I was going about my normal day when I thought, I should see if Kim wants Kris to come and do her nails again. I sent off a message and got a response much quicker than I am used to getting. She said she would love it if she could come again. She then said she had to tell me something and ask a favor. I of course said absolutely.
She told me that she is no longer able to write. Her hands are too weak to hold the pen anymore. Kim is devastated. She has not finished everything she wants to write yet. I knew what the favor was going to be before she even said it. I immediately said I would love to help her finish whatever it is she needs done. She said she hasn't finished the book about herself yet that will go to her daughters.
I didn't even have to think about it....she didn't even have to ask if I would do it. I will not let cancer take away her ability to tell her daughters whatever it is she needs to say. I will not let it leave something Kim wants done incomplete.
My thoughts shifted to wether or not my handwriting will look nice enough...maybe I should practice writing what she wants me to write before I actually put it in the book. I don't want to make spelling mistakes or have scratch outs. I know I can't write like her, so her daughters will know someone else wrote in it for their mom.
It is such an honor to be able to do this for her. Honestly, it will probably be one of the most important things I do in my life. I need to do this, and do it right.
