My friend Laura Hurley’s Letter to Her Dearly Beloved Son, Brendan. 💔

Laura and I connected through a Facebook group about grief. Laura lost her ever so handsome son, Brendan, a little less than a year ago. Every day she writes a letter to her son, documenting her grief journey. Every post she makes is heart-wrenching, but beautiful. They all come from a place of pain and love. This is one amazing way to share her grief journey with the world. It is truly inspiring. Thank you for doing what you do, Laura. 🖤

Hey son.. day 307. Of course let me start by telling you how much I love you and miss you. I had an ok day today. I kept plenty busy and sometimes that helps. I also sent a lot of heartache and love to your uncle today. He would have been 49. He loved you very much. You were little when he passed. He was goi g to be an amazing uncle and he was so excited when you were born. I hope you guys are together and I hope you we’re definitely with him on his day. I miss you both. You both died a horrible death. The cancer just ate him up. He was beautiful just like you. A wonderful brother and a good man all around. They say God only takes the best of the best. I wish I could find comfort in that. I miss you son. Every damn moment of every damn day I miss you so much and I love you more than any year could ever express. So I will just tell you over and over on both words and my tears I love you son. You still are and always will be my baby. Stay with son. I need you as always. I love you always and forever baby boy and I will always be eternally your mom. I love you so much son. ❤️💔❤️💔❤️
