're going to meet the love of your life. You'll know him when you meet him. Don't be afraid to involve him in your life; with your son. He's a good man and he'll make a positive difference.

Read this letter a few times and take it to heart. Brace yourself. Pray. You're going to get through this.

Me
