Watching From Heaven
Just look at him down there, he never left David's side after I died. Just knowing he's there makes me very happy.
Their friendship has always been a strong one, when one hurts, the other is just as devastated. I love how close the two of them are and I always knew that if David had to choose between us, it would be Hutch. I didn't mind though, I was secure in knowing David had enough love for both of us.
When I died, I went peacefully, knowing Hutch would be right there to hold David up. Hutch was even going to give up his life as a cop…to play professional football! Now, that put a smile on my face. I knew neither of them would leave the force, it's in their blood and their hearts are too good.
I know it hurt David when I died that day. He laid his head down on me and cried, I could hear his thoughts and it broke my heart to go. He thinks he will never fall in love again but I know better, he loves hard and that's also in his blood.
The day I was buried I heard him question God. He wanted an answer as to why his beautiful, kind hearted Terry had to die. And, Hutch was right by his side with a strong hand wrapped around his shoulder.
When the doctor told me the bullet couldn't be removed, I knew I needed to come to terms with it all. So, I started making arrangements. I wanted Hutch to know what he meant to me. After all, he loved David just as much or maybe even more than me. So, I wrapped up Ollie, my favorite stuffed animal. Ollie, who I had held tight many nights crying and wanting my own answers from God. I wrote Hutch a note telling him I was trusting Ollie and David to him. I knew he would understand, I saw the smile through his tears and my own heart melted. For David, I left him a book on how to win at Monopoly. He could never win at the game, no matter how many times we played.
My heart swells with pride when I look down and see them together. Knowing they are both going to be OK and they will always stand with each other, I can now move into the light.
Always stay Me and Thee guys and nothing will break you apart.
Goodbye my sweet boys, I will always be in your hearts…
