Blair ------------------------------------ Dear Mulder, There's something that you need to know about me: this case has brought so many emotions that I don't even know how to explain them. I was seeing visions of the dead. I didn't want to tell you because I was too afraid of what it meant. However, I remember when I first started to work with you, I had a vision of my father when he passed away. When I thought you died in New Mexico, I had a vision of you. I just knew you would come back to me. The thing is: I had these visions before I had cancer. It doesn't mean that I'm going to die. I know everybody dies eventually, but I've been thinking of my mortality lately. I didn't want to tell you how my cancer metastasized in my bloodstream. I didn't want you to know that it could be any day....that I would no longer be at your side. It bothers me, Mulder. I love you so much and it hurts me to think of what would happen if I should die. I don't want you to cry when I'm gone; I want you to think of how brave I was. I want you to remember all the times we've shared, both good and bad. My mother told me how distraught you were when I was missing. When I came back from wherever I was, I saw your smile light up like a Christmas tree. I don't want to leave you, Mulder. I'm going to fight this cancer until it's gone. Your truths will always be in me. ~Scully Feedback: Yes! I love feedback.
