The next step...

Well yesterday the trial dates were set for Zach-October 1st and 2nd. My stomach is in knots at the mere thought of having to put my eyes on him. I cannot believe that it has been over a year and a half ago that we lost Don. Such a shame to lose someone SO important to so many people. I know that he is in a better place. I know that together we are going to get through this. I know that my life is forever changed because of my friendship with Don. I know that he touched the lives of so many people in an amazing way. I know that I have grown as a person through my loss of him. I know that I am thankful for Dan, Collin, Sheree and Don. I know that they will forever be a part of our family and us a part of theirs. I know that I treasure my friends even more since that fateful day. However, I still feel in the most bottom part of my heart that Don is sad and angry that he is no longer here. A very special, amazing and promising life cut way too short. Ahhh-my heart breaks just like it did when I heard the news. I wish for it to stop, but then again the pain makes me remember all of the memories of him that I will hold forever in my heart of hearts. Don-I still love you and miss you terribly-today, tomorrow and forever!
