Roller coaster that is our frienship!! <3
Michael and I have been friends since I was 7 or 8.. A long time and its hard to believe that he was taken so soon..
If there is one thing I will never forget it is the way our frienship started.. We met in Physical therapy. Had the same therapist , Tina, he had the appointment right before mine back then.. I remember thinking he was amazing and that it would be amazing to get to know him. He was a happy person even when you could see the pain in his eyes! Sadly back then I was shy so I didnt just go up and say hi. Instead I told Tina to tell him hi for me not kowing his name I asked her to tell me. She wouldnt make it that easy, and while back then it pissed me off now I am deeply greatful, shesaid that if i truly wanted to know his name I was gonna ask him!! It took me awhile but with several pushes in that direction and very silent games of catch and races down hall on scooter boards I finally began to laugh share stories and eventually phone numbers with michael.. We became very good friends and have been ever since we lost contact a time or two because I moved but eventually we ran into eachother in highschool.. Then my Senior year I was told by someone that Mike had passed away.. I was heartbroken!! It turned out not to be true and when I found him on facebook a year or two ago it was like we never lost touch.. Mike always helps me find the light in hard times, he stood by me through thick and thin and I did the same for him the best I could. Mike knows how much he means to me so im not gonna go into any of that and while I still pray this is another cruel joke Reality is slowly setting in and there are no games of catch or scooter races that will change it.. but I will never be alone.. Mike is amazing and wil never be forgotten he pulled me out of a hole and broke my silence he changed me forever and helped form who I am and for that there is not enough words to express my thanks
