| − | ''I do not know if this letter will reach you, but as I am writing this I fear that we may never see our son again. Today I was given the opportunity to see him... to embrace our beloved son in my arms once more. Instead, I was standing before a fence, and on the other side were our children. My love, if you were there at that moment, you would understand how I feel as I am writing this letter. The son that we raised to be strong, kind and generous was standing before me, yet his eyes were devoid of life. I can scarcely imagine the horrors they did to him ever since they took him... nay... ever since they stripped him away from our arms. I was hoping he would recognize me, or maybe even shed a few tears as I was... But at that moment, I was scared that he was not our son anymore.

Both of you are the most precious things in my life, and yet it is as if we are living in three separate worlds. Am I asking too much? Is living with the ones I love a luxury these days? I try to stay strong; I have to hope that our son is well, that that we will live as a family once again in the future. Hope is the only thing that keeps me sane.''

While he is strong, kind and immensely generous, he is also naive, obstinate and... slow in certain areas at times. However, I am convinced Senel will overcome this obstacle, for he is a Curtis and he will carry on our legacy for the rest of his life, with all the love and care we gave him. I just hope... that he will never forget us...
