After Jaxson's Memorial January 26th, I spent the weekend in Texarkana. I headed back to Dallas late Sunday afternoon happy with how Jaxsons Celebration had turned out but still feeling hollow inside. Monday I go to the apartment to pick up a package only to find out that since Jax passed away and even though [...]

Amy was right. She was right when she told me I would be lost. She was right when she said I would have to find myself. If you ask me now, "Kandiss....Who are you?" I would not be able to answer. If you would switch the word are to were then I could tell you. [...]

Sometimes, I want to run away to never return until I realize that I am responsible for a kid...my kid.

Today is just one of those days. I'm having anxiety, sadness, anger and I could not tell you why. I think it may  have been triggered because I had to retake Jaxson's  broviac line 3 times. I feel like I could go outside cry hysterically and scream. I think I'm one of those people that [...]

There is the overwhelming feeling that comes over me whenever I think of you. To keep my sanity, I have to pretend like the day you left me never happened so I can manage throughout the day. And even doing that is tough. Because how could I ever forget that day. I am horrible at [...]

I decided to not count how long you have been gone anymore because no matter how long it has been, the way I feel will not change based off of time. ( maybe in some years I will feel differently). Today I woke up feeling tired, just tired, and my throat felt funny but, I [...]

I miss how you would just wrap your arm around my neck and rest your cheek on mine. How you would stretch your arms apart after I asked "How much do you love me?". I miss you face timing me while I was working to ask for Sprite, Coke, Funyuns, a happy meal, and a [...]
