I devoted my life to our kids. It sure did a lot of good. I wish I would’ve done everything differently. I miss you. I did the best I knew how. I love you my eternal companion. We will be together again someday. I don’t understand how others think it’s going to be. Because you chose me. We will be with each other. They can’t just treat me terrible and think they can justify it. You are NOT okay with it.
