3 months Nana I miss you so much. About 6 months ago I told my Nana I got excepted to the Disney College Program and told her I was moving to Florida. She told me "Ayy Mijo that's so far I'm gonna miss you, who's gonna come visit me" I told my Nana "Nana it's only 6 months I'll be back I'll call and Face Time you" I then reflected and thought maybe I shouldn't go how could I leave my Nana. 3 months later is when my Nana became sick and I told her I wanted her to see me come back from Disney and show her everything I've been doing. She looked at me and said "I love you" she passed about a week later and I just knew I had to go to Disney and try it out not only for me but for my Nana cause that was one of the last things I told her I was gonna do -Your Niko

20 years of celebrating our birthdays together and this year we have to celebrate separately and I have to get use to it. I knew one day I'd not hear the story of how the stupid doctor
rescheduled my birth for the 9th when I was supposed to be born on your birthday the 6th but I never prepared myself for it. Happy Birthday Nana. I Love you Forever and Always Mijita -Your Niko

A piece of my heart was taken today and will never be recovered. My best friend and Nana will be taking her enternal sleep and will wake up in heaven. I prayed and hoped and had faith that she'd recover but she kept saying that she was tired and prayed that god would take her. I couldn't be selfish anymore and began to prepare myself to loose my best friend, and today was the day. Every problem every wish every dream I told her and she'd be there to listen and l'd listen to her about the dreams she had for us and I told her that we would make her proud she told me she was already proud of all of us grandkids and I promised I'd tell my primos hermanos. She then asked I hope you had a great childhood Mijo and said I had the best childhood a kid an ask for. I love you Nana forever and always my Best friend my Confidont my Therapist my Cupid MY ANGEL -Your Niko
