Hey Honey.

Hey Gary.

Why are you crying?

Because it hurts.

What hurts?

My body, my heart, being alive.

I know baby. I'm sorry.

I miss you.

Don't miss me. I'm here.

I miss you, I miss Mark, I miss so many people.

We're all here.

Are you in Heaven?

No, there is no heaven.

Where are you?

Where are you?

In bed. Alone. Peggy's here.

Well, that's where we are.

Life is hard, Gary.

I know it is. It's hard to be sick, to feel, to miss the people who used to be with you.

I get scared. I'm tired. I dreamed last night of dying.

It's all a dream.

It is?

Yes, all you do is dream about your life awake and then you sleep and you dream about your life asleep and then you die and you dream about where you don't have to dream anymore. It's ok to cry.

It is?

Yes, baby. Just cry all you want because that means you're human and one day you won't have to cry anymore because you will have left that body which gives you so much trouble.

Will you be there?

Always.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Will you hold me now?

Yes. I am. Now and now and now and now.
