"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I will never understand why you decided to leave me, you were and are still my bestfriend. I don’t think you realize how much I love you. You’ve been gone for 4 years and I still struggle with it everyday. I can’t call you and tell you about everything that’s been happening and I want too so bad because so much is going on. I can’t tell you about job opportunities or school, honestly I’ve forgotten what your voice sounds like and it makes me sad. I wish you could be here watching me, I miss you every day gramma. I always find myself asking why you didn’t listen to the doctors, I guess you were just tired of life I know it can be stressful and you went through a lot but I wish that you would have decided to stay for me, anyway this is goodbye for now. I love you so much grandma.
