Forever And Always
“I was thankful for the reprieve because I was emotionally dry from thinking about it. He improved over the following days. He wasn’t vomiting his food anymore, and he didn’t wake up every morning covered in a cold sweat. My time with Sean was coming to an end. At night, I indulged myself by wrapping my arms around him while I slept until the morning light broke through the windows and flooded his room.

I suspected that was the last time I would see Sean, at least for many years, and even that seemed unlikely. My whole family lived in Seattle now. There was nothing left for me in New York.
