Dear Lena,

Today is the day. It's your funeral. I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can sit in that funeral hall and not cry in front of everyone. But I have to, don't I? I have to do it for Noah. He won't remember this. He won't get to meet you. He won't get to love you like I love you. Loved. He won't get to see how amazing and smart you are.

I wish you were here. I wish I could have saved you. I wish I could have protected you from this. But I couldn't. This was something I couldn't save you from and for that I am so sorry. I feel guilty. I don't know how long I'll be able to last without you.

I wish you could meet Noah. He has your eyes and your beautiful smile. He's so much like you.

I have to go now, Alex and Maggie are here to take me to your funeral. I don't know if I can do it but I need to. I need to do it for Noah.

I miss you.
Your love,
Kara.
