Today I lost someone I love. My friend J passed away in the Hospital surrounded by family and friends, but I wasn’t able to be there with her.
I have been crying all day. It broke my heart.
I’ve known J since grade school, and she always had a kind heart, a joyful spirit, and a welcoming smile.
She was there for me during my divorce like no one else was and I will never forget the long nights chatting and sharing. How she made me feel like I was a good man again even though I was devastated. The laughs and the love and the feeling of being seen and appreciated. No, I won’t ever forget it. For as long as I live.
The world is much darker for me today and I just want all my friends here to know that I love you and I miss you. Big hugs to each and every one of you.
Rest is Peace, my beautiful friend J.
And fuck Cancer.
