Happy Birthday, Jason... It is a year ago tomorrow...

Hi Maria,

That's such a terrible loss and I can't imagine having to go through it, but you have my utmost respect for dealing with it in such a strong and graceful manner. From your post, I can tell that it's made you a stronger person and that's a good thing. You have a wonderful little girl to take care of and that's a blessing in itself. It may sound trite, but even though he's gone, you still have memories of him; preserve them and cherish them. It's better to have gone through such loss than to never have met him and fallen in love, let alone have a beautiful child with him.

Keep on trucking and stay strong, sweetheart.
