Elizabeth Edwards
If you know someone who has lost a child, and you're afraid to mention them because you think you might make them sad by reminding them that they died-you're not reminding them. They didn't forget they died. What you're reminding them of is that you remembered that they lived, and that is a great gift.
Elizabeth Edwards
I want to reclaim who I am.
Elizabeth Edwards
I don't expect to get yesterday's medicine. If I can help it, I'd like to get tomorrow's medicine.
