Mrs. A. emailed me today.
Hi jessica
Paul got married this past saturday. We really
missed Steve. Hope we can get together sometime. Call me when you are in
town. I look forward to your hug!
Fondly
Mrs A.
What do you write back? I let it sit lonely in my inbox for a while today until I came up with this:
Mrs. A,
I can't imagine how hard Paul's wedding must have been for all of you. Such joy and sadness at the same time. My heart goes out to you.
I'm glad you know that I think of you often, and always of course, of Steve.
If there is anything that I could ever do for you or your family. Please call me.
with love,
Jess

Hi Jess,
It was very hard. I almost made it through until, Chris, my youngest fell apart. I'd like to share when we get together. I always mean to stop by your mom's house but don't know where she exactly lives. Now that the wedding and shower are over, I may actually have time to see some friends.
Knowing that I have you as a connection to Steve, I would like to talk to you now and then. They say time heals all; don't believe a word of it. I desperately miss him with each passing day. We had a lot in common in the area of feelings, creativity and enjoying the beauty of nature. Every time I see a full moon, great sunset, beautiful leaves or listen to the falling snow, I miss him more. I feel it's the only real connection I have with him now.
I'd like to talk with you sometime too. Have you ever found your/Steve's poetry?
Take care. Say hi to your mom.
Fondly,
Mrs. A.
Oh my God.
The archive post gave me shivers, and my heart hurts so much for Mrs A. I never ever want to think about what it would be like to lose a son.
wow.
