I am so sorry your childhood was clouded by this grief. Know that your cousin Jack loved and adored you. One of his first words were "Dee" and "Olly" for both of you. How excited he would get to see you, how he loved being with you.
I am sorry that you had to experience this loss, this sadness, this tragedy. It isn't fair, it isn't nice and it isn't easy.
I hope you remember Jack and are able to share stories about him with Will, Nora and Liam. Like the time your "babies" needed a Mickey button and feeding pump. How we used to tape heart monitors to your dolls feet, just like Jack. How Kate drew pictures of Jack with "blue lips". How you believed you had a little cousin, without seeing him for 47 days. How you loved being the "big cousin".
I love you both and can't wait to see what wonderful women you grow up to be. Thank you for letting me be "aunt bee bee"... the coolest. :)
