Aunty Andrea

she stood strong through it all my aunty Andrea. she made it look easy even though she knew it wasn't. I know he's proud to have called you his mum aunty Andrea and he's finally at peace. years will go by fast and slow but one thing you should always know is that he loved you more then life as I say to my mum "to the moon the stars and back". spring turns to summer and summer into autumn  and from there its winter. thank you Scott for soldiering onwards threw the final battle know now in your sleep that they have honoured you with greatest of metals and the fight will soon end. we may not be on the winning end but know this... we will not stop until the battle is won

This is a powerful story! and the attached article is - whoa. My dad passed away 16 years ago to colon cancer, so I in some weird way relate very much to this. I'm sorry for the loss....when I read the story, I could have sworn it had to do with having been killed in battle, especially with the last line, but after reading the article, I realized it was something much more profound. Love the message of the last little section: we will definitely not stop until the fight is won....whatever the fight may be (I've been dogged in my stance for years - it's high time I be out of the shadows, and soon shall I be). So awesome execution of the story and great message. Did you read this to her after writing this?

Just a couple of spelling and grammar mistakes I noticed:

- "she stood strong THROUGH it all ("threw" is past of "throw")
- "on ward" is one word.
