I can’t believe that a year has gone by since you passed away, my biggest hope is that you are at peace Maria, that wherever you are, the pain is long gone, that your body feels light and your spirit feels free.
I hope that you are resting in a place where the weight you carried here no longer touches you. I hope you can feel how deeply you were loved and how much you are missed and i hope you know that i would have moved mountains if it meant you could stay, i wish more than anything we could have saved you and my heart is just forever broken that we just couldn’t save you.
Even though I know you are gone, I still have yet to accept that you will never return, I wonder when it will feel real to me?
I hope you watch over us all and I hope one day I can eventually think of you without feeling so much overwhelming sadness and a constant ache in my heart, i know life has to go on but I think I will feel heartbroken forever that you are gone.
You are forever missed, sending so much love up to heaven, your loving cousin Róisín xxxxx
