Dear X:
You can do this. I know it's hard and painful and gutting. There are strings of moments when you believe it will destroy you. There are times when it doesn't seem so ominous, but you merely think it will just chip-chip away at your core ever so slowly but with infinite precision. I know those times are even harder to take. I hear you.
Swallow. Take deep breaths. Soak in a bubble bath. Then drink some tea or some coffee and have at it. You're stronger than this.
Remember the tears glinting at the corners of his eyes.
Remember his earnestness, the stress of these things undone eating away at him so much more than he will share.
You know if you fail him again his faith will be corroded. I know that's making this into a mountain and terrifying you before you even begin. I'm here for you, to love and support you along the way - whatever happens, whatever you do.
I urge you to take the first step, and see where you go from there. My faith in you remains unshaken.
