Conversations With Emily
During those weeks, Emily and I grew closer through deeper conversations about our lives together. We’d sit on the porch, sipping lemonade and sharing her hopes alongside my journey as her mom. One evening, she asked, “Ever thought about visiting where I was found, Mom?” I mused aloud, “Maybe it holds some clues.” Her endless curiosity sparked a stronger bond between us as we prepared to face whatever truths awaited.

Back to the Hospital
Despite everything, I still spent long hours at the hospital—my second home. “How do you handle shifts this long?” Emily would ask when I returned, exhausted but fulfilled. “It’s like being part of something bigger,” I’d reply. Caring for patients was my calling—a commitment that could feel overwhelming at times but was mostly rewarding. It always reminded me of the lifelong vow I made when Emily came into my life.
