Cards

Soon after Gina left us, when my brain was a confused muddle of random thoughts mixed in with all the shock and grief. I remember thinking that writing cards to family for birthdays and the like, would be hard. And so it is. For so long, I wrote my standard "From Pauline, Adrian, Gemma, Gina & Chris". Now, reduced to just four of us, it doesn't sound right in my head. It is incomplete and the rhythm is all wrong.
