“We’re innately built as survivors,” she explained. “Most of us enter the world, kicking and screaming. Sometimes, at the end—even when our bodies are horribly weak and we know it’s our time to go—our minds and hearts are still kicking and screaming to stay with the people we love.”
“Sometimes I feel like . . . like I only really breathe when I’m with you.”
“Sometimes, we have to be strong and selfless and tell our loved one it’s okay to leave us.”
