Derrick lived in a quiet suburb with his family. Everything seemed perfect until his mom was diagnosed with cancer. It was hard for Derrick to see her go through chemo and radiation. She would often say, " - Always remember, I'm with you no matter what." Derrick felt a heavy cloud of worry over his heart.
One day, Derrick's mom asked him to help clean the attic. While sorting through old boxes, he found a letter addressed to him. Excited, he started reading it. " - This looks important," Derrick whispered to himself. The letter spoke of a special memory they shared but was incomplete!
Derrick wanted to find the rest of the letter, but his first obstacle was finding time. School was busy, and he had homework piling up. " - I don't know how I'll do everything," he said to his friend. His friend suggested asking for help. Derrick wasn't sure who to ask.
Back at home, Derrick faced another obstacle. His mom's health had worsened, and she needed more care. " - I need to be strong for her," Derrick thought. He felt torn between his tasks and supporting his mom. The letter seemed to slip further away.
One weekend, Derrick decided to search the house for clues. He checked every room but found nothing. Feeling defeated, he sat on the porch. " - It's hopeless," he murmured. His heart ached, and he missed the joy they used to share.
Derrick felt like giving up. He wondered if maybe the letter wasn't that important. " - I'll never find it," he sighed to himself. But a small voice inside him whispered to keep trying. Could he really let it go?
As Derrick sat thinking, a family friend came to visit. She noticed Derrick's worried look. " - Is something bothering you?" she asked gently. Derrick explained about the letter and his mom. She smiled, " - I think I can help you find it."
The family friend revealed she had a copy of the letter's missing piece. " - Your mom wanted you to have this," she said. Derrick felt a wave of relief wash over him. " - Thank you," he said, tears in his eyes. The letter told of a memory that made him smile.
With the complete letter in hand, Derrick felt a newfound strength. He read the loving words from his mom, feeling her presence. " - I'll always remember," he said aloud. Derrick promised himself to cherish every memory they shared. He knew honesty and love were his greatest gifts.
Derrick shared the letter with his mom, who smiled warmly. " - I'm proud of you," she said softly. Although her health was fragile, Derrick felt her love stronger than ever. The letter reminded him of the importance of honesty and love. Derrick knew he would always carry his mom's spirit with him.
