Title: Dear Mum...
Author: Suz
Written: Sept 28 1999
Authors Notes: This is in response to the challenge "write to Rachel"
so I thought I'd take a break from the *very* long one I am writing now
and do a nice little short [very short!] one from David...

DEAR MUM...
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mum...
I can't believe you're gone. I miss you so much. Jack told me what
happened. I hope that you weren't in too much pain. He said that he
held you tight in his arms.
He cried a lot, so did Helen, and Tayler.
Everyone misses you, they all loved you. So did I.
I wish that you were back here now, to just ring me and say that you
miss not having me around. I know that I got embarrassed when you came
to school on that last day, but
Jack told me how important it was for you to see me. He gave me some
photo's that you had in your desk too. I've got them stuck all over my
walls in my bedroom at Dads place.
Dad didn't even cry, neither did grandpa, I don't know how they
couldn't. I couldn't help crying, I just couldn't. I cried so much, I
still do sometimes.
I guess I know that you're not coming back, I still hope that you will.
I hope that I will see you again one day. I don't know where. But I
really miss you Mum. There are so many things that I want to say to
you, and to tell you... That's why Helen told me to write this letter,
and put it on your grave. I know that you can't read it, but she said
that it will make me feel better, getting everything written down and
out of my system.
I wonder if I'll ever stop feeling this way. And I'm scared that one
day
I'll forget how your voice sounds or the way you walked, just little
things like that.
I went to your work the other day with Helen. I wanted to say hello to
everyone that you worked with everyday. I don't know why I did, I just
did.
They were all so nice to me Mum, they all gave me big hugs and asked
how I was doing. It was nice.
I hope that wherever you are that you're happy, and that you're okay.
Mum I love you, I miss you so much.
Love your son David

I know it's short, really short. But I just thought I'd send it
anyways.
Send me feedback - suzie@standard.net.au - even if it's to say that you
didn't like it...
