“[One moment that changed my life was] when my mom died. My uncle had come to visit, and I was all excited. We were at my grandparent’s house, my dad was there, and my grandma got her phone out. We were all sitting in a circle, and she told us she got a call from the hospital, and my mom had died. I realize now why my uncle came to visit, but I didn’t know at the time. I didn’t see her that much anyway, [but everything] was just different after. [I regret] not spending enough time with the people I care about because you never know when you won’t be able to see them again.” — Ava Silva, 9
