Stephanie: Let me tell you what this shirt represents to me. Kelli died two years ago this coming Friday. People told me that the grieving could last six months. I managed to drag out hard grieving for a year. Because of my lifestyle, I was isolated from any support network. I had mile after mile after mile to think about how I was asleep at the wheel, when Kelli was giving me signals that she was having unusual pains in her body. I always internalize responsibility for things that may be out of my control. I was very alone. Since I am always time deprived (for normalcy) , I depended solely on Kelli for everything as for friendship and companionship.
I shut down in 09. I stumbled through 2010 trying to rebuild and find value in life. In 2011, I still live a transient abnormal life, but the hard grieving has subsided. It is very touching to me that (with three hours notice) someone that I never met before would put together a shirt like this. When I look at this shirt, I'm not feeling so isolated. That is something to live for.
Thank you Fairview
