No matter how many miles are between us, that love will always come through and help us stand together, find strength in each other, encourage one another, and help one another through whatever's going on.
We'll always do what we can however we can, whether it's as big as being at the hospital almost 24/7 as things are going on or as small as providing phone numbers or wake up calls.
And family transcends time. It doesn't matter how long it's been since the last conversation, how out of touch you are with one another's lives, because when it matters, you're there for one another.
One of my nearest and dearest friends -- we call ourselves twins, actually -- was able to do what I couldn't today: be with my family. I share my Pops with her and her brother. Holl went to the hospital to be with my family, and she gave my Papa a hug and a kiss for me when I couldn't. She gave me the full rundown after she left. She was literally my hands, arms, and eyes today. Words can't describe how much that helped and how very grateful I am that she could do that.
My dear friends and family, I hope you know that I couldn't live day to day without you and your love and encouragement. Thank you.
