Stories of Lost Children
To Chris Russo
by Rae Desmond, Louisville, KY, U.S.A.
Hi Chris, It has been a long time. I am so sorry to learn you have been unable to accept Billy's passing. You will someday, in your own time. I recently been able to look at the photos and video of Lily and be happy with the time I had with her, ever how short. I still cry and have a longing to hold her. I look at her friends and wonder how she would look now and what she would be like. She would have started kindergarten this last fall. My best friend of 17 years died last week, she fought a good battle with a terrible cancer. She left behind her only child, my daughter's best friend. She was only 51 years young. I can only think how she will now hold my child in her arms now as I hold hers here. I think of you often and pray for the day when you can remember Billy with a smile on your face without the tears streaming down it. Your friend,
Rae
