Amy, our thoughts have been on you this week as you approach this particularly painful milestone. It is strange to think that one year ago we didn't know who you were. From the very first post, we were drawn deep into your story and over the course of this year have grown familiar with your journey, your pain, your life and love. Thank you for sharing yourself with us at such a deep and vulnerable level. It has been a gift we have cherished. Our hearts continue to hold you in care as you journey onward. May you be sustained by the compassionate care of your family and friends. You are a precious person and we wish you a future that finds light, love and hope. Never stop writing. - Russ & Yanna Conway, Halifax, NS

It’s a weird thing to say, but it’s been wonderful reading these newsletters because I felt like you’ve really expressed the grief, pain, isolation and the impact it has on the life of the person left behind. At times, I’ve felt my grief seen by your words in ways my friends and family cannot, and it has helped me to know that I’m not alone in the trenches. I wish you well, Amy. Thank you for writing this newsletter.
