Hello Ben ~ I find this time is very special to me as I can speak with you and I know you will find a way to let me know your thoughts. Monday was not a good day for me, I found myself curled on your bed with puppy and Bikky. I cried so hard my eyes burned. I don’t very much like the way life is without you here. The weekdays are especially long and lonely. We had as you know a beautiful tribute to you last month over at Ann Van. Both your Uncles Jimmy and Don came to celebrate your life with us which was a real treat. Uncle Jimmy is very proud to have the lighter I bought you from the Caribbean. We had cigars in your honor. Dad has been very diligently working the BTFMovement in your honor. I know we can reach a lot of young people and hopefully reduce if not end the demand for opiates. I don’t want to turn anyone away. It bothers me when people speak or judge without understanding. They use terminology for this disease that I will never understand. I have even had firsthand experience of organizations that profess to help; turn away those in need because they tried already once or twice. Don’t they realize that where there is LIFE there is HOPE? Tough love can be a death sentence. Get their noses out of the books and get in the trenches; fight for life. Every case is different. What may have worked for some may not work for others; so keep looking until you find something that does work. Tomorrow is Poppie’s anniversary Ben. Not sure what or if anything happens where you’re at. How about spend some time with Pops, challenge him at a game of Donkey Kong and have a drink at Uncle Jimmy’s bar. Put it on my tab! I want to end with a song that your cousin Tess heard. She thought of you and sent it to Dad and me. I’d like to share it here. Love you Benchu ALWAYS and FOREVER ~ Mommy
