Dear Jake,

You visited me today, after my doctors appointment. "How did you know about it?" I asked. "Your mom told my mom in their book club," you mumbled, and I laughed. The doctor said I have a stomach illness. It isn't really that bad, but still...I'm glad you came, bringing movies for us to watch. I especially loved the one about the true story of a girl who was gonna die from a disease, but then she fell into a tree trunk and was healed. The movie was called Miracles From Heaven. You even cried, and I snuggled in your arms. The cutest thing was when I felt your arm wrap around my shoulder. Then we fell asleep, and when I woke up, you were staring into my eyes.

Love,

The Not-So-Sick Kennedy
