Year 2, 11Jul12
Happy belated birthday, Ichi! How time flies. You would have been 20yrs old yesterday. The precious memories of you are like a treasure chest in my mind. I hold tightly to them. Yet like the sands of time, some memories have begun to slip through my desperate fingers no matter how hard I try to catch every grain.
Yesterday, I found myself extremely busy. I'm not sure if this was a consciously or subconsciously, but I was running from 7:30am through 7pm. I threw myself into tennis for 3 hours which I rarely do especially in the Tahoe afternoon heat. Physically I was drained after the end of the day. I fell instantly to sleep last night when I laid down. Was I trying to keep myself distracted to avoid the torrent of emotions I am being battered about now? Sounds like something I would do...
Well...happy birthday girl. I hope you celebrated with g'pop, ni-ni, ree-ni, & the rest of the family. I love and miss you Ichi. Pops.

It is with great sadness, that I read your posting. I almost lost Ricardo at the end of April, he was hit by a taxi on his bike, he has a severe concusion, he has long term memory loss, he longer remembers Alicia, or as we called her uppy uppy. We have not reminded him of her passing, it was emotionally devistating for him. We all have felt a great loss.

Richard...I can not express my thoughts. My heart goes out to everyone. The brain is a fickle organ. The memories may all come back to him one day. Until then, I hope physically he has recovered.
