I never imagined I would be a widow or a single mom at 36. This wasn’t my plan; this wasn’t our plan. We had a love story for the ages, one that I could never adequately put into words. He was and will always be one of my most favorite people in the world. He and I built a life we loved and we lived every single day. Shortly after his diagnosis, he told me, ‘If I don’t survive this, I want you to know I have no regrets. I have lived more in my 36 years than most people do in 80 years.’ And while his life was cut so short, he was right! Now my gremlins and I plan to continue to #LiveLikeKyle every day. We will always say ‘yes’ to adventure. We will always say, ‘I love you.’ We will continue to surround ourselves with the most amazing village of people. We will live the life we love. I don’t know what happens from here, but I know that I am not alone and I know Kyle would be proud of me – of us.”
