She’s really just a sweet confused girl who needs to get some stuff straightened out for herself before getting into a serious relationship.**

I liked her, and wrote to her once even. I was very sorry to hear of her cancer, and really was hoping she would be happy someday.

I think I already mentioned her cancer is in remission. I’m just hoping for her happiness too and have told her I’ll still be there for her. She’s had a rough life and deserves some happiness.
