Nicky,
You have always held a special place in my heart. From the moment you were born, I fell in love with you. You're the youngest kid and will ALWAYS be my baby boy.
I am so proud of you. At eleven, your accomplishments take up a list longer than this article and I am impressed.
When I was planning on taking my life, you saved me.
Moments before I would have left you, my phone lit up. My phone which has you as my lock screen.
It's always been the same photo — you during a baseball game.
But, there was no notification.
At the moment where I wanted so badly to end my life, you pulled me out.
You are my reason for living.
I go to school so I can get an education and help you out. I call you every single day and ask about school. I do everything in my power to make sure you know that you have a big sister who loves you more than anything else in the world.
When I felt powerless, your hope for life brought me through. You talk about the future with stars in your eyes and I cannot wait to experience it all with you.
Thank you for being the biggest blessing I have ever received.
Thank you for saving my life.
With all of my love,
Sissy
