Oh Baby Girl we miss you so much and our heart aches all the time. We know you are at peace now and no longer in pain as you've suffered for so many years and now that suffering is over. We are doing our best day by day to continue our lives but they will never be the same without you, your beautiful smile, hugs and kisses. We love you so very much.

Hi Sissy
I can't believe that it will be 6 weeks tomorrow that I haven't been able to hear your voice, see your beautiful smile or listen to you laugh. I miss you more than words can ever express. I started counseling last week to try and help me cope with this HUGE loss in my life. I feel broken and alone even though I have mom, moco, and brother with me but I don't have my 1st best friend, my sissy! Moco had to have surgery last night and I just kept telling you to just send him back to us if he tried to come see you, so thanks for sending him back to us. I will always miss you and I love you so much sissy. Kiss daddy & Eddie for me. Rest in Paradise Beautiful❤

It's been 4 weeks sissy......4 weeks and I still can't process this, still can't accept that you are really gone! I miss you so much, I know that you are no longer in pain and that you are with Eddie and happy to be reunited with him and dad, but I am selfish and want you here with me! I want you here still making memories with all of us, not us remembering all the memories of you. We all love you so much and miss you so very much. Rest in Paradise my sweet beautiful sister. I will love and miss you forever!

What do I do now that your gone? I can't think straight, I just go through the motions of my day to day routines but it's not the same. I love you sissy I miss you sissy.

Moco and I are so lonesome and miss you so much. Our lives will never be the same without you in it. You are now at peace and without all the pain you've experienced in your short life. Hugs and love to everyone that was waiting with open arms for your arrival.
We love you Baby Girl
