Jodie: I love seeing all of these pictures of you and Dennis. It shines right through both of your faces how happy and in love you were. We think of you all every day and and can only imagine how difficult it must be for you not having Dennis there with you and the girls. We all miss him so much and would have given anything to help to keep him here with us. This website is helping all of us deal with losing him after the courageous battle he fought.
Auntie Thersea, Thanks so much for the kind words. Days and nights are getting harder. The reality of not having my amazing husband and my girls daddy here with us is beyond painful. I know one thing Dennis is certainly not here with us because of the lack of love and the support he got from so many. I wish it was as simple as that. You give your love and support and everything else you have inside you and the one's you love will always be okay. In Dennis and my world that was not the case. Maybe in a perfect world. Not to be such a downer I'm starting to wonder if such a world exists. As unfair as all of this is I will push myself to be there for my girls and do the best I can do. I am taking it one day at a time. I know it is normal to feel such pain over losing Dennis. We all know he was beyond amazing so why would I expect myself to feel any different about all of this. Dennis would understand my pain but would not want this to break my spirit and his girls in the progress. I'm going to try harder than ever to not let that happen. The girls and I have had enough taken away from us. I can't and won't let this take our spirit's. Thanks again Auntie Thersea for your love and support. Love Jodi, I love you Dennis, Jodi oxox
