One more

Dear Hailey,

I received a message a couple days ago from my cousin Beto (Roberto). You met him a couple times that I can remember.

He was recently diagnosed with testicular cancer. :( This was devastating news, but he is almost done with his treatment and it looks like it’s working. As far as we’ve heard, he’ll be ok. That’s such great news babygirl. He’s so young and such a good person...

But that doesn’t matter does it? We keep learning this the hard way. :(
...

I’ve always liked him. He’s close to uncle Mikey’s age and even though they grew up close in age, they would have been closer to brothers had circumstances allowed it.

Well, my Tia Maggie hasn’t been taking it too well. Even though he’s getting better, she hasn’t really returned my calls, just a few texts. I’m giving her her space but I want to show my support like she showed me...

Life is so unfair my angel. I don’t even know if he’ll be able to have any kids. :(
...

What’s been amazing is his upbeat attitude throughout. I only see updates through Facebook, but I plan to visit once he’s up to having visitors. But he seems to want to kick this thing in the butt. I pray he does.

In the meantime he sent me this and it made me love him even more. <3


This really picked me up babygirl. :)

Beto sent this to a friend who recently moved and got a
new job. It was his #raok4haikey. <3

How I’ve been feeling...
Even though the sadness I still have things to be happy about.

I’m trying to remember this my angel, just as I still remember you every single day.

I love you so much.

Forever,
Your mommy
