Kenma, the fact that you're reading this letter means I'm no longer with you and mom.



No, scratch that, I don't think I should start my letter with that kind of sentence. There are two things I wanted to tell you, the two things that I owe you.



I owe you an apology and gratitude. I'm sorry and thank you.



I'm sorry I didn't tell you about my illness. It's a terminal illness that eats away at my life day by day. Some days were more painful than others. I don't have long to live, but I don't know if I truly accepted it. Everyone is afraid of death after all, and even I'm scared of it. But more so than that, than being scared, I am somehow relieved that I can finally take a much needed rest.



Recently I received very wonderful news. I told you and mom all about it. I'm going to become a mom, Kenma. This is probably why I get emotional a lot. Even now as I write this, tears are threatening to fall.



The doctor told me two things.



I can either choose to get rid of this little blessing and live a little bit longer, or give birth and risk my life and die early.
