Dear Jake,

Today is my father's birthday. He was diagnosed with colon cancer last week and is having surgery to remove tumors today. It was one year and a day ago that you and I bought Louie, you're "bouncing baby boy." I have more to add, but I'm so tired. I sleep really sporadically and never during the best of sleeping hours.

I don't listen to music anymore.

I can barely look at my horses. The things that always gave me balance now unhinge me.

As you suggested, I feel almost as if I'm learning to hate you.

It doesn't really help.
