A Letter To Adi

Posted on March 17, 2025March 26, 2025 by sharrada

Dearest Adi,

My sweetheart, you came into our lives on a beautiful Sunday in 2017. Though we were expecting you a month later, you decided to crash and hijack Mana ba’s 10th birthday. Before you were born, I didn’t know that I could love someone as I loved Mana. But you changed all that. You came and you carved out your space amongst our (Mamma, Deta & Mana ba’s) hearts.

A true fighter from day 1, you taught us so much in this short stay with us. Every single day, every moment spent with you was memorable, filling our hearts with joy and happiness. You taught us what unconditional love is. You taught us what empathy, resilience and kindness is. The life lessons we learned with you, have changed us in ways that can’t be expressed in mere words.

I am no writer. I don’t know how to articulate my words. But there’s so much going on in my heart and mind, that I wanted to share with someone. So, I decided to write this, for you, for me and for anyone like me.

My heart aches for you. Now, though you are not here amongst us physically, you will be forever present in our hearts and the memories we shared. I am grateful that you chose me as your mother and us as your family. We are so blessed that we could experience your love.

Wherever you are my handsome boy, Mamma will always love you.

Love you Jan,

Your Mamma.

Hi, I’m Sharrada, a mother and the voice behind DearAdi.com. This space is where I pour my memories and my journey with Adi—one word, one post at a time—keeping his light alive while finding my own path to healing. If you’ve ever loved and lost, I hope my words remind you that you’re not alone. If you’re here, I see you, and I hope my words bring you comfort.
