And I'm not dumb enough to think that I can undo that, that anyone can. But I can't wrap my mind around the notion of you not getting old, having kids, going to Juilliard, getting to play that cello in front of a huge audience, so that they can get the chills the way I do every time I see you pick up your bow, every time I see you smile at me. ↗

So I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It's okay if you have to leave us. It's okay if you want to stop fighting. ↗
