It's a huge loss for us. It's like losing your child, like your child has died. We're not going to be able to visit her. We're not going to be able to talk to her or look at her or anything. It's going to be hard. In the morning, I love to see her smile and wake up and hear her laugh. I'm not going to have that anymore.
