Mom,
I'm sorry you had to leave but I'm beside myself with joy that insidious disease no longer has its vicious grip on you. You are whole once again and with Dad and it makes me smile every time I think about Christopher being there to greet you as well when you made your journey home. From day one you were Chris' angel here on earth, always there through all his relentless and cruel trials. Now he too is whole and his heart no longer heavy from missing you now that you are together for eternity in Paradise.
God bless Mama, I miss you and love you so much and look forward to the day I too can be with you, Dad and my precious baby boy once again.
Love,
Rob
XOXO
