Julia\u2019s world shattered into a million pieces when her husband Tom was diagnosed with cancer. Sadly, the prognosis was bleak and he left her for another world just two months later.<\/p>\n
Though her heart ached, she knew she needed to remain strong for her son Rob who was still very young and devastated by the loss of his dad.<\/p>\n
Months passed by, and the grief only grew stronger, but then, Tom\u2019s brother, Mike, became part of Julia\u2019s and Rob\u2019s life. Julia knew that Mike felt something for her since childhood, but she chose Tom and never looked back.<\/p>\n
However, Mike\u2019s presence in their life started feeling good so Julia made a decision to marry him and give her son a father figure.<\/p>\n
Mike and Rob seemed to grew fond of one another. Well, at the end of the day, Mike was Rob\u2019s uncle, and he was now also his mother\u2019s husband.<\/p>\n
Julia worked a lot, and whenever she would return home, Mike would tell her how he and Rob had a fantastic day going hiking, visiting the park, or doing other fun stuff together.<\/p>\n
However, one day, upon arriving home, Julia stumbled upon unusual silence. She wondered if everything was okay when Mike approached her, hugged her, and told her Rob was gone leaving a letter.<\/p>\n
In the letter, then 15-year-old Rob wrote:<\/p>\n
Dear Mom and Dad,<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve decided to leave because I thought it would be better for everyone if I wasn\u2019t around to bring up more bad memories and sorrow. Please understand that this isn\u2019t because of anything you did, but a decision I felt I needed to make for the sake of peace at home. I promise to take care of myself and hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me someday. Remember that I love you both, and this is the hardest choice I\u2019ve ever had to make.<\/p>\n
Take care,<\/p>\n
