Denise..................wow. There are just NO words for what you've been through. I know the whole story - and I just could not ache, ACHE, for you more. Honestly, part of me wants to say GO GET your Maddie - and the other completely sees that you think she is settled and adjusted - and that this couple is in love with her. But I think back to when you lost her, and that dream....and I just can't stand her not being with you. It literally hurts - so I cannot even imagine how it is for YOU, I truly can't - because I think Maddie's story has affected me probably more than any other story here on YT.
Your heart is in the absolute most beautiful place - for all involved - and I admire that so much. You will still be in her life and I don't know if that's any consolation, but maybe it's a small one. All I can say is that you've handled this entire situation with such human grace and love - and I know it will come back to you ten fold. I am so sorry that it hurts and that it's been so difficult. I've watched you go through it all - and my thoughts have always been with you. I send you hugs and warm thoughts and my admiration.
