This was last winter in Delhi...hard to believe I'll never see you again...one by one the voices are ceasing on the other side of the phone...there won't be many calls from India now...farewell Emma...I was raised by you and others...with you now, three of the caregivers are gone...solitude thickens with each of these departures...I have always seen you as an extremely active person, always trying to do something for the other...will never forget your strength...I don't believe in afterlife...will keep you within as long as I am around as others who love you will...The end was hurried and I couldn't go but then I didn't want to see you like that...my thoughts are with my aunt and my once-little brother who has become so mature now...
