Realization

Something has been nagging me, and it just worked it's way into my consciousness today from somewhere far below the surface.

Nick. never. said. goodbye.

After all those months of him being sick, I never dreamed it would happen so fast and we wouldn't get to tell each other things.

The whole thing is just stupid and cruel and I think you should at least get to say goodbye...

  1. Hi my friend, I have been thinking so much about you and the boys and my heart just aches. I miss Nick's emails. I miss his smart ass remarks that always made me laugh when I opened my them. I miss knowing he is there on the other side of the country, looking out on to your property. I can't imagine what you all are going thru and I agree; you should at least get to say goodbye.... I can only imagine that you are so caught up in trying to make someone better, fitting in visits from family and friends, going to the Dr's and making sure that the kids are all ok, that the time just passes too quickly. I'm sure that there were a million more things you wanted to say. There is nothing I can say to take that pain away, but know that we are all thinking of you every day and are sending you all the love you can imagine. Peace, Liz

  2. Kim: Just a quick hello to let you know you and the boys are in our thoughts-I am going to frame the photos of David, Nick and Marvin so we can always see his smiling face.

    Stay well.
    Regards,
    Sue Hill

    Kimberly, We don't know each other but I accidentally found your blog and couldn't help but be captured immediately by your heart in words.
    I can't imagine what you are going through but as soon as I read this post I just wanted to tell you that...there is a reason there wasn't a goodbye...usually goodbyes are forever, usually goodbyes are for people who may be close but not this close...not this connection and love that you both shared- I'm sure.
    There couldn't be a goodbye because he will still be there in your dreams, your heartbeat, your prayers and someday he will be waiting to show you around heaven's amazingness~

    Blessings in the midst of storms~

    Sarah, OC
