Sincerely, Isabelle Dela Cruz She reread the letter, the words a cold, sterile testament to a life she was giving up. She read the words, and she felt nothing. She was a woman who was in a state of profound, disorienting shock, a woman who had just had the last piece of her world taken from her. The letter was not just a resignation. It was a funeral.
