Love Rhyleigh xoxox


Chel was the last person on Nathan's list- and the hardest for him to write to. The whole reason he was sitting at the desk, writing, was because of her. It was his idea to get the transplant in the first place, his idea to give away his kidney. She hadn't asked- she had tried to refuse, because it was a gift she had needed, but hadn't wanted from her grandson. Chel hadn't been a part of the mishmashed Rafter clan for very long, but it seemed she had been there for years.

So, racking his brain, he picked up the pen for the last time.

Dear Chel,

I know we haven't known you for that long- but it seems like we've known you forever. You're our grandma- part of the family. I know you didn't want me to do this- you said it was too much of a gift. But I wanted to do this, Chel. I don't care what the others said; it was my gift to you.

So, Chel, use it well. Enjoy life. Life is a gift in itself.

All the love in the world,

Your grandson,

Nathan

Nathan smiled, capping his pen and sealing the envelope. There were risks in everything- crossing the road, as he had pointed out to his father. He knew the risks of the surgery he and Chel were going to undertake- he had discussed it with the therapist often enough. But he knew, that if anything had happened, he was covered. He had a family that loved him, no matter what he did, and he was going to make sure they knew just how much he loved them.
