I’m thankful my loved ones are by my side. In my short stay on earth I’ve never experienced war personally, but Medley did. Sometimes a fire alarm would sound, or we hear a very loud and high pitched noise nearby, Medley would quickly become alert and wonder if it’s a missile drill. That’s not normal, I’d say. It is normal, he would say. I’m humbled by his life experiences often, and I will be by his side forever.
