Dear Matthew,

I never thought I would live to see a day you don't. I don't know what I'm supposed to do, now that you don't breathe the same air we do. it all hurts so much but I know. I know that you'd be happy for me. I found him, Matthew. turns out, he's been here the entire time. I'm sure you would've loved the way he was treating me. I hope you're looking down, happy at what you're seeing.
love, your baby sister Max.
