Sunday, February 4, 2007 0:07 AM CST I know, I didn't update on the angel date this year. Sometimes it is so hard to know what to write. Nathan has now been gone 5 years, how is it possible that that cute little face has been gone for as many years as we had him with us? Most of the time by now, I do ok, but there are still those unexpected times when the tears well up, and I think "why" and realize there is still a hole in my life, my heart, and our family without him.
It's especially hitting me tonight, as I read the caringbridge site of the daughter of a friend of mine, who is fighting for her life in Meritcare. She has a smiliar situation to Nathan, but not the same diagnosis.
I am overwhelmed when I look at the guestbook from Nathan's angel date and all the people who still remember that date and check in with us. It really means a lot to me.
