Rebecca, 21 years of marriage, best friends, lovers, parents.
To be honest, we didn't agree on this party, having it.
After all it was Jason's idea avid last year and I just felt it was important to honor his wishes and celebrate our life together.
Even without our son.
You know marriage is not for the faint of heart.
Marriage is not for the, for the faint of heart.
It's, (whispering) it's just important to share your life with someone.
I tried to tell him.
Everyone, we have a guest.

My heart just stopped beating, but two miles away, a young man was killed and I received a gift, a heart.
Jason's heart.
(whispering) - I met with Samir yesterday to cancel, I didn't know if this was a good idea.
(sad orchestral music) - Thank you.
