Sometimes I still hear him calling after me you would sit on the ground and we would let Jasmine keep circling us like him and sheep dog David what I Loved the most about you is that you knew no stranger. We had our share of ups and downs and I thoroughly enjoyed snuggling with you in the hospital bed and you just tell me all the stories I love that part I miss you every day every second because I know that if you were here will be helping me get through this horrible part of life I´m going through keep holding me close you were the first man to tell me that you loved me unconditionally with pride and we made a great scene I wish I could just hear you saying that you always said to me before we went on the stage you would say Melissa you´ve got this you can do this snapper them it´s for our god David you have taught me so much and I´m so grateful but you did not teach me how to live without you as a whole gizmo he´s gotten so different remember when we went to pick them up and he looks like a pumpkin and I was so excited to call him pumpkin butt we watched gremlins at night and headed to the different name next day I named him perfect so I better get off here I better let you go back to your amazing life and if this transplant doesn´t work I´ll be right behind you in just a small a while I love you now I loved you then and everywhere in between remember my saying to you reach for the stars you could probably just hold them in your hands free now please pray for me I have three organs that are a definite need and I have two more that I won´t know till I get in there I´m sure God I´ll keep you posted enjoy my husband my love my best friend
