Finding special moments.....
May 11,
2008 will mark the two years since Derek's passing. The mixed emotions I felt remembering the moments just
before he took his last breath on this earth, trying to always stay dedicated to all my children, as well as the promise
I made to Derek has kept me going. I knew as his mom it was my responsibility to make sure that he knew, without a shadow
of a doubt, that I loved him unconditionally, even at the most frustrating moments. I look forward to being in Washington
D.C. this year sharing my journey with those on Capital Hill. I will never forget those precious last moments with Derek and
I know that because of the "Sacramento Bee" willing to share such a raw and real story that it has personally
inspired me to continue making an impact to so many. I believe there isn't one day that goes by when I hear from
so many through e-mails how much they appreciate my choice to share our journey. I know from the bottom of my heart it was
the right thing to do. I'm so excited to say that I am working with on my book and am hoping it will be out by next winter.
I can't wait to share so many intimate thoughts and personal journey through all of it.... There are so many along the
way that have been an inspiration to me and to be honest with you I could never possibly express my gratitude to all of you.
Thanks to all who have joined us in making all this happen. Together we will make a difference.
