"Dear Mom,
Tomorrow is my birthday and all I can think about is
that I am not going to get my 7:49 a.m. phone call
from you. I wish I could hear your voice one more time.
I am going to try to enjoy my day because I know
that is what you would want me to do, but I
hope you know I will thinking about you and missing
you. Thank you for all the birthday calls in the
past and for making me feel so loved. I was a very lucky
girl. I'll let you know how it goes. I love you, Momma! Bye for now!"
