July 6th, 1994

Dear Isabella,

This is not a letter I want to write. I don't know what to do. Sometimes, life just sucks. I am aware that I should not be writing to you like this. You are my daughter and I should not be swearing in a letter I am writing to you. But, Isabella, when I started this, I told myself that when I write to you, I would be honest with you. Even if it hurts you and or me. There is no way that this won't hurt. I was told that on July 4th, Edward and his parents were in a car accident. It does not look good for Edward. Carlisle just told me that his mother, Elizabeth, died about an hour ago. There is not a lot to go on. Even with my Police Chief cred, the local police are not telling me anything other than they were in a drunk driving accident and there is an investigation.

The Police Chief in me thinks that the timing is really odd. The Masen family was planning on moving in a month. Or should I say, Elizabeth and your Edward? Elizabeth was looking to move closer to Granny Evie because she is not doing well. Senior was for it until recently. There is a partner position that he could get and to get it, the family has to stay together. Something seems a bit off. One would think a family emergency would be a good reason to not have your wife and son with you twenty-four/seven. Maybe I am dense.

Edward, well, I will be calling him Junior from here on out, is currently in a coma. There is a chance that he might not make it. The worst part is, I have no idea what to tell you. I want to tell you the truth, but if he ends up okay, I don't want to make you feel scared for nothing. But if he dies just like Elizabeth did and you never got to say goodbye...I am not going to think negatively. He is going to be alright.

Carlisle has told me over and over again that he is getting the best care that he can. Senior is doing alright. Banged up but should make a full recovery. I am angry that he is going to be alright. His son shouldn't be suffering from his actions! His wife should not be dead! Sorry to unload on you like this. You might not get this letter after you turn eighteen. We will see if I remember to take it out.

Praying for you and your Edward.

Love always,

Daddy
